Marriage is old-fashioned!

Historically marriage has been the sign of the loyalty bond between the two partners and signaled to the society that they have "formed" a relationship and "chosen" to be loyal to each other. First of all, I am not against marriage in itself, but the way we look at it as the only sign of loyalty I believe to be outdated. Marriage has been more important but we should rethink how we look at marriage as the only sign of loyalty between couples. I will always respect the marriage, never disrespect or challenge the trust between the married couple. The in my eyes naive thought that marriage should be the same as forever lasting love is hysterical, but makes sense when you realize that people tend to stay in the comfort zone in most subjects. It makes it easier to rationalize. It makes life so easy. Life isn't in general easy. It isn't a fairy-tale. 

Does the forever lasting love exist? For sure. Can we love only one person? For sure not. I think it is time that we challenge this thought and realize that loyalty is something way deeper. We should basically realize that even without marriage, we should be more loyal to what we say or do. This is a cultural, religious and ethnical challenge of a concept that I believe in many ways is out-dated.
