Should I marry for a better future — like peace and happiness?

Hey everyone, Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about marriage and what it really means. I see people around me who seem happier and more stable after getting married, and it makes me wonder — should I also consider marriage as a step toward a better, more peaceful, and happier future?

I’m not talking about marrying just for the sake of it, but more about whether marriage can truly bring emotional peace, stability, and a sense of direction in life.

For those who are married or have been in long-term relationships — do you feel marriage improved your life and gave you peace of mind? Or is it more about finding happiness within yourself first?

Would love to hear your honest thoughts
