But then I suppose you knew I'd say that Levitate

As I understand it the idea of love being the purpose for marriage is a relatively new concept .....

I think such emotional attachement to prospective procreative partner as can be called love is likely the evolutionary adaptation to meet only a subset of needs that is socialogically being served by the institution of marriage.

If those other needs are unimportant to you, then marriage is inappropriate.
