I think that a couple of minutes looking on the posts here should answer both of those questions in spades.

Well the main question to ask is why did they get divorced? They said that they loved each other a lot and then end a relationship? I mean come on? Marriage is an at will now a days. When the person says I do do they really mean it? It seems there are too many miracle believers these days. Marriage takes a lot of work. Are these younger couples willing to work it at? Parents push them to get married because it is an American thing because they want their kids out of the house and then the parents compete to be super grandma or grandpa and if you confront them about it offline or online they deny that it is not true. When a person gets married does that marriage license get filed with some government agency that the couple took the oath to stay married till death to they part? I bet if that if there was a law that if a couple files for divorce for no matter what that they would be fined a lot of money , there would really be less marrying couples.

OP:

Then go out into the world and actually ask these younger married couples your questions.

Remember those couples who married in the 50s, how none of them got divorced? Wasn't that the best time?

So your parents are pushing you to get married so they can be "super grandma and grandpa"? Wow, your parents sound terrible. No wonder you are so weird.

A lot of older people got married during that time period too.

You may want to scrape up some actual facts and data.

What about Don and Betty Draper? They got married in the 50s and got divorced. And Carol Brady was divorced from her first husband. I just don't know what to think anymore.

That is typical with American parents . But that milestone will show then. People saying they love each other is truly only proved if they work at it and survive all those years together. Talking and doing are 2 seperate things
I completely disagree. Been married 15 years and while I don't anticipate that changing, I can't predict it with certainty. There are a couple of issues that have the potential to divide us, but even if that does happen it does not in anyway disprove or undermine how much we love each other, and will continue to love each other even if we were to split up.

People go out into the world and ask those questions. People can ask you that those questions offline to you as well. What will you do if people confront you with those questions offline?
