I'm not an expert on marriages, so maybe it is good to take that into consideration when reading my answer.
There are things that I agree with and there are some others than I don't.
I don't think marriage will free oneself of unpleasant emotions like jealously or insecurities. That's still an inner work that one has to do with oneself, or so I think. Being married will not make one not feel feelings.
Sometimes, one feels insecure or jealous or angry, or whatever, and it is not because of the other person, but because something inside us that we have to work with.
So, I would say that, more than marriage itself, it is the love that must accompany it that can have that liberating effect on the lover.
Because love - and this is my way of looking at love so you may disagree - when it is real, it is detached, it is not as if two people are tied to each other, but as if they are bond together. Then they can feel free and loved.
If you love in such a way that you bind yourself forever, then you are free.
Lovely way to end.
