Sorry for the hi-jack, but I just want to make sure I understand this correctly. LH, you don’t believe adults should be held responsible or accountable for promises they made to remain committed because they were young adults? And you believe marriage is archaic?
I think the point LH is trying to make ( and i'm sure he will reply soon ) is that the average 22 year old person is rarely the same person they are 20 years later.
I am a totally different person to the person i was when i was 20. People change, as do priorities, and in some cases that persons values.
Bingo! Thanks Bside.
When the institution of marriage began people were lucky to live until they were 30.
Now we are living until 80-90. Being in close quarters with the same person for 60-70 years is very difficult.
Either something needs to change or people need to be more informed what this "promise" really consists of for the next 60 years. Of course this is only my opinion.
