Companionship is needed in both courtship and marriage. Old couples will always end up in an empty nest when their children leave home to form their own homes.
“And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.” – Genesis 2: 18
“Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.” – Genesis 2: 24
“Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up. Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: buit how can one be warm alone? And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” – Ecclesiastes 4: 9-12
