Death "til death do us part"

Someone once said that men usually die faster than the woman (forgive me if my facts aren't accurate) and added that in marriage, men have to die for the women.
Now ease up and don't get big eyed on me just yet, I'm not talking a literal death. In Eph 5:25 it says, "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her...".
Right now as I type this I am actually putting to death myself for the sake of a woman who I see as my wife. If you're asking "why are you doing this? You are not married, you're not even engaged...", I draw your attention to Jesus and the church. He is referred to as the bridegroom and we the church His bride. He wasn't married, there's no mention of engagement, the bride still had the option of turning away and rejecting Him... yet with all that He laid down His life for her. It wasn't an easy thing to do, but love stirs a man to give. It is how men were made, to give, while a woman receives. Men in giving receives and this maybe a little hardcore for some, but sex is a brilliant example of it (don't let your thoughts wander too far now, and I will not elaborate any further on this example, it could get too graphic).
My desires, urges, wants, needs, longing, craving, hunger, burning passion, whatever you wanna call it, has to die for now. If you are asking what is the purpose of this, Eph 5:26-27 says, "...that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church (bride), not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.".
In today's world, great love is potrayed in the death of one person for the sake of another.
As this blog is titled 'Life in Death', I choose death so that there may be life. After all God has the power to resurrect, Jesus died to give life to all and then He himself was resurrected and given back the life that He laid down. There is always hope in God.
