Reply To: Divorce in the jewish community

I dont have the patience to read through all the previous posts but will make the obvious point anyway: couples are getting married too quickly, barely knowing the people they marry. Scary thought that a couple dates 4,5,6 times and make a lifelong decision. How many stories have there been of a couple who knew on the wedding night that they made a mistake? Such pressure to get married, fear if they don’t accept a proposal they won’t get another chance, and the prevalence of divorces making it more acceptable all contribute.
