Hey what do you think ?

Should wedding vows be kept forever under all circumstances ?

All religions encourage couples to patch up, mend their ways, think of the kids, act responsibly etc. Young couples do face a lot of challenges and these should be sorted out intelligently; perhaps some adjustments can be made too.

If wife or hubby does not like the in-laws, then see less of them is a practical solution too😆

Personally I do believe in " Till death do us part" because everyone has their good and bad points and so long as a partner fulfills 70% of the requirements it works for me.

Several reasons for divorce are often based on very weak excuses or due to inexperience in handling situations.

And of course, have consideration for the poor kids.

Religion does not heed separation and/or divorce. Very fortunately, I do not heed religion. 🤓 My whole point really is, if you love them and you see yourself eventually ending up with them bickering somewhere in a suburban garden when you're both half deaf - it doesn't matter if you were in the right mind when you made the vow, you are keeping it anyway. Marriage without love is a disrespect toward marriage vows, which in my opinion are the ultimate responsibility of one's life because that's when they decide to share their lives with a significant other and make a life together, have a family. It's all, pretty heavy. If I ever find that kind of conviction in me to make the vows and keep up with em, I'd be a believer of 'till death do us part'.

This will be my wedding song...

Willst du bis der Tod euch scheidet
treu ihr sein fr alle Tage?

Nein

Willst du bis zum Tod, der scheide
sie lieben auch in schlechten Tagen?

Nein

Translation

Do you want, until death seperates you,
to be faithful to her for all days

Do you want, until death, which would seperate,
to love her, even in bad days

This should give some indication:

Difference between FINISHED and COMPLETE:
Finished and Complete: No English dictionary has been able to explain adequately the difference between the two words.

In a recently held linguistic competition held in London, England attended by the best in the world, Samsundar Balgobin, a Guyanese man from Bachelors Adventure, was the clear winner with a standing ovation lasting over 5 minutes.

... Here is his answer which made him receive an invitation to dine with the Queen who decided to call him after the contest. He won a trip to travel the world in style and a case of 25 year old Eldorado rum for his answer.

His final question was this... How to explain the difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED in a way that is easy to understand. Some people say there is no difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED .

Here is his astute answer ... When you marry the right woman, you are COMPLETE. And when you marry the wrong woman, you are FINISHED.

And when the right one catches you with the wrong one, you are COMPLETELY FINISHED!

Well generally I think we came alone and we have to go alone too .😆

In ancient times women used to perform the sati. Fortunately it has been stopped .

Generally most guys fool around and they still love their wives too.

Given a choice they would have several wives, or girl friends. Some cross the line momentarily and make a U-Turn back home; bury the past and move on.

I presume it is the same for most women too.

But then Society does not accept most women having multiple husbands. But to be fair both men and women should have the same rights.

So if we are never complete we can never be completely finished.😆

The culprit is actuallly the uncontrolled mind.

It wanders and flirts and will never rest still.

It may be true that we need to love ourselves first inorder to love another . If we are in a deplorable state then we may end up hating the whole world. To love ourselves some understanding of life and death etc will help.

Well religion is a general guide and should make room for exceptions.

The issue of same sex marriage has been a hot topic here.

It is always useful that some rules and regulations are followed in all matters, if not things will get pretty messy.

During the initial years a fair bit of adjustment is required from both sides.

It is easier if both the partners have similar religions or respect each other's religion or beliefs.

@Bold: Guidelines leave no room for exceptions and that is why same sex marriage is such a hot topic. I do not see what objections one can possibly have about two men or women marrying each other. How is it their business? 😳 But given we follow the same set of rules, somehow this does become their business. That's why I don't find these rules useful.
