Let me first state, that this is quite inspiring! Your application to probability is fascinating, and the vows in themselves are inspiring. I will also like to share that I think about marriage quite a lot, due to my want to have a big family and a healthy family structure—but I cannot help but constantly return to this one statistical fact:
70% of the couples that marry these days (meaning, Millenials and Generation X) are subject to get a divorce within a decade. Moreover, if the couple are in their twenties, the time for the divorce is then reduced to 5 years instead of 10.
*I wanted to inquire, without judgement, how do you reconcile with this fact?
I find myself often talking to potential partners and other men whom are married, and most of the time, if they are 3 years in the marriage they report having struggles like any other couple yet I believe 3 years is just not long enough to reach any conclusion.
*(The art of love is indeed a subtle subject during the technological era, where our primal needs are stimulated constantly from the use of technologies. And I firmly believe that restricting all such technological stimuli can be beneficial to any relationship. Previous generations did not have WhatsApp, and so they missed each other truly. They did not have Instagram, and so they did not lust after things they do not have nor did they constantly focused on what is ‘missing’ in their life. They did not have facebook or Linkedin, and so they did not spend the time running the rat-race, chasing passions to prove to others a point.)
(Obviously, I generalize here, please bare with me.)
