I go along with this view Cobra. NOP is right. Marriage is not valued over here as it was in the past. The words "Husband" and "Wife" have been politically correctly eliminated and we now have to use "Partner". All tax breaks have been removed from married couples and you are financially better off being unmarried particularly if you have children. I got the distinct impression that the councillor I saw (from "Relate" which is a big government backed agency) was mainly used to dealing with separation issues rather than DBing. A few years ago I wrote to Anna Raeburn, a newspaper relationship expert and was shocked when she told me my marriage was far from normal and to cut and run because "You only live once". SD
