Marriage is a great institution,

[Barbarossa]

Your wedding day is a cracking day out. All your mates are there, they bring you prezzies. You have a huge slap up meal, a few photos, a bit of a knees-up, and get well and truly drunk.

Basically, you are king and queen for a day.

Once you are married, it's like any other relationship. marriage is no guarantee of staying together, of course it isn't. As I said, it's all down to the people involved.

Nothing wrong with marriage, it's fickle people who are at fault.

40% .......Lot of fickle people......lol

Give me some stats of people who aren't married, how many of them stay together.

This is just a state of mind. I heard that on an African news station. It was from the President's own mouth too, which...proves it.

It's like anything,you have to work hard to get the bestest out of it.
It has it's ups and downs,I've found it's no good keeping things bottled up you have to talk stuff through,rows are part and parcel of it.

If someone told you that you had a 48% chance of getting hit by a car when you leave for work in the morning, would you even get your ass out of bed?

P.S. I got hit by a car twice last one is 4 years ago.

There is great risk of getting hit by a car. I'm not sure the average percentage over a lifetime but it's got to be high. It's the same fickle people involved.

Sure, marriage may not be for everybody but a lot of the problem is people that are married fight over one of two things(or both): money and infidelity. Both of which often boil down to a lack of trust (Unless you are just plain poor--that can cause a lot of stress as well). If you trust your partner and are trustworthy yourself, you can work through most anything together. I have been with my wife for going on 10 years -- being married 3 of those years. These last 3 years have been the best of the last 10. You guys can knock marriage all you want, it won't change my feelings for my wife. Being married and having children are the greatest accomplishments in my life. Nothing (my education, my career, etc.) will ever come close to making me feel as whole as I do now.
