I got married because I realized that my wife was my perfect match. I never wanted to get married. I thought the institution of marriage was bankrupt.
As far as I was concerned we were married on the day I proposed to her (as opposed to the day we exchanged vows in front of our friends and family).
We almost broke up for good in January/February 1991... We didn't and as a result of a lot of introspection I realized there was no one else I wanted to spend the rest of my life with...
When I asked her... I asked her to grow old and have kids with me. When we exchanged vows, I promised to love her for as long as I could (I didn't want to be a hypocrite and say "forever").
18 years together and 16 married. I can't imagine being with anyone else.
