In the world we live in today, is there really such a thing as monogamy? Technology has opened so many doors and provided us with all these windows for temptation that it is hard to believe that there really is such a thing as true love that will withstand the pressure. Everywhere around me, I see people unhappy in their current relationship and feeling stuck (whether by marriage, not wanting to hurt someone, kids, or paid for plans) and it makes me wonder if there are truly happy couples that are still in love years later... and if there are, where are they? Every time I feel like I've finally met that couple that gives me hope, something rustles the curtain and the charade is revealed. I try and tell myself that all these couples are unhappy because the majority of people fall prey to society's push to get married. With marriage on such a high pedestal, viewed as the next step in the relationship or the right thing to do when a child is conceived, most couples get married for the wrong reasons and usually to the wrong people. So, does this mean that since I have somewhat guarded my heart and held out for "true love", that I will be more likely to actually have found it when and if I do marry? Or am I just postponing the inevitable?
