Marriage is something that is very influential on someones life. Dedicating your love, support and honesty to a single person is something that not many people can do. The troubles that come with marriage are with honesty and staying true. The different types of marriages include vital marriage, total marriage, passive-congenial marriage, devitalized marriage, and conflict-habituated marriage. The types of marriages that i have seen in my life include a mixture of the listed above. The marriage that my parents participate in include a total marriage. A total marriage is a relationship where the partners are not always together but are committed to staying together for the rest of their lives. There are many times where they fight, but what find of marriages don't have a few disputes. I see marriage slowly losing its value in 50 years. In today's society, people are easily falling in and out of love. I believe the divorce rate is going to increase in the next 50 years.

  1. Hi Lauren,

    I agree that the value of marriage is going to depreciate over the next 50 years. It makes me very sad to think about this as I think highly of the idea of falling in love and working at staying committed and invested in your partner as a team though life. I feel like my generation takes nothing serious and everything for granted today: their rights in this country, their parents (in most situations), other people’s emotions, etc. I think that everyone is in love with the idea of being in love but when things get rough, no one really has interest in fixing problems and working through them to build a stronger foundation.

    Thanks for sharing!
