It used to be that way. It should be that way. You are taking a vow right ? But
not many people can live up to those standards. That’s why the divorce rate is so high. What bothers me is how quick someone is willing to give up on their partner. Many marriages take place in youth for all the wrong reasons. Too immature. But a couple should grow together, not drift apart. There are instances where a definite mistake has been made. The wrong person , the wrong fit. So should it be forever , yes , in idealism , but the chances of that happening in reality are about 50/50.

“Who believes that love is a CHOICE and not a feeling?”

I don’t believe love is a choice like deciding which car to buy. It’s definitely a
feeling based on our “right side” , or emotional part of the brain. If we used
the “left side “, ( our prefrontal cortex ) then it would be a decision based on choice. “Love is blind” is a very accurate description.

“Who believes that hard times are what make the good times so great?”

All I know is that making love after an argument is the best feeling I’ve ever had. Going thru hard times should make a relationship stronger, BUT doesn’t mean that down the road one of the partners , for maybe even the silliest of reasons, may want to call it quits.

“Who believes that divorce just isn't an option?”

It used to be that way , but not nowadays. It is an option , due to many
different reasons and circumstances. Some things are just not meant to be.
Or some things get broken, like a heart , due to many possible reasons ,and can never be repaired. I USED to believe it would never be an option. But that was a long time ago , when my heart dominated my brain.

And how???? Go....
How ??? You BOTH have to decide to make it work. No matter what. Plus ALOT
of love........A love that for many , is beyond their capabilities.
