Usually the idea of marriage comes from a romantic idea of building something together with a partner.

If you ignore the romance, and only consider the practicalities, there is no good reason to get married. It doesn't offer significant rights or benefits and mostly puts you at risk and restricts your option.

Me, I've been married, and I know I'll likely do it again. Not for personal gain, but because I'm a fool who believes in love.
