(Continuation from yesterday)
そもそも「結婚の前提に恋愛がある」なんてきまりはないし、そういうトレンドは、ごく最近のことです(まだ100年は経過していないだろう)。
Above all, there is no rule that a love affair is a condition for marriage. The trend has happened very recently, ( the 100 years has not passed yet.)
恋愛至上主義の概念で凝り固まった世間から、
If you are asked from the persons who are love supremacist,
「なぜ結婚するのか」
"Why are you going to get married ?"
と問われれば、
it is enough for you to answer
「そこに結婚(という概念)があるから」
"Because they are there (or the concept)"
と応答すれば十分です。
なにしろ、「なぜ山に登るのか」と問われて、「そこに山があるから」というふざけた応答が、世間に受け入れられているくらいなのです。
As you know, when a person was asked "why do you clime mountains?", the person said "because they are there", which was a very ludic answer. This answer has been accepted in the world.
「これからずっと一人で生きていくのも、ちょっと退屈かな」程度のノリや、Facebookの「いいね」ボタンを押すくらいの軽さで、十分だと思うのですよ。
I think that there is no problem that you can decide the marrige for the reason "it might be bored to live my life alone". So you could do it like pushing "good buttom" of Facebook.
もっとも、『赤の他人と一緒に生きていくなんぞ面倒なことは、まっぴらごめん』という人は、別ですが。
Of course, a person who think "I never like to live my life with another person", don't have to try it.

就職もして、結婚もして、家族がいて、―― そんなお前にとやかく言われるのは、不愉快だ、という人も多いでしょう。
Some people might say that "you are really an offensive fellow, because you have already had job, wife and daughters."
確かに、私は、
Certainly,
聡明で美しい妻と、可愛く知的な二人の娘を持ち、社会では、一定の収入を会社から貰っている、サラリーマンの江端です。
I am Ebata, having a bright and beautiful wife and two pretty and intelligent daughters, and giving constant payment from my company.
「リア充」です。
I am a person who is satisfied with my real life.
だからこそ、分かることもあるんですよ。
Therefore I might understand it.

もちろん、これだけでは納得できない人が多いと思います。
Many people cannot accept what I told the above.
So I have already calculated the capability of your happiness by marrige on this site.
結婚はギャンブルです。
Marrige is gambling.
しかし、確率的には、十分に賭ける価値のあるギャンブルです。
But it is worth of trying for your life, from the view of the possibility.
