    Stories like this make me realize my decision to file for divorce at 14 years of marriage was the right choice. I’m happy someone has a wonderful and happy marriage, I really wished mine was like this. Maybe someday.

      Considering a 50% divorce rate and an unknown % of people remaining because they feel stuck, (i’d guestimate another 25% at least) the modern, societal imposition of a happy lifelong partnership feels like a manufactured ideal to prop up the marriage industry.

      “What you call love was invented by guys like me to sell nylons” was not far off the mark for a tv show.
