Is marriage the real measure for true love?
No. Your ability to effectively communicate your love and their ability to effectively communicate their understanding of your love for them, and reciprocate, would be a "real" measure for "true love." Can one love without without focusing on marriage,?
Depends on how you are defining "marriage." But yes. You can't love without organically, naturally, "marrying" them if you define marriage as pair bonding. You don't have to focus on it, it's going to happen, that's just how your body works. If you define marriage as the social contract you get your social group (family, friends, society, culture) to validate by recognizing your declared union, then it depends on how reliant you are upon your social group for your own identity/image. If your identity/image has been defined more by conforming to your cultural/group dictates, then no, "one" can't love without focusing on marriage, if that culture is one that defines the necessity of love leading to marriage. |

excuse me can i share my own opinion... i think people getting marriages because they love each other.. and marriages is legally yes. but marriages is just an option. because even though your marriage .or marriage is not an assurance to hold someone... thats my opinion correct me if i am wrong... the main point is love and respect..

marriage is what peopel were tought is socially the meaning of love but you do not need it or it is not the defenition love is your actions not the words spoken.Dont tell her you love her show her make her feel it show her what a beautiful women she is your friendship companionship the mutual respect trust you built over time for one another.Words have no meaning without action you can tell her how you feel but if you never show it they mean nothing.Dont just say hi babe grab her kiss her like you have not seen her in years my point is you ddssont need a title or a ring to show her your love you have in youtr hearth for her

Actually, in a way, yes, in another way, no. If you first remember that love predates marriage, and that marriage in turn predates FORMAL LEGAL MARRIAGE laws. What I mean is, that love without the support of personal principles of caring and continuous dedication, isn't really the sort of "love" that most people think well of. So if you exchange the word "marriage," for something longer and functionally descriptive, such as "serious dedication and devotion to each other's lives," then I think you've got it. I was gonna write a very similar thing, haha. Also, marriage is (supposed to be) from love, you don't marry for the hell of it. I think many who say "not anymore" aren't fully able to love again because they never truly got over their past relationship. So yes, it certainly is connected to love, commitment and so on. I personally pass men who say they're not interested in marriage anymore as to me that's an indication he won't be able/willing to love me and commit to me as he did to his ex wife. If he doesn't love me as much, or more, I don't want him. |

Can one love without without focusing on marriage,??just thinking loud  
It is a much easier decision to live together in a sexual relationship than it is to decide to marry, because it does not have, or require, the same level of commitment in my opinion, just the fact of no divorce if it fails makes things a whole lot simpler, you haven't committed yourself to anything. |
