Reply To: What exactly is the point?

Mostly, though, we’re human beings, and despite our idealism, we have real emotional needs, such as to feel appreciated and cherished.

So that’s really my question, should your emotional needs come before your spiritual fulfillment of Hashem’s commandment? If emotional needs are more important, than what is the point of marriage, because obviously it is not because it’s a commandment…

You must understand though that I may be at a point of disadvantage as I am not married.
