Would this vow be more appropriate instead of making a vow before god to be together till death and then divorceing each other a few months or few years later for whatever reason ?

hahahaha, that is so funny. And yes you are probably correct. I mean you got a 50/50 chance of staying together. But if they said till divorce do you part.....that would be a depressing thought. And leave people feeling very pessemistic. So I would say stick with the old. And hopefully find the peron that you don't feel like you can just live with them...but the person you can't live without.

My friend at the time of marriage there is only one goal, to stay bonded for ever and no any other option like divorce is envisaged. Things do change with the way you stay together and discover each other more, might be better or worse but the primary intention remains one. Both of you should strive to mend things whatever the cost involved. The pastor at the alter can not give you options at the start coz it will spoil the whole meaning of love and marriage nor he was the one who made the choice for you. if not sure of your partner better don`t marry but engage her/him into casual relationship. Always aim for the best before seeking for witness at the alter or before the atorney.

If marriages are made in Heaven, marriage vows are made in a stupor. Naturally, some of them go wrong and lives take different turns sooner than later. It would be interesting to know what the percentage of failures would have been, had the marriage vows been of the other type you suggested.

To check for intentions/outlook, add a prenup. If you are marrying for life, you shouldn't care about it. After 12 years married and then divorced, I can say that I had much more intention to stay married for life than her (vows were not enough).

very good. actually.
Marriage licenses should expire every 5 years. and can be renewed with new vows. just like any thing that requires a license. no more divorce. put the divorce lawyers out of business.

I would like to think that most of us get married with the intention of staying together for life. Sometimes things happen and it doesn't work out, but I wouldn't want to go into it with the intention of divorcing. To me it would be pointless to even get married if you are going to go into it with a negative outlook.

Statistically, yes.
But it doesn't have the same romantic ring to it.
When standing before your family and friends to exchange your vows, it's much better to pretend that your marriage will last forever.

thats kinda peesimistic, like your expecting to get divorce. your not expecting to be together forever. i say stick with the forever part. a lot won't critize you.
