A marriage is a lifelong commitment between both husband and wife. The marriage is symbolized as lifelong by the giving of the rings. The rings are circles, which have no breaks and are never ending, which should be like their love for each other. A marriage should be “till death do us part” which is not leaving the other partner in times of need. There should be no divorce in a marriage because you are breaking the promise you make to your partner and to God. In a marriage if there are bad points both partners have to work through it together as a team. There is only one religious way to break up a marriage and that is to get an annulment.

A Christian marriage is exclusive in the sense that you give yourself to your partner, you offer yourself up to your partner. The marriage is a commitment of the love they have for each other. This is shown in the mass when the couple agrees to love honor and obey each other forever. The marriage is also giving yourself up to the other by not having sex before marriage and on the wedding night it is given up to each other. In a marriage you should not commit adultery, as it is a sin as you will be going against your loved one and Gods laws. The temptation is believed to be a test by God in some people’s eyes.

When looking for a partner in life, that person should have a kind heart, understanding, and most of all someone who is always there for you when you need them the most. For example, if a person is crying, someone who cares for that person would come along and try to comfort the one that is depressed or in pain. The person should be loyal as well as honest, if ever there is a conflict between one another, and that person should be understanding. One should also show signs of devotion, and they must be committed to their relationship, in order to be a good companion and a good partner.

In a marriage if you want to have sex and you don’t want the woman to get pregnant the Catholic Church says you should not use any form of contraception i.e. condoms or the pill. The Catholic Church believes you should use natural family planning.

When a Christian couple are trying to conceive they forget about natural family planning and they can have sex
