IS MARRIAGE REALLY A MUST?

SHAWN

I won’t lie, I love relationships, I get this feel-good emotion whenever I see couples in a sweet relationship; it’s lovely seeing people in love; and that’s just ordinary relationship, talk more of marriage.

Marriage tops it all; when two people decide to commit themselves in a bond that should last forever, and find happiness in each other, it’s a great thing.

No one really wants to be alone; no one wants to get to an old age without that special somebody; so in that sense it’s more like marriage is a fulfillment.

But is marriage really fulfilling? Is marriage really a must? People who have faced divorce or who aren’t enjoying their marriage won’t agree with all the importance attached to it. But there are also people who have not just found fulfillment but great fulfillment in marriage, and they would tell you that there is nothing better than marriage. Back home, the craze for marriage has made young ladies in their teens and early twenties to rush into marriage as well.

My take on this is quite different. To me, marriage means different things to different people; everyone have what they want and what they expect from marriage; to some people marriage is a must and to some it isn’t, you should be the better judge of what you want in life, and what you think would make you happy; if you feel you would find happiness and fulfillment in marriage then so be it, and if you feel you are not ready for such huge commitment, then so be it.

The most important thing to note is that you are responsible for your happiness, so you shouldn’t let someone else determine what would make you happy; it’s better to be alone than to rush into a marriage that would make you unhappy. But if you see that someone that you know you can’t live without, what are you waiting for?
