When babies come out, yet another uncharted territory. But life is like that. If everything is already accurately predicted, there'd be no point.

nowadays young people see marriage like a hardship, no time and no intend to maintain a relationship or make it work.

The rewards are high but the sacrifices are also high

a stable loving relationship is a force multiplier to life

a bad marriage will suck the life out of everyone

Even for me, if I get a next life, I also want to be single. Then I never have any headache at all. No need to care anything. But then when you die how. Haha

That's why it must be an equal partnership in all aspects, even chores and responsibilities.

Think of it like acquiring a "wingman" or "co-pilot", someone to watch your six-o-clock, take over when necessary, giving you a break too!

Like I tell my kids on my lazy days, "hey, ask your mom; mom's the Captain today"

i think the commitment now is more toward pursuing own interests and hobbies than toward marriage and family.
