Because most people marry too early, people need to take time to get to know their person and then marry them, it’s simple but I guess not so simple..

@Moneyonmymind You said the truth but as you said many want instant things...
They are follow their emotions...

It's pity!

@Moneyonmymind I met my wife when I was 15, she was 17. We married 4 years later. Been married over 56 years. Most of our communication for the four years was by phone or letter as we lived 20 miles apart.
Part of today's problem is lack of commitment

@Moneyonmymind marriage is hard work. I remember back in 75 when we had been married almost 8 years and a friend of mine was over. He was going through a divorce.
My wife and I were arguing and he commented "Jo and I were married for 6 years and never had a fight."
My wife and I in unison replied " There is your problem, You didn't know each other."

People that are married have two brain controlling one machine. Arguments are how you get to know each other and melt into "The two shall become one."

My wife and my reply to our friend was in one voice at the same instance.
