There's really only one reason to get married and that is to spend the rest of your life with the person you love. Some are lucky to find not only a life partner but a soul mate. Many long lasting couples describe each other as best friends, but in many cases that comes as their relationship grows and matures. So what about if your love is your best friend? Should you marry them? Here are some reasons why the answer to that is a resounding yes.
1 Love
The first reason is plain and simple; there isn’t a much bigger form of love than somebody who is not only your partner but your best friend too. Put a ring on it and lock it down!
