<strong>I begin to wonder, maybe marriage is not for everybody... love and trust are fragile things, so difficult to maintain, and so easy to break; yet, without them, how could a marriage be successful ?

I wonder, maybe this modern marriage system is just not suitable for everybody... more than 50% ended in divorce, majority of the other 50 are not happily married, there's only a few good marriages. maybe what we need is a better system ? why should we be restricted in a system that's not working ? why not change it or invent a better one ?

where this modern marriage system come from anyway ? how did it evolve ? what's life like before it ? were people happier in ancient times ? anybody knows the history ?

The only problem I see with the modern marriage system is:
- It's too easy to financially entangle yourself in marriage... and painfully hard to disentangle in divorce. Seems like marriage and finances are two swords that should be separated like politics and church... or at least make it way harder for married people to become financially one.
