Marriage

One of my newly engaged friends asked me why I enjoyed being married and my answer was simple, very simple. I said in one word, support. Yes, I said it, my reason for loving being married is support. I love knowing that no matter what my choice is that my husband will support me, and help me achieve whatever I want.
I know for me that getting married was one of the best decisions I have ever made, and I am truly still in love with him. Some benefits of being married is that you live longer. You always have someone to talk to, and to listen to you. You get sex. Well, initially. This decreases over time, which is to be expected with any relationship, not just a marriage. You get more back in taxes, which is always a nice benefit in April.
I guess to everyone a marriage is a different thing, but to me it’s a long life commitment to each other that you vow to always be there for each other, no matter how bad the situation can become. Because if you can make it up from rock bottom with that person beside you, then you can make it to hell and back … so good luck :p
