How do you feel about marriage?

But I'm not married yet. In a partnership only. Does anyone agree that financially couples should be able to take care of one another without asking anyone else for help? Do you feel that both should be responsible enough to keep a car, keep up with important bills etc. I know some fall on hard times, getting laid off, accidents but there are personal reasons why people choose not to marry.

I am 45, never married, by choice. Father divorced when I was 17, and lets just say he did not set a good example. Various factors prevented me in engaging in any sort of romantic relationship, so I stayed single. I moved to a different country, got my independence. Now, I don't feel it is the right thing for me. I am happy being single; as an introvert, I can't imagine having to share my private and personal space with someone else 24/7.
I have also fallen victim to the anti-feminist, MGTOW, ManoSphere propaganda, even though I live in a more traditional country in Eastern Europe.
