    "not for love"...

    i totally agree that marriage needs practical, intellectual, emotional and spiritual compatibilities to work. but imho love is the glue. real love gives the couple the strength and desire to fight through the ups and downs together and love/cuddle up at the end of the day.

    I can't say that I agree with this...for myself. What keeps me in a relationship and is the glue is responsibility. If I love, but feel no obligation to the relationship, it's easy for me to get distracted and even just let things float away. I have to have some kind of relationship agreement or some kind of relationship understanding for me to put in all that work. I've loved people who I had no intent on marrying and still til this day wouldn't marry them.

    Now, it's not to say that I don't feel attracted to this guy. I DO like him...lol. It's not like I don't feel anything at all. I just know that it's not a "love at first sight" type of thing. Like, I'm not infatuated out of my head about this guy. That happened with one person, so I know what that feels like. lol This is not that kind of thing.
