Re: what is marriage? and when one can consider it failed?

Fair enough. But I doubt anybody would seriously enter into a marriage purely to get away from Aunt Mildred's awkward questions every Boxing Day, would they?

People aren't as stupid and impressionable as some on this thread would like to think...
to be honest DB, i know of 3 good friends who married purely because their biological clock was ticking - one has a great marriage, no kids (they tried but couldn't have any but are happy)
one has 3 kids (twins + 1) and are happy in love & with the kids but are heavily in debt, the other is not in love but has 2 kids and the husband is rich, so in that sense, she is happy , So it happens in all sorts of ways...
