Is Being Love Good Enough To Get Married

HI Nairalanders,

I will really like to know if being in love is a good reason to get married. Guys can get married to a girl when they are really in love but i don't thing the ladies will get married to a guy if they are in love thats if they have ever been in love. Something else must be attached before that.

ah ah dats not nice o, its a normal thing to marry who u are in love with for both sex. or am i not right abt dat

if u really love the person than u can,but i dont really know for now

yeah, love shld be enugh for now sha except for some unfathomable reasons

BEING IN LOVE is one of the best reasons to get married. Do u wanna marry someone u don't love?

And if you are in love at a tender age when you've not achieved anything, i don't think being in love is GOOD ENOUGh reason to get married. Love won't put food on the table oo.

Hmmmmmmmm every one seems to have given the answer but i think there is more to marriage than the love factor (alone). You cant marry someone you dont love but sometime the wind of love can drift us to the wrong direction i mean sometimes we develop strong emotions for the wrong person even when we know it we cant just help loving that person. But rember LOVE IS BLIND BUT MARRIAGE IS AN EYE OPENER.

geniusmuyi, great answer. I think so to. Love is a major factor but this marraige decision is a combination of so many factors. Very much like having a bow of vegetable salad and a bowl full of only lettuce. I'd go for the whole bowl of salad. What to u think?

Love is one of the few reasons to get married but there other things you should consider alongside with love.
like the saying goes: don't marry becuase you can live with him/her but because you can't live without him/her

I would marry for these three reasons together: Love, Compatibility (with each other and sexually) and Stability (financial and mental.)

love is d first thing dat will bring 2 2gether but, its not d only reason 2 get married.it takes trust, believing in each other and peserverance , above all love love 2 get MARRIED.

@lunafish
Hey! are u sure u will get luv,compatibility and stability in one pack. Think twice.

@ deen
I'm not settling or less. Marriage is sacred and a chair needs ALL four legs to stand. If a man proposes and we only have three legs, I'll either wait or never say yes.

Ladies, aim high so you get the man you deserve.

I would say, love should be d only reaon someone gets married, cuz true love prevals no matter wat.

<sacarsm>

nahhh, sex is d only reason to get married, what d hell is love? abeg forget love jo. if d person is good in bed, marry d person.













now, which other reason will make someone say "i do" if not love, is there any reason to say "i do".
i know that u gonn@ consider, d future and d kids and money matters and whatnot but the primary reason for walking down d aisle is LOVE. there is no other reason. except you're americans that marry just to have kids and cuzz of d divorce money. come on y'all,


sex is so so overrated. damn.

Love should be the reason but todays definition of love (i think) is more complicated than rocket science. it now has all sorts of extras.

love is not the only reason you get married
you can get married to me if my daddy -------mko
and money can buy love too. so add money and love together = married

nahh, she doesnt cuzz she saw it.

itz very good to marry someone ur in love with if not every day after marriage u both will behave like cat and dog

i still believe luv should be the major reason.

@topic, duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh?? then if it's not love that makes two become one, what is it??
knowin eachova for long?? just likin eachova??
NO, IT'S SIMPLE N CLEAR.
LOVE!!!, IT'S LOVE

i think love is not a reason to get married but to get married is a reason to love because u can get married and love the person as time goes on. cos most people that get married were not actually in love b4 they were married but they think they are in love.

So get married and love whoever u are married to.

No, love is not a good reason to get married. When there is no food on the table will there be peace despite there is love. Apart from sex which keeps marriage the next important thing should be means of livelihood to sustain the LOVE.

I don't know about anything else that marriage is based on except love.U need it to have a sucessful marriage.

marraige is an agreement btw 2 ppl u just make sure u know wat u want and make sure d other person knows wat u want u dn't necessarily ve 2 be in luv but dat doesn't mean i m anti -luv
