And what would your ideal marriage be like?  Trusting, committed
relationship?  Lasting how long?  Forever?  Several partners involved?
For myself, I have been married for 7 years.  I love my honey more 
now than before.  Sure, we've had our problems..who hasn't?  But a 
truely idealic marriage doesn't exist (except the Beavers parents
marriage) and who really believs that type of marriage exists or
ever existed.  A good marriage is possible, but not without bumps.  I 
Don't think the type of marriage that won't make /you/ ill EVER
existed.  Sure you can quote me statistics on divorce rates and such,
but there would be just as many then if it was as easy as today to get 
one.  If two people want to make it work they can...yesterday, today,
AND tomorrow.
My point:  I'm not really sure....
