marriage………………….?

Richard: marriage………………….?
What do you think marriage really means, a mutual vow to each other? How long do you think marriages should last? Also, i really do not understand, what is the purpose of a marriage? In a marriage what goals would the couple have and the values they would bring?

I think if you are married to the right person it should last forever.

I think the purpose is to share your life with the person that completes you….the person that you can’t live without because he/she is the air that you breathe and makes your heart beat.

The goal should be a lasting relationship.

I know I’m not really helping you here. Sorry. Here is something that I believe every relationship should have to be successful. All of these things should actually just come natural if you truly and unconditionally love someone.

Compromise….it’s not all about you
Honesty…never lie, not even about the smallest things
Respect….always treat each other the way you want to be treated
Intimacy….emotional and physical
Support…always back each other up in every way
Trust…completely trust each other with your life

My husband is the air I breathe….and I make his heart beat. We don’t work as a team….we work as one. He knows what I’m thinking and we often say just what the other one was going to say….and sometimes, we don’t need to say anything at all.

We knew from the second we met that it was love…unconditional, never ending love from the deepest part of our being. And now we can’t even remember not being together and don’t want to imagine not being together.

We got married because we couldn’t imagine not being together and new that we wanted to make that lifetime commitment.

I hope in some way this answered some of your questions.
