Marriage in today's western civilization does not work for couples in the 20's. Statistic show that most marry on a whim, and don't really take the proposal under intense consideration.
But the marriage from old is different from the marriage of new. I believe marriages don't last because, today, we have the option to not stay in the marriage if time reveals that what was once thought to be true, becomes false.
Interesting enough, as they mature, they begin to truly filter who they want to be with and start living by their convictions; yielding themselves to never compromise their beliefs. This, in turn, opens up the field to new type of partners that believe what they believe. Indeed it is true that co-habitation has increased tremendously over the years, it still but a small percentage to those who wish to seek their soul mate and come together in a ceremonial practice such as marriage.
Jam it back in, in the dark.

Reason: Took out the "un" in yielding since "not bending" to "not bend" is absurd.
