They seem like "marriage material" to me.  LOL!

True. Married bring nothing but more attachment n therefore more suffering.

We come alone. We leave alone.

I would give up 1 month of my life span to spend 1 night with them...

I have witnessed too many elderly spouses die in grief shortly after their life partner passed away.

Even though I am in my early 50s, my kids have already flown the nest because I married young.  I feel lonelier than I have ever felt in my life even though I still have a lovely and committed wife.

You cannot use the word necessary without saying its necessary for what?

Necessary  to stay alive?
Necessary to be happy?
Necessary to take care of you when you are old?
Necessary to provide for you?

Just asking people whether something " is necessary" is ill defined way to do a survey. It is meaningless  because most will answer NO because you won't die if you don't get married.

On the other hand "eating food is necessary" because you will die.

There are very few things that are absolutely necessary food, water air sleep.

If you never get married, you are still a Gina in Elderly perception. 
You don’t feel paiseh still getting CNY angbao meh.
Only married couple will know what is called commitment.

You need to conquer every stage in life.
You can’t stuck at one stage for too long.
You will become a weirdo in the end.

Your life won’t be complete before you leave this world.
