MarsMan: I also think some people get married because it is "expected," of them, by family, friends and even society itself, and if that is why two people tie the knot (another phrase that gets me, is that a hang mans knot??)then I would say they are doomed to failure before they even begin.

There is also the sheer expense involved, you could end up in serious debt if you go for the traditional catholic wedding, which puts a huge strain on any relationship, before you even walk up the aisle.
hmmm, I see no future in stalking u anymore moping

In general about relationship, friends with 2 girls and this is a true story, as they were walking up the aisle both were thinking of another man,to cut a long story short 20 years on they are happy together. My own person opinion i could not do it. Was at other friends wedding who loved one another and their marriages are gone.As for me i never wanted to get married or have children and that was from an early too. I adore children and have seen them so hurt over parents spilting upjust breaks me heart to see it.

sofarsogood74: "A new report shows a 500% increase in the number of divorces and separations in the past 25 years.
The Iona Institute has published new figures based on Census 2011 called the 'Marriage Breakdown and Family Structure in Ireland'.
Research shows, between 1986 and 2011, there has been a 360% rise in the number of cohabiting couples and a 119% jump in the number of children being raised outside of marriage.
Professor Patricia Casey, said these findings show that the Irish family is changing rapidly."

So does that mean that people are not working on their relationships when they dip as much as in the past or were people more likely to stay in a bad relationship in the past because of the way society looked at people who separated?


Don't think relationships were happier, but it was often not possible to part. But.. First World societies nowadays are also all about consuming and quick fixes. We are raised to want, and then to want more.. while same time no matter what we buy or do, it does not seem to fill some strange emptiness within.
We are also under far more pressure today, due to being constantly bombarded with the media telling us what's 'perfect' and what we should look like. I think people today are far more insecure than what they once were. We also have more spare time to worry about whether we are perfect, and whether we are really spending our life with the 'right' one. We are also constantely shown 'super males' and 'super females'. TV and high gloss magazins are full of them, advertisements and and and. In the past you did not see many different faces. You had your neighbourhood, and few travelled beyond a few miles in their whole entire life. Now we see 'faces' and 'bodies' all the time, ever changing but always with those perfect measurements (photoshop for the win of course a lot of the time). I think all of this messes majorly with the minds of people, and makes them unhappy and unsatisfied with themselves, their lifes and ultimately with their partners too.
