It seems to be pretty common.  My brother (24) just recently decided to
get married instead of breaking up with his lover.  (I think he may be
more interested in the tax break than any other part of the institution.)
My lover and I (~30) are probably going to break up because she wants
marriage and I don't.

It is better never to have been born.  But who among us has such luck?
One in a million, perhaps.
