Marriage is a committment. I think it adds a level of security that can allow partners to relax a bit. It's a pledge to take care of each other in thick or thin, whereas, living together or dating are until I feel like leaving. It's comforting knowing your partner cares enough abuut you to want a committed relationship with you.

It can have financial advantages as well like being able to cover each other on the better of the two medical policies. Of course there's the marriage penalty tax to offset that gain.

What's good to have in a marriage? Friendship. You need to enjoy each other's company and have things you enjoy doing together. You're going to be together for a long time and love and sexual desire wax and wane. It's not unusual to fall in and out of love with your spouse several times during the course of a marriage but if the foundation is there, if the relationship works for both parties, you'll weather those storms and become a stronger couple for having gone through them.
