    Normally we say "until death do us part" and there are many relationships that have lasted as long as both shall live.
    Even people that go through a divorce or two often end up spending the remainder of their life with someone they love.
    Very few people hit a homerun their first time up at bat these days. Truth be told when it comes to love and relationships most of us (fail our way) to success as we figure out who we are and what we want/need in a mate for life. Some folks take longer than others.
    Go to any major public place and you're likely to see elderly couples.
    What happens after death is still a mystery.

      I agree to what you have pointed out above but looking at the global figures the divorce rates are rapidly increasing.The situation here in India is that even the most remote district courts get 2-3 cases of divorce filed everyday which is shocking.

      I believe the #1 cause for divorce is choosing the "wrong mate" for oneself. This happens when people marry before figuring out who they are.
      The #2 cause is getting married for the "wrong reasons". Age, parents, money, unplanned pregnancy..etc

      Well, there are places where the #1 cause trades position with the #2. Bothways, this says a lot about how the scenario has changed.

    You have two chances at a parent - child relationship, once with your parents, once with your children.
    Those relationships always exist, even if you don't participate in them today.

      That is absolutely correct and such relationships are unconditional.Maybe in most people's lives the only unconditional relationship they ever have.
