Removable Couples
I was wrong some time ago when I proposed in another article that marriages were like urban leases, which is not renewed explicitly expire the marriage contract by law to five years. I acknowledge that I spent a good distance, as recent nuptials I know do not last anywhere near that long. You see, if not. The other day we returned to the store where we bought a piece of furniture to make some changes. My wife reminded the seller: "We were here just before her wedding." "Ah, yes, 'replied the other, so calm, So I know that already divorced."
Some marriages are so short that fail or wedding night. And that these are no longer as before, in which couples were blind, now they are more views than the magazines sobados the waiting room of a dentist. Ironic about it not long ago the television show humor semanita Go!, Where the fictional own priest who officiated the wedding before the bride and groom lay a club organized the guests betting on how long it would last for the link.
This transience of relationships, that expiration of the affections, the brevity of the links ... a society adapts to changing and changing desires of instant gratification, quick succession of emotions surface, hard empathy and inability to sacrifice. I am not saying this to be worse or better than its predecessors, but simply that it is different and moves at the speed of cyber information bits.
Understandably, then, that one does not come to remember the name of the spouses of his friends. Just as well, because this way you avoid the contact to the new couple by the name of the former. And it also explains what one feels reluctant to meet their temporary and ephemeral-laws of every moment. When you have become accustomed to them and has taken a liking are replaced by other parents just as kind and friendly than before. A mess, a real mess which today happens to be and all pairs of removable.
