Marriage

Marriage is a strange word and it seem that it doesn't have that much meaning to people.
I know that once there was no such thing as a divorce, It existed but it wasn't proper to get one.
Back then people married one person and stayed with them till the end.
My Grandparents on my mothers side were together until my granddad died of old age.

But what i am wondering is why people get married if they know that it wont last or worse they don't love each other.
I know that i am going to marry the guy that i love and i won't get divorced when things get tough and i hope that it will last until one of us dies like it was with my grandparents.

Would less people get married if there was no such thing as a divorce?

Maybe only people who were really deeply truly in love would get married and have kids.

What would happen if everything would just fall into place and everything you plan for your life wouldn't get screwed up nothing unexpected would come along and ruin it?
Would everyone be happy or would they end up screwing it up them selfs?
Maybe our instinct to see everything fall apart is too strong so we end up ruining everything our selfs.
