ABC News: First Comes Marriage, Then Comes Love: "'Marriage is about a life partner, not a life-saver,' she said. 'I think we have to change how we think of marriage. Marriage is a long-term partnership. And the problem is, a lot of times, we drift into marriage like it's a summer fling and then we're surprised when it doesn't work out.'"
It's an interesting headline and a whole subject on it's own - but I really like the quote 'Marriage is about a life partner, not a life-saver"- just a few words say so much. For many years I followed (unconsciously) the path of looking for a 'life-saver' to marry - and guess what - that's right - he DIDN'T save me!! Surprise! Surprise! If I knew what I know now about how to create a great relationship I could have saved myself a lot of pain.
