Is there something powerful enough to manage a married couple while love is on a long for vacation?

Hermes asked:


Ideologically, love will never last every moment of life, and there will be a time that love will go for a long vacation and there is no specific time for it returns. So, when love is not present, what is one thing that is strong enough to manage the relationship between the couple until love returns? What I could think of is a baby, shared possessions or financial saving and Psychotherapy. What is your best suggestion base on your experience and knowledge? Or what is one thing that you could suggest which is strong and powerful enough to keep a married couple together until the day when love return from its long vacation?

What is love and is it just an excuse for justify our selfishness? Can we love for free?

Rafael O asked:


I mean, we love to work ’cause we get paid. We love our families ’cause they take care of us when we are sick. We love our child just ’cause they’re the good side and hope for all of our frustrations.

anonymous asked:


In other words, when women independently decide to have babies out of wedlock and remain single, do men lose out the most?

Another way to put it is, in the traditional marriage, are men or women the ultimate keyholders to marriage?

What makes gay marriage different from straight marriage, fundamentally speaking?

joezen777 asked:


I was reading Pinker’s discussions on government in “The Blank Slate”, and I had an epiphany on the psychological motives for marriage. Let me know if you feel I’m wrong please, but it’s the right to property and inheritance. The comfort in life with knowing that your stuff is protected even after death, that people can’t kill you off just to take your stuff. That you’ve got someone to back you up in the case you stop living. I think there’s a minor paradox with marriage with no kids because what happens when both partners die? But I think that has got be one of our instinctual needs: the need to inherit or own our property even after death. Do you think this is off base?
Honestly, what’s wrong with consensual bigamy? Would it lower the divorce rate?
