WARNING: This may be one of the most emotionally painful things you have ever read... I'm not joking. It's very bittersweet.

Why get married?

so you can pick up his dirty socks every day for the rest of your life
so you can hold her hair while she pukes
so his mother can tell you how much cleaner her house was when he was growing up
so you can get screamed at every 28 days... like clockwork...
so you can spot treat her underwear
so you can experience the joy of taking care of a 250 pound, 46 year old sick child who looks exactly like your husband
so you can hear him snore
so there is a designated person you could be having sex with but arent't at the moment
so you can have someone tell you to eat healthy, cuz God knows you didn't get enough of that growing up
so you can hold her while she cries her eyes out every once in a while
so you can hold him while he cries a tear or two... twice
so you will never be able to make a decision on your own
so you can try and fail many times to get her to make a decision on her own
so you will have someone else in the house who's always wrong, even when he's right
so you can argue with each other about whether to have children
so you can argue with each other about how to raise your children
so you can argue with your children
so you can tell your wife not to tell your daughter in law that she kept the house so much cleaner when your son was growing up
so you can watch the man you love get old, fat, deaf and grouchy
so you can watch the woman you love remain just as pretty as she was all those years ago
so, someday, you can stand beside his hospital bed and hold his hand as you tell the doctors to...

If you love each other, you'll understand...
