Marriage is often called a partnership, but I think we've romanticized the idea that love alone can sustain it. After watching my sister's decade-long marriage fall apart despite genuine affection, I've started to believe that practical compatibility—finances, household duties, parenting styles—matters more than the emotional spark. We say 'love conquers all,' yet the divorce rate for couples who cite irreconcilable differences suggests otherwise. Shouldn't we be more honest that marriage is primarily a legal and economic arrangement, not just a romantic one?
