Wow. I'm going to sound totally unromantic here, but we got married because of finances and the fact that we couldn't live together otherwise. He was in the military and we rarely saw each other because the single Marines had longer work days than the married guys, and we'd be better off financially, so we got married. We'd already been together for four years and loved each other, so it wasn't a big deal to us I guess. We just had the vows done at the courthouse, no wedding or anything. We've been married for five years now, and our relationship is stronger now than it ever has been, so I guess even though it wasn't the romantic wedding that a lot of other people have, it's working!
