So yeah, apparently this is how people get married in Skyrim.
If only it were that simple in real life.

Actually, there's an in-story justification for why the marriage proposals are so short and marriage so easy.

It's because life is SHORT in Skyrim. You could get eaten by a dragon, or have your head chopped off, or die in battle, or have a vampire drain you to death, or get mauled by a wild animal, or have your throat cut in your sleep by the Dark Brotherhood, etc.

So people try to snatch whatever pleasures in life they can in the short time they have to be alive, and one way to do that is to "hook up" with significant others rather easily.

The marriage proposal isn't a big production in Skyrim because in Skyrim, marriage isn't that big a deal, it's something you do in order to "seize the day", as it were, and make life worth living while you're alive.

How many times can you say interest in one conversation?

The quickest marriage proposal in my opinion is done with Uthgerd the Unbroken in Whiterun.

- Do the task to get an Amulet of Mara in the Temple of Riften.
- Go find Uthgerd.
- Fight her in a Brawl.
- Marriage proposal option pops up when you talk to her again after winning the brawl.

I got to say, that escalated pretty quickly. :XD:

Really, I must suck at this game, no one wants to marry me...no matter how many dragons I kill; so how do you marry?
I mean is it spontaneous or what?

Oh yeah freaking hilarious, i'm pretty sure this is how it used to go down

You need to buy an amulet of Mara from the temple in Riften. You need to wear it and some possible marriage material will mention the amulet and if you're looking to settle down.
