When you find that special someone, the undulated, over-cliched "love at first sight" sort of thing, many people are head over heels and quite unable to see save for the person they are in love with. As horrible as it sounds, oftentimes marriage is the "lifting of the blindfold" so to speak, whereas both people finally acknowledge the fact that they are in this for life-no turning back. Of course, you can always get a divorce, which seems all too commonplace nowadays, but that tends to be messy, and, especially with children, more complicated than need be. If only people could really think out a marriage and realize it's not just the "Get out of Jail Free" card for sex, but a bond in matrimony that should be taken much more seriously.
On another, happier note, couples do have a chance at success. From young love to a fully blossomed connection between the two, all of humanity has a chance at making it. But, here's the kicker-you actually have to work at it to make it last. Okay...so maybe they don't have a chance of success after all...But in all truth, love is not something that can be bought, it's practically something that needs to be accomplished, and therefore takes much time and effort to achieve, but just as much as any other accomplishment, it is very much worth it in the end to have tried. So, really, all a couple needs to survive in the great big "sea of fish" is to express a desire to make it work, and the ability to try to understand one another.
I am impressed!! You obviously understand more about being a mature adult than most adults do!!The "Cliche" - "It takes work and commitment" is all to true in all things we expect to accomlish.
