Is LOVE a factor of marriage???

For most couples they fall in love and get married because they truly love each other. But, that isn't always the case which is really sad. It is known that some people will get in relationship because of money and the power that the other person might have. It kills me to know that people would do this because you can only get hurt from it. For me this is not the case. I don't care where the guy came from or what kind of money he has. I know that if I truly love a man then we will be just fine with what we have. We don't have to have the best house in the world as long as our love is strong then thats all I can ask for. I am someone that never looks at the past as a factor I look at the present and who the person is. I know that doesn't have much to do with the topic but I believe in my heart that LOVE is a factor of marriage, or at least it will be for me!
