I'm not speaking for all women but every woman I've ever known who has shared details of their personal life . . . women need love. (I think men need love too.) Women are, generally speaking, repulsed at the idea of having a sexual relationship with someone they don't love or don't find attractive. Sex becomes a chore instantly for women who are not in love or don't find their partner attractive. I think there's a lot to be said for marriages based on love and attraction. It isn't all that matters but it is pretty integral. A common worldview is a great underpinning and really most important but to say love doesn't matter and sex doesn't matter. It matters to a lot of us.

Wise words I wish I had been taught growing up. Oh the heartache and pain I would have been saved from. The man I was going to marry, became enraged from paranoid, unwarranted jealousy and beat me for two hrs to "be sure I knew my place and who was boss" two weeks before the ceremony. I'm entirely thankful it happened BEFORE the wedding rather than after, because I had no clue about that side of him. That was the end. I deserve far more than an abusive, jealous partner for life. I'd rather be alone. One thing more that a lot of people don't understand is that you can be alone and not be lonely. One needs to get comfortable with being alone with themselves IMHO before they are ready to be with their life partner. This makes it so you don't drain the other person looking for validation.

Still, I believe that compatibility, respect to each other, sexual attraction, friendship are a great component in marriage. It is difficult to build a life with a person that doesn't treat you with dignity, that doesn't treat you as his/her equal, only think of himself/herself, doesn't speak with you, call you names and hit you and so on.

Wait a minute: if a person doesn’t treat you well, WHY are you marrying that person? Does everyone have such a drastic change of behavior and patterns after they marry? Do they “suddenly and unexpectedly” begin chatting or talking with the opposite sex, start spending money, begin hitting you, talking ugly to you and others or did you just not pay attention to those attributes? People don’t just change, they may put on an act differently in front of others, but you know the “real” them. We have to take responsibilities for our bad decisions and maybe not be so quick to bite that apple, again.

I don't think the problem is marrying for 'love'. The TRUE meaning of love already requires things like humility, selflessness, self control, a mild spirit, and seeking the interest of the other person first. I think a big part of the problem is people replace 'love' with PASSION, EXCITEMENT, LUST...or some other selfish concept...but call it 'love'. And because they do not understand these things, they go into relationships for selfish reasons, and as a result are doomed to fail.

As women have garnered autonomy over their livelihood they are opting out of marriage.

I think the basis to be able to love people in your life is dependent on your moral compass.. right and wrong. If you care about how you affect others, if you care about other people's experiences, if you want to be a help to those around you and vice versa; if the people around you are the same in that way then you will care for each other and connect and that nurtures love versus lust which many couples base their relationship on because they want to use each other to not feel lonely, to feel wanted, to get money, to have a child, etc.. all self centered

I got married and my wife thinks I’m here to make her life easy. I work, I clean the house, I renovate, fix cars, cut grass, shovel snow etc etc and she runs around doing whatever she wants, holidays, dinners with friends, taking courses, going out of town for retreats. I’m her patsy. But God doesn’t like divorce.

See, this is what happens when only one person has the giving, selfless attitude. Please get out of it, sir. No person should be doubly burdened and have to think of thier spouse in this light.

You didn't marry someone who wanted to do for you as you're doing for her. Your mistake. It doesn't have to last a lifetime. Divorce her. Or enjoy being unhappy.

You seem to think that you only have two choices - keep doing those things and be miserable, or divorce. There is a third way - simply stop doing those things. If she’s using your money to fund her lifestyle, stop that too. It’s a two way street and she doesn’t seem to be contributing at all. Let’s see what happens when you stop being a door mat 🤷🏻♀️ being selfless in a marriage only works when two people have the same attitude.

I told the same to my daughter some time back because I married with the same misconception and some how came out of that thought process. Life has taught me a lot of lessons. So, I told my daughter don't search a partner to make your life better but try to overcome your weaknesses on your own. Marriage is just companionship and not a platform to fulfill your expectations.

Love can happen gradually but most important is marrying a good person. If you're with a nice man everything falls in place. Man have that much power but sadly most of them are irresponsible especially in today's generation due to which marriages fail .

Romantic love happens gradually? I must be from a different planet if this is true! Because in my case I can't force myself to romantically love and have a connection with a random man because he's a "good" person.

@@deanna.radiant No man falls in love instantly. Initially it's just an attraction. If he says he loves you in the initial days of dating that means he's love bombing . A genuine man will show care and affection but not fall in love. He might like you as a person but falling in love always takes time. And if you fall in love within no days of dating then that means you're having some kind of attachment problem that may be due to childhood trauma or neglect.

Yes. Not everyone though is able to receive that kind of love; nor reciprocate that kind love... pouring into a person that doesn't reciprocate, typically because they can't receive it to reciprocate, eventually leaves one dry... trauma is so horrible for everyone! Ones that do, ones that get and ones that feel it's affects later... p.l.e.a.s.e. lets love each other better... 😢

You obviously didn't think this through. Marriage is merely the formalizing of the commitment. Any relationship that hopes to be successful, whether formalized or not, REQUIRES commitment and a combined effort from each individual. BOTH parties will have expectations that need to be met for that to work. If you get defensive because the other person in your life has expectations or standards, then YOU are the problem in that relationship.

Love is on another plain of reality, apart from marriage. A feeling cannot be compared to a full commitment responsibility. We decide to be together because we make each other stronger, so it is irrelevant to believe that "opposites attract", in terms of personality. Sometimes people have a lot in common and that does not diminish marriage.

Interesting post; has helped sharpen my understanding no end! The chemistry of love is a moving shifting phenomenon; it’s has to be to address the multitude of chaos created & is how it builds its strength. It’s how our understanding is applied, that its endless purpose for good can be realised. It’s not readily communicable because it’s subject to our individual experiences and understanding. It’s a faith thing; discussed with our Holy Spirit within … the love story we all seek can unfold. It’s a mighty privilege to turn the pages with a partner in a God blessed marriage. Like our immune system, love by its very existence brings challenges. The challenge to gently hold on through all this world throws at us; completely counter-intuitive, however the more gently done the better the outcomes for all. Meek is not weak Love to all

I agree. There are plenty of people who marry for love, then divorce when they don’t “feel” it anymore. However, wanting to make someone’s life better is loving them. I think marriage needs love, just the right kind of love. But I see the point he’s getting at.
