Well, if you did want to consider marriage, I think the best reason to do that is if you want to have children, because I think that fundamentally marriage is a construct to support raising children in a secure and loving environment. And if you're not interested in doing that for whatever reason, or you think that's sometime in the future, just be 2 consenting adults who enjoy spending time with each other. There's no reason to enter into that contract.
