Why marriages don't last anymore ? is it still worth it ?

I assume you heard of a story where this happened. I think it's safe that this reason is a rarity and thus not something worth considering in this discussion.

haha lol i meant that a bad moment is most likely to end a marriage now than it would do in the past, not that reason exactly.

I mean, i always thought Marriage is a rollercoaster-like relationship, so having more nerves to stick through the bad seasons instead of thinking "I don't need this, i can just ask for divorce " is a good thing ain't it ?
 
on top of the reasons people said, possible the biggest, and unspoken one is sexual liberation ruining pair boding

I'm specifically talking about oxytocin pair bonding. oxytocin is the same brain chemical released in dogs when they see their owner and in babies/mothers when they see each other to form emotional bonds. When people have sex, there is a big release of oxytocin in order to help couples pair bond, we (and many animals) evolved this so that people will stay together and raise the children. It is often considered to be "the love chemical." If you've only had one partner, you relate this feeling to them, which is why many people still remember their first partner more than any other. The more partners that you've had, the less effective it becomes, because you are bonded to so many people that it stops being attached to any one person. Instead of relating that feeling to your spouse, you relate it to the act itself. its not just humans that experience this either, oxytocin is released an all animals that participate in lifelong mating partnerships

people think that they are "Smarter" than their forefathers to throw away "backwards and outdated" ideals like chastity before marriage, but theres a fucking reason people did it for millennia.

No relationship is ending because of one bad moment unless it's something big like infidelity or violence.

Just because a relationship ends after one specific event doesn't mean that event is the sole reason. It's likely a culmination of bad shit. No one is getting married and getting divorced just because the husband left the toilet seat up.

Haha that would be some bullshit

But usually what you hear from divorced women is shit like that, "I hated that he did small thing x that i shouldn't care so much about, it was driving me crazy"
 
Hot, young, tight, wet, Internet sluts are everywhere. We are inundated with sex practically 24/7.

That sort of stuff can mess with peoples' brains. I know after scrolling through a few pages of the "unknown babes" thread or Tumblr hoe blogs, I sometines hate my life. Haha.
 
I takes your relationship to a new level. You shouldn't doubt the idea of marriage because of statistics.
Yeah i've always had a big desire to marry and have a bunch of kids, never knew why, maybe because i don't have brothers. will happen as soon as my financial life is estabilished.

Hahaha lol

yeah it is also a big thing for people these days...much easier to get some pussy or just get your nut at home looking at porn or some shit.
 
Because women

My god is my wife a pain in the ass sometimes.

Also the stress of having kids can be a real headache for couples. Parents say to the kids, this divorce has nothing to do with you, bullshit!

But if you are sitting on the sidelines wondering if you should go for it, I wouldnt not do it again, just takes a lot of work, like everything else good in life.
 
The berry is only about relationship drama and movies/tv now.

Time for WR president-elect @Palis to make this place great again.
 
When the man is no longer needed as the money earner then the attraction seems to go at some point and the marriage breaks down.

I work at an after school care where the vast majority of kid's parents are divorced. An intact original marriage is like a unicorn or a relic from some bygone era. Sickens me as I remember my parents getting divorced was my number two fear as a child (getting eaten by a somehow de-extinc t-Rex was the number one, thanks to watching Jurassic park as a three year old).

Meanwhile my parents are going strong, met first year of uni (at 18) and together ever since. The fact my father is the solitary earner while the 5+ mil house is in my mothers name (no prenup) keeps them together like glue lol.

No, it's very 1950s traditional one parent working happy family and it's held the family together better than all these 'gen x can't keep a wife's'.
 
I've never seen any reason to get married I've been with the same girl 7 years living together for 6
 
pre marital sex probably. thats the big elephant in the room that noone mentions. Back in the day people used to wait for marriage and get married at 17-18 years old. There is something special about your first love lasting forever and having your one and only true love. When I had a virgin for a girlfriend I could put up with alot. When a girl is annoying now all I need to picture is some other guys dick in her mouth and all tenderness leaves my heart, I'm out.

Thanks for sharing your point and your parent's example, i personally think they're awesome and i want to have something similar in the future.

Divorced parents everywhere, people having less sense of parental relationship and stuff...With divorce and marriage being so "normalized", we also lose a great tool in the upbringing of a child. Many troubled adults are result of not having a foundation at home.
