RE: Sex, Investments & Why Women Are More Picky than Men
Very insightful post. Marriage is a commitment and requires hard work. There are many ups and downs in our world that a couple must navigate and sometimes even the deepest love is just not enough to endure. It bothered me when my mother, a very strong personality, used to say about weddings that to her they were much like a funeral and that a couple standing at the alter in a state of bliss today would most likely run away in fear if they knew what was ahead of them. Marriage has many benefits and can provide much joy for a couple and in turn a family. Trust is the bedrock of the marriage relationship and should be protected at the highest level because when trust is lost it is very hard if not impossible to retrieve. Falling in love is usually portrayed in a mystical sense which is misleading in my view.
Marriage is a legal prison. Why would anyone need permission from another authority to stay in love? It already smells like a bad deal
