The act of sealing your fate and selling your soul to one person, and then possibly losing everything you own when you get a divorce. Notice how I didn't say if?
"What demon did you sell your soul to this time?"
"Marriage."
A (legal) pact between two people (usually attracted to each other) to stay together forever in a working, two-way relationship.
A marriage falls apart if it is only one party that is willing to communicate and cooperate.
Marriage isn't a word. It's a sentence.
Marriage is part of the penal code. It's a sacrifice, which is why in the past it used to be done at an altar.
A legal union between two people that should not be committed until either person is, at least, in their 30's. Because, let's face it, nobody knows what the hell they want before then.
Sweetie, are you sure you don't want to wait a few more years for marriage? You are only 27 and that guy is a total asshole!
