Also the love and intimacy of a companion that you chose to recognize as your significant other in front of friends and family and the law if you so choose

60% of marriages men are the breadwinner in and 30% of marriages men are the sole breadwinner where 5% women are the sole breadwinner. Most of the assets and finances belongs to the man, you can get tax benefits being unmarried, and you can actually pay less individually with dual income; so the tax benefits doesn’t mean shit. Not to mention, 70% - 90% of divorces are initiated by women. Men are not dumb marriage is a raw deal.

All I want out of marriage is someone willing to commit to making me feel wanted the same way I want to for them

Saying that the only reason to get married is for tax benefits is cynical. Maybe im naive or childish but i prefer to view marriage as a total, lifetime commitment to a person who you love and loves you. Tax breaks are nice, but not why people get married

This guy is half joking there are a lot more reasons, but a lot of them people can just respond with “well you can just do that while your dating”
