Why Rush Into Marriage? If love and attraction are all you need for a happy and long-lasting marriage, why do so many great relationships end in a breakup? Why is cohabitation becoming more common while marriages are becoming less common? In the past, our ancestors usually didn't get married because they loved each other. Instead, they did it to join families and raise children together. Their marriages were usually set up by their parents, and they would start with a betrothal. They lacked the same benefits, rights, and systems that modern spouses in many countries enjoy. Can we say that the relationships between modern couples are better than those of our ancestors, given that mutual love is the main reason people get married today? This book talks about the truths most would-be couples ignore before they decide on their own to get married. Once their marriage becomes miserable, they start to realize that they made mistakes in their choice of partner.
