Have you ever look at your parents' relationship and secretly tell yourself that you will never allow your future marriage to turn out the same way as your parents'? I have... In fact, I have been constantly taking pointers, what to avoid, what to do, etc. Actually I bet my mom did the same thing when she was my age but things still turned out the way it did. So I guess when my time comes, history will gladly repeats itself?
So what usually happens?
Boy meets girl and falls in love. The "wonderful" courtship starts. After a period of time, they decided to get married for whatsoever reasons (maternity instinct, wedlock, housing grant, pressure from parents, etc). Happy honeymoon follows, and with a regular sex life, they bore off-springs. Then the finger pointing starts. The problem ranges from, who to pay for various bills to how to split the house work. This usually ends up in quarrels, occasional wailing, threats to commit sucide or divorce, a big tight slap across the face and eventually... sleeping seperately. Give cold shoulder to each other for the next few days, then have make-up sex. Everything is back to normal again... Well, at least until the next fight.
No wonder they said that Marriage marks the grave of Love.
