Just had my world rocked this weekend when my aunt came out and said she and her husband of thirteen years would be getting a divorce. Now this concept of failed marriages is something I've seen plenty of times (my mother's divorce, my uncle's failed marriage, my grandmother's failed marriage, etc.) but my aunt's came as a shocker because her and my uncle seemed like they had it completely together. Nice house, both employed, two kids, pretty much living the dream. Then yesterday she says they're getting divorced because she cheated. I'm here like what in all of the ever loving f's, b?
So that's lead me to questioning the odds of a marriage actually going the distance. I know most of you dudes out there are still young minded and are enjoying getting the yambs from as many strumpets as you can, but the day will come where you actually want to be with just one person. But our generation's obscured/redefined the concept of love. Just has me to the point where I'm just seeing marriage as a failed institution and "true love" as an overly exaggerated myth, popularized by pop culture. So often do we forget that The Notebook was just a movie, not a recollection of actual events (I said that to a female and she got pissed
).
I know there are NT'ers out there that are on both ends of the spectrum. Chime in and let us know how you keep your marriage afloat or what caused it to fail.
Freida Pinto, though
