Do you think marriage is still needed in today's society? Why/why not?

i dont think marriage is needed but its nice to have someone you could grow as a person with and share a life with. People are so much more independent nowadays i dont think there is a need for marriage. Its nice to feel secure though with the one you love. however nowadays people don't even care about that they just mostly care about themselves and make themselves happy and no one can get in their way and if they feel like someone is then thats when problems start and divroce time come. It would be nice though to live on your own but i would get lonely.
