Not to put words in your mouth, but "Just get married" sounds eerily close to "someone else will fix you".

Sure, marriage can bring lots of purpose and meaning to your life. It may even 'fix' you, for a time. However, it can also bring devastation. Being betrayed by who I felt was my partner in life nearly destroyed me, and years later I'm still struggling to find my footing.

Relying on union with another person is not, in my eyes, a viable solution for the long term. At best, you're punting the internal work that's truly called for down the road to another day.
