40 % of all Thai married people have a gig.

Wow... some of these answers are so cynical and depressive. I think a lot of people generalize from their own failures.

When you meet someone who you want to marry, you won't have to question why.

Social acceptance.

many reasons .....but one thing..see u on sunday..wink wink

to build a family together.... live together, have kids etc..

For me, I dont want to have kid therefore, marriage is not important. And I dont care what other think as I'm just a normal girl, not the high profile one who have to care about my image if I just live with my partner without getting married etc.

Or getting married coz it's only way to be together for some couple.. esp. those who live in different countries...

Agree with Cosmo,Prue and OutofOrder....and some with babyoiy.

Cause you need to try everything in life at least once?????

got plans Unny ?

i was married twice and divorced twice too ,

but i am just planning the 3 rd one !

Unny I suggest you dont get married to try and find the answer!! Wait for the others to explain instead 555

>>>50% percent of first marriages, 67% of second and 74% of third marriages end in divorce in the U - S - A.

A good reason to get married? No one will ever ask you again ---so, why aren?t you married yet?---<<<

i didn't get married cause i wanted to keep hearing your stupid question...

since you are throwing around percentages why not give them on thailand or any other country?

I guess it seemed like "the one", but it turned out to be the "wrong one".

But I'm still taking applications....

Communication, intimacy and companionship are three of the big draws to a permanent relationship. The warmth of knowing that someone cares and will be there to listen is a common pull to settle down and marry ka ^^
