Can Somebody Help Me Translate This?

Trying to help out a friends marital situation and really need this text deciphered. Much kudos if anybody can do this. Thanks!

การแต่งงานของฉันเรียบร้อยดี แต่ไม่มีความสุขเพราะฉันไม่ได้รักเขา มันเป็นไปเพียงเพื่อความเหมาะสมเท่านั้น!!!

ขอบคุณที่เธอเข้าใจฉัน

Have you tried Google Translate ??

I have a good marriage. I was not happy because I did not love him. It is only just to the right!

I appreciate that she understands.

I've tried google translate it doesn't really fit though. I need a native speaker and reader.

Not a native speaker, but here is my understanding of the text.

My wedding ceremony was good, however, I wasn't happy because I don't love him. He is only just appropriate. Thank you for understanding me.

I think that การแต่งงาน doesn't refer to the marriage ceremony.

I think that sentence just means "I am already married", but I might be wrong.

And มัน probably doesn't refer to him/he, but to the marriage. I think the third sentence means: "The marriage just is/was appropriate"

My TGF says การแต่งงาน it is specifically the marriage ceremony, not the banquet, not anything else.

มันเป็นไป... should better be re-phrased ทุกอย่างเป็นไป... The whole phrase, indeed, means that everything is appropriate. Probably, should be understood that the marriage was profitable for both families.

to the OP - why do you want to translate it?

what are you trying to achieve?

It may be helpful to say as further experience/advice may be available.
