Yet another reason gays probably shouldn't get married is because they don't like other people. You may know one (or even several) people who seem to genuinely dislike being around other human beings. They spend lots of time alone, dodging party and event invitations (if they even receive any at this point), or with less complex life forms such as plants or pets.
There could be special cases in which a person still has some level of contact with family or people they grew up with and begins to feel pressure to marry. So they go on the odd blind date or allow someone to create an eHarmony profile for them, in the hopes that they'll find someone that they can tolerate in order to get their family off their back, but still be able to enjoy the solitude that they've grown to love so much.
Unless one misanthrope marries another, this can create a tense relationship. If one person is sociable, outgoing, and boisterous, the hermit-like figure may come off as disinterested and bland. This may lead the more outgoing person to feel unloved and neglected, at best. At worst, the more outgoing person may become abusive, cheat, or file for divorce.
If someone has clung to solitude throughout most of their lives, they may have a hard time navigating relationships in a positive way, including doing things like being thoughtful, romantic, or emotionally supportive. It might be helpful for the person to gain these skills before they are encouraged to enter into a romantic relationship, let alone commit to marrying someone.
