The Tax Cheapo

To get married or not to get hitched ? That is the doubt. It ne’er previously was the query. It used to be ‘When to marry?’ not ‘why to marry’. For ages women were expected and required themselves to find a hubby young, get married and start up home with kids and a dog, and dedicatethe rest of their lives to setting up a well run house. Possibly because adult females have been loosed from what were once their orthodox functions, that marriage is no longer a top prority and certainly not the only road to go down. In fact some people- both male and women- absolutely hate the idea of marriage, and can’t envisage looking into a partner’s face and promising without question to spend the rest of their lives with them until death do they part. In many ways it’s quite sad, because weddings can be such joyful events- especially when they feature a lovely wedding robe and sky lanterns. But, calamitous marriages can be damaging, financially and emotionally catastrophic, and the most isolating things of all. Though being in a ill-omened partnership is also hugely isolating, somehow with the marriage tag, it’s . Colleagues expect more of a couple when they are officially married and have supposedly spent so much money on their wedding day. They are required to be happy or to at least try their damndest to be so. As a result of this perceived external insistency, many partners feel they have to put on a face and cover their real thoughts. The reason why there used to be a greater amount marriages or why marriages lasted a few generations ago is because couples had no choice but to keep pressing on with their relationship. This is good in some ways, but in others, it is very negative. Yes there were a greater amount of matrimonies, but there were also many more desperately unhappy ones.
