Marriage- Did I really just do this?

Ugh I apologize for being MIA. I was doing so good posting at least once a week sometimes more than that. Things got a bit hectic! With starting a new job and balancing friends and family time plus being a wife and doing household tasks and trying to workout...my blog just was not a priority. But I am back and ready to share my insight on how unfortunately although this is tough to admit, marriage isn't for everyone. Not even for...  all the couples from Married at First Sight.   I am still so disappointed that NONE of the couples made it as a happily married couple. Although 2 of the 3 couples decided to stay together at the end of the 6 week decision deadline, by the time the reunion show was being filmed none of them remained married.   Shocked not so much... I feel like marriage or any type of relationship, romantic or not, is tough. There are good days and there are bad days. These couples were c...

Is it really that bad? Bad enough for all if not most of the participants on Married at First Sight to swear that "Divorce is not an option" for them. Even though they have not met their future spouse, they can honestly say they trust the specialists to have found the perfect match for them? That is something I would be so afraid of. They definitely have more courage and trust than I do. I do not think I could honestly say divorce was out of the question if I were in their shoes. Not only because marriage is tough and sometimes it just doesn't work, but because they have no control over who they are marrying. They are being completely set up... and what if they're set up to fail? Then what... As it is you always hear that divorce rates are at 50%, although that 50% statistic is very misleading, if not completely wrong. The divorce rates are closer to 25% for all first-...

That's all I kept hearing throughout the matchmaking pre-show and even in the beginning of the first episode of  Married at First Sight  from all of the specialists. After a while it started to bug me. I mean how can something so important in one's life be called a social experiment?    But the 6 individuals were in no way shape or form bothered by the fact that they were going to be involved in a social experiment. They were all oh so very eager to become a part of this social experiment as if it were to save their lives. Especially... the women.  Why is that? Why is that we as humans NEED love... NEED marriage?  I mean love and marriage are amazing and I'm glad I have found both. But even if I wasn't in love or even if I wasn't married I do not think I would be jealous of my siblings and parents because they have a significant other, like o...
