My idea of marriage, at the moment, is something along the lines of something you do because a)you are happy with the person you are sharing your life with and simply want people to know you're happy with someone, and b)get some social beneifits out of being happy with someone (I hear getting married helps with your taxes; this, however, should not be your only reason for commitment).
I totally agree that it varies from one relationship to the next, and that more people are hung up on what the "concept of marriage" is rather than what means to be married.
