What even is marriage?

I really don’t understand what the point of marriage is. From what I understand, marriage is simply the government/church approving of your romantic relationship, which somehow makes it “real” or “official” and more respected. Apparently it is also so important that it gives you various benefits. I just really don’t understand what the point of it is, aside from maybe something to do with religion. I’ve also been to multiple weddings but I still don’t understand. Maybe somebody here understands it better and can explain.

Extreme discomfort around romance.

I am extremely disgusted by anything related to the idea of romance. People mentioning romantic partners in conversation or in content I am watching bothers me (unless the person I am talking to is a really close friend). Seeing romance in media makes me extremely angry and disgusted, and feels like it was just thrown in to spite me and push allo propaganda most of the time, not contributing to the story at all. Seeing PDA outside is absolutely disgusting. Romance feels like a sickness to me. I prefer when people censor romance words when talking to me. Romamtic pet names make me feel sick (directed at me or somebody else). Thinking about or seeing or hearing about romance in any way makes me physically sick and incredibly disgusted. Maybe I sound extreme or hostile to allo people but this is how I feel.
