Not to sound insensitive, but here's another way to look at it. At the end of day marriage is like a contract between to persons with expensive "cancellation fees" that you need to consider, exactly like it happens when you sign any other contract during your life. It is very shortsighted to sign a contract without considering every aspect of it, even more considering there is a good chance that things can go wrong. You can still love a person and have a child and give your contributions as a parent without signing a contract, like many people actually do.
