One consolation is that although marriage is often temporary, divorce is usually forever. (unless you're Elizabeth Taylor)
After one marriage and several long term relationships I really cannot understand why a bloke would want to get married,ever.It's not to our advantage.Unless of course her parents are very traditional and filthy rich,like my erstwhile in laws.
The woman gets to wear a ridiculous and usually disingenuous costume, but the bloke gets congratulated on his extreme good fortune which is a fantasy..By that I mean there's no such thing as luck and good fortune,and most people of either sex are quite ordinary once the hormones get back to normal..
What's the point of being with a Brad or Angelina if they're as dumb as a stump? As Oscar Wilde said "marriage is 97% conversation" -Arguably the worst combination is good looks,stupidity and meanness of spirit.
