I could not accept a totally "nude" marriage, but partially "naked". I can forget the shining diamond ring and splendid ceremony but my bottom line is an apartment where we could live our lives in a stable environment. Marriage is not just a piece of paper, nor a fairy tale. It's reality. I totally agree that it cannot survive if there's no material base. Those sad stories of broken couples come as a warning to me that one should have both psychological and material aspects prepared before getting married.
