Some of us grownups get married to have a monogamous relationship with some like minded person of the opposite sex and to create an environment that offers stability and nourishment to our children. I don't know what the other 60% of the narcissistic populace that make their decisions based on social statisitics do
Hear! Hear! As you correctly pointed out, it takes "adults"....one man and one woman, both emotionally & mentally mature
and committed to principles that transcend themselves & their personal feelings. When two "it's all about me,myself, & I" types marry, it soon turns into a 'gunfight at the OK Corral" with each self-worshipper demanding to be the center of the universe.
