问题     Love is romantic, this is the common truth believed by most people who have not married. But, marriage means a couple binds into a family, which distracts the romance to everyday daily life. The following are opinions from netizens of various countries on whether marriage is worth it.

    Make a wise choice. Live the way you want to because life is not rehearsal. Being single doesn’t mean you have no responsibilities. Marriage can be fun if you know how to make it fun. I think there are more advantages to being married. It matures you!

    Being married doesn’t only mean sharing your social life and having consideration for someone else. It also requires compromise and perhaps patience. Having kids is a whole different ball game. You need to be prepared to dedicate your life to them and put your own needs in second (or third or fourth) place. They are your responsibility, don’t assume that others will always be there to help and don’t expect to be appreciated. If you choose a spouse well, the responsibilities will be shared.

    Marriage is what you make of it. It’s different for everyone, but one thing is for sure: it takes a lot of work!

    It’s all testosterone to start with, but when that subsides you find out if it’s really love.
    You must have an emotional attachment to somebody you’ve lived with every day, regardless, and divorce is the next worst thing to death for most people. The emotional baggage afterwards is a big barrier to loving again. If you say marriage is the grave of love, you’re just a coward not to embrace its pain, challenges and hardships. You only want the easy way out. Sad, isn’t it? But sometimes, it’s true. Marriage has many pains, but celibacy has no pleasures.

    If you find the right person, being married is great Getting up and seeing this person you love is a great thing. Even cooking and watching TV together is sometimes great. But you have to make sure the guy you find is a guy you can talk with. Work out difficult issues. If you cannot really communicate with your beloved one well, then it will be nothing but misery.

    Is marriage the grave of love? It depends on the couple’s behaviors. Women play an important role in keeping the marriage alive and not boring.
Symondsez (Expat in China)
Marriage is a kind of sweet - You eat it, you will regret... you don’t eat it, you will still regret it. This institution called marriage in today’s society is a failure.

    Before I was married I thought I never would be. And now that I am divorced it feels weird not to be married. You spend a decade with one person, it really changes you I guess.

    Actually, marriage is a vital content for a person in this world. Do you know what does it means "Marriage"? My knowledge says that marriage is a result of human nature. We need marriage for complete our general needs. By the way, I will also marry in very early future.

答案 Marriage Coexists with Romance The comments given by the netizens have shown that the responsibilities and difficulties bound up with marriage always affect the quality of marriage and people’s feeling of it. In front of those challenges, some people will pull themselves together and strive for their marriage and some people may just regret it and run away. For me, two factors are essential for the vitality of marriage: one is whether you are ready and prepared to face the responsibilities and the difficulties in marriage; the other is whether you can find the right person for marriage, someone who fits and understands you. Truly, pains and griefs exist in marriage and responsibilities should be assumed in marriage. Nonetheless, the same goes for other relations and issues. You may have seen crises in the romantic relationship, but that will not be an excuse for you to stay away from it. You may have seen others become stressed-out because of the responsibilities they are supposed to take in the work, but you will not therefore do away with the idea of getting a job. Readiness for difficulties is the key to marriage. With it marriage will not become the grave of love. For people who are not ready, graves are everywhere. Moreover, whom you are married with is very vital. The failure in marriage is always connected with the "wrong" person you’ve chosen. There are plenty of cases in which women manage to find the happiness and vitality again in their second marriage. Many of them confessed, what is different this time is that they have found then-soul mates. To sum up, marriage itself is neither a problem nor a burden. If you can stay strong-minded and brave to cultivate your marriage together with a "right" person, the romance of marriage will not fade away. Imagine an 80-year-old couple still kissing each other in their old age. Is there anything more romantic than that?
