I completely agree with this. I don't believe in soul mates - I think some people are more compatible together than others, but I also believe that you need to commit to your marriage every day. We decide to be commited, faithful, and we decide to love each other every day. Love is a verb, too, and it's an active decision.
@SadieBee: Same here, I believe that love is active and means that you have to work at it. When one gets married, they promise that to their partner.
I agree. When times are tough, when you're not agreeing or getting along, when you are angry or upset, you still have to make the choice to love that person. It's easy to have a wedding, it takes effort to keep a marriage happy and healthy. It's a choice.
I always think of Monica on Friends:
I don't think you and I were destined to end up together. I think that we fell in love and work hard at our relationship. Some days we work *really* hard.
I think marriage takes work and isn't always easy.
I definitely agree with this. Loving someone means choosing to think the best about them, being kind, being patient, giving sacrificially. It only makes sense that marriage would be a verb. :)
That is the perfect way to describe it! I think this is the most important thing to remember, and one of the easiest things to forget sometimes. And I agree that anyone can do it - if they're willing to dedicate the time and effort that it takes to make it really work.
Marriage (n.)
The verb is to marry... I'm sorry! I couldn't contain myself.
@BayStateBride: Love what MOnica said !, great way to look at it.
FutureMrsRugbee lol
Hah I was thinking the same thing...you can't "marriage" someone...but the point is good! Soulmates is just so statistically unlikely, I see how people can agree with that if they lead a religious life but without some higher purpose at work, I just can't help but think "what are the odds?"

There is no such thing as "the right guy" or "the right girl". Marriage is a verb, and a daily decision. Anyone can do it
Interesting..
