I see marriage as a traditional legal binding that can alter your life significantly depending on your state and country.

You might see it differently. What does marriage mean to you?

Marriage is something for the wealthy. If you live on welfare in my country and you get married or share a household, you get less money. Also, if you want to marry a foreigner, you need to earn a minimum amount of money, which is unobtainable for a lot of people. This is on purpose to make sure we get less "poor foreigners" here. So marriage is not and never will be for me.
