A negative thought about marriage.

I get the feeling that one reason people get married is because marriage offers the assurance, the guarantee (no matter how false) that the other person will not stray, will stay committed, will remain devoted to them for the rest of their lives. In this light, would it not seem that marriage is, rather, an institution of MISTRUST?

I don't really believe in the above statement, I just thought it was worth thinking about, for the sake of objectivity and posterity.

i think humans are not a monogamous creature.
i think marriages are for girls.
they usually are happier then the dudes.
nothing last forever.
