Why are you getting married?

Why did you all get married? My FH is afraid I'm wanting to get married for all the wrong reason, meaning get married to only have the title of being his wife. Yes I love the idea of having that title but to me a marriage signifies much more then a title. Which I explained to him how I felt but it...

    Yeah this seems like a very important thing the two of you need to discuss and work through. I would be taken back if my FH questioned my intentions for marrying him....

    If my husband questioned why I wanted to marry him, and stayed because I wanted the title, then I would have laughed, and had a nice long talk with him. Couples counseling is a great step to take. I decided I wanted to marry my husband because I wanted a partner to go through life with-all the bad and all the good.

    For a myriad of reasons, including tax benefits and the fact that if I can get on his health insurance I can go part time at work and focus on IVF and starting a family.

    I'm getting married because I love my FH. Because I couldn't imagine my life without him. Because YES I want the title.

    You two should really have an open and honest conversation about this. There's a deeper issue here

    This is a very personal question. FH and I want to get married because we want to make that commitment before we buy a house together and have children. It’s very difficult to explain why because there are so many aspects and reasons.

    We did have a discussion and resolved al matters, he does want to marry me with good intentions and loves me deeply just as much as I love him. I made it clear that I’m not his ex and I don’t plan on leaving him. We’ve even done a prenup to assure his family I’m not after his mommy like his ex. I feel like after this our bond grew stronger and I’m so happy to have cleared this up. We still are going to counseling
