Never get married for any reason other than mutual love.

My wife and I were in our early thirties when we decided to get married. We had both accumulated some baggage due to previous relationships that went sour, or just weren't meant to be. After clearing away the accumulated clutter, we knew we were meant to share our lives together as husband and wife till death do us part.

My wife is my soulmate. I'd be lost without her. She is indeed my better half.

A good idea to remember throughout life as a husband, or wife:

Ask not what your spouse can do for you. Ask what you can do for your spouse.

To commit Suicide.

My wife would kill me if I married someone else!

Seriously: We married for love, and because she filled in all the 'gaps' in me.

I think that a family is a sort of business and with the signature of the wedding you start it with the partner you choosed. I really could not marry a person that I don't trust, excactly like I could not start a business with a person that I don't trust. It means that first there must be the basic conditions to marry (money and stable jobs, a house).

So to marry is to transform the relation from a mere "Ok, we love each others and stay together" in a "Now we start this business, i.e. we make a family and invest in it seriously, doing the same sacrifices we'd do for a company". The purpose of the investment is the happyness of all and the good working of the "firm". It the thing works you'll have a good elderly and your sons will have success.

I guess this is the typical Italian thought, that's why in Italy the divorce rate is low. To divorce is like to decleare bunkrupt.
