SO, it seems like we have a slim to nothing chance at it. Everywhere we look we see people breaking up. And worst of all we see couples who have been together for many years fall apart. So why do we do it? Is is because we believe that "WE " have something different. Something that is srtonger then everyone else? Well, im sure everyone thought that at one time.

When I got married, I wanted to stay with my hubby. I wasnt thinking about other things. It is challenging to live with one person forever and deal with the differeces we got but marriage is about dealing the problems and trying to make it through and see how long we can stay together. We look at other married couples and wonder why they cant be like us, we get along so well, we dont think about spliting up or getting divorced.

i believe when people get married they dont think about divorce of failure...they think that its something only happens to the others who share a different bond..not like the one they share.... so i agree with you but i guess its wrong to stop thinking or doing something because someone you knew had faild it,people are different and so the way they handle problems and marriage is the best way to start a family...
