GEN347 At the beginning of time, God commanded the man to leave his parents and take a wife.  Thus, it is part of the nature of the human being to take a spouse of the opposite sex.  According to the Talmud Yevamot 62b a man without a wife is not complete, as he cannot experience true goodness and satisfaction.  The Midrash Genesis Rabbah 22:2 states that a man should not be without a wife, a woman should not be without a husband, and both together should not be without God.  AMEMEI 261
