I was when was reading an article about a male phenomenon called 'the thunderbolt', which supposedly happens to all of us at some point. It refers to the occasion when you set your sights on a girl that just absolutely and completely blows you away despite all rational sense that it will wreck havoc in your life.
Now, with all the knowledge of divorce cases increasing, and how our generation gets bored with their partners faster (than say our parents), would a new form of marriage agreement work?
What if couples sign an agreement; to love and cherish each other, in sickness and health, for 5 years? (renewable upon expiry)
Think about it.
1) With the knowledge that it's a limited time arrangement, couples could likely be more inclined to be better/nicer to each other.
2) More 'together' stuff would get done.
3) Expectations are lower; therefore exceeding them (which simplifies happiness) would be much easier.
4) At the end of the agreed time, you get a choice to continue being married or not.
Of course, children will be an issue. But heck, who needs em.
