Amazing how much more healthy relationships are when you . . .
Have fucked before marriage and avoid any wonky surprises. Don't rush into it at 18. Didn't shotgun into it because of a kid. Can talk about things and have mutual respect. And can marry the person you love; whether it's interracial or same sex. --- "Tolerance of intolerance is cowardice." ~ Ayaan Hirsi Ali ... Copied to Clipboard!

isnt it also that fewer people are getting married, so the ones that actually do get married are more likely to stay together because it's something they truly want?

But arent marriages declining overall? More Millenials stay married probably because theyre picky about marrying to begin with.

Also, weddings are fucking expensive. That's one very good reason to opt out. Especially in today's economy. --- I like my beer cold, my TV loud, and my homosexuals FUH-LAMING! - Homer Simpson Don't be a turd. - Chris Pratt ... Copied to Clipboard!

Not to mention that for the longest time it was considered highly taboo for couples to live together and not get married.

thanosibe posted..."Onky". Well I learned something new today. :-)Anarchy_Juiblex posted...Amazing how much more healthy relationships are when you . . .This feels like it's an attempt to have a gotcha moment on how other generations have gone about relationships that have turned into marriage. But none of this nonsense is mutually exclusive to any one generation. Not not true of another. But that's still not a new thing. Marriages have been going on in the western world that are not necessarily financially stable for many generations. I know my parents struggled. I never went without but I didn't have everything I wanted. I think the financial part of marriage is rarely given much thought not matter what generation, when the emotional part is at a head of it. HylianFox posted... Darkman124 posted...I'm 41, so I guess depending on what source you check I may or may not be a millenial, but I married at 23 years old. We also, at the time, went before a judge to get married. We plan on doing a ceremony at our 25 year mark, when the kids are most likely out of the house and we can justify spending money on it.The main thing i see is that onky financially stable couples are marrying The only thing I really see different in new generations than mine, is that most young people just aren't interested in marriage itself. But they still may be seeking on monogamous relationships. And that's great. It's not my business whether two people get married or live together. --- I think I need a drink.

Man, people need to get over themselves with this millennial blaming target they've put on their back. This article has no accusatory tone whatsoever, but people are still more than eager to rush in here acting like the world is insulting millennials once again.
Nobody actually gives a shit if millennials don't go to Applebee's, or other old people shit. Articles only post that shit for clicks, and I'd be willing to bet the majority of said clicks come from self-induced raging millennials themselves. --- Oops, I dropped my monster condom, that I use for my Magnum dong ...

Baby boomers set the standard of being married like ten times each. Thats not appealing. They are also famous for being poor at communicating.

But none of this nonsense is mutually exclusive to any one generation. Not not true of another. It is because generations. One thing people always get confused however is that it doesn't necessarily mean it is about the people, but a culmination of everything else like culture, environment, economy, technology, expectations, socio climate, etc. Also note the article also talks about both Gen X and Millenials playing a role in the lower divorce rates, with divorce being higher for Baby Boomers and it makes sense why. Back then, for the baby boomers, it was a standard and obligation to settle down to for a family and get married as soon as possible (not to mention starting a family was much easier because of the economic situation, hell you could raise a family and buy a nice house with minimum wage back then). Also with the puritan view they had on marriage in general (until death do us part), even if they were unhappy about their marriage, getting a divorce would be the last thing that's on their mind. Most of baby boomers now are getting divorced at the ages 50-65 because now they know they're not obligated to stick to their marriage because too many of them got married too fast to know if the relationship would work. Of course this is all about generality, not every baby boomer fits in the situation I'm talking above but it does explain why they had a higher divorce rate compared to other generations, because at times it's not even their own fault. Generations mostly have to do with being born in a certain time frame, if most of us were born in a different generations you can expect our behavior to fit more with that certain generations. It doesn't necessarily mean one generation is better than the other. --- It's what all true warriors strive for! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Good, now angry CE users can stop saying "51% of people get divorced! Marriage is a scam! I'm high-IQ for not getting married." So glad I'm getting married to my 18 year old girl.
