    right on dogby.
    In the modern world, marriage is for the weak.

    It evolved from a tribal-based business deal that bound two families together (economies of scale), through the ages of religious control of society, to present-day commercial interests that trade off the historical precepts and the psychology of marriage.

    The psychology of marriage worked in the age when people made the the seemless transition from adolescence into marriage - they never left 'home'. They remained dependent on some other human. I guess it works when everyone is doing the same thing.

    The concept of marriage today is not only a shambles - it's an anathema, and the root of alot of unhappiness.
