  My wife and I are the most boring people imaginable - and have been happily married for 20 years. 😀 Our expectations of each other have always been low, and these very low expectations have always been perfectly fulfilled. 😄

  Loss of the extended family is a massive loss to society.

  Most people do not have the mental stability, calmness and patience for the monotony and stability of a traditional 50 year marriage. If you're someone who needs drama, chaos, excitement, thrills, spills, etc hook up culture is probably a better option. People need to figure out their psychology and then choose marriage or hook ups.

  My parents ARE all things to each other and it&apos;s friggin weird. They tell each other everything, support and confide in each other in every way possible, and still look at each other like teenagers with lovey dovey eyes even after 41 years of marriage. As I grew up and became an adult myself, I realized just how <b>shockingly rare</b> this type of total compatibility is between spouses, and that my folks are the exception, not the rule, for what a marriage looks like.

  Marriage is a partnership with roles, responsibilities and expectations, not a never ending romance.

  Marriage is primarily a financial arrangement. That’s how our accountant explained it to us forty five years ago. We found it both helpful and amusing at the same time.

  At 29, I was ready to give up looking. &nbsp;Then, suddenly, in a mixed social group, my perfect match walked into the room. &nbsp;I wanted to be just good friends, but it wasn&apos;t to be. &nbsp;We have now been uneventfully married for over 50 years with 3 daughters. For all of them, it was love at first sight, just like us. One started as a blind date! &nbsp;At the wedding, the couple who set it up said they would &quot;quit while they were ahead.&quot; &nbsp;My most remarkable story is of a man happily married to a bystander who came to hear him play at a gig. &nbsp;The moral is: never give up hope; one never knows!

  Love the theme - marriage needs to be built on simplicity, pragmatic open mindedness, and humility.

  Experienced divorce attorney here. I approve of this video. Most people have no idea what their rights and responsibilities are under the law when they get married. Nearly all people have no idea how difficult, stressful, and expensive a divorce can be. I suggest that you focus on &nbsp;becoming the very best version of yourself. Do the things that bring you joy. Level up in all areas of your life. You can still have terrific intimate relationships and even have children without bringing state law into your life in the event the marriage becomes non-functioning and someone files for divorce.

  Absolutely true, I think that’s why everyone gets divorced 35-40. That’s when families stop being social, and friends grow apart
