Marry in Haste...

Getting married in haste results in the very real possibility of getting separated, reports an academic study.

Researchers tracked the relationships of 168 couples over 14 years.

How to Save Your Marriage
You can save your marriage - even when your partner insists on a divorce.

They found that those who had the shortest courtships were more likely to split up than those who had spent an extended period of time together before they married.

In the study, author Ted Huston, professor of human ecology at the University of Texas, concludes that 'the central task of courtship is for the two partners to make a sound choice, to be drawn into marriage for reasons that will prove out over the long haul.

"One of the risks of courtship is captured in Johnny Mercer's song Fools Rush In, wherein lovers put their hearts above their heads."

How Couples Deal With Divorce Can Be Understood From Verbal Clues
How you cope with your divorce is revealed by how you talk about it than what you say about it, says a new study.

Huston said the seeds of divorce could often be detected from the beginning of a relationship.

"The courtships and marriages that are successful are the "best friend" ones, the ones that are slow and steady and unfold over time," the Daily Mail quoted Huston as saying.

Marriage Education for a Life-Long Commitment
Marriage education is what the Marriage Resource Center of Wayne County offers to residents everyday.

"Positive feelings such as trust and respect emerge and the whole thing mirrors the evolution of any other kind of good relationship in life," Huston added.

Huston advises couples to 'enter marriage with eyes open to the strengths and weaknesses of one another and the relationship'.

Infidelity
The Internet and the mobile phone with their instant connectivity are fast fuelling the incidence of infidelity in the modern world.

The study has been published in the US journal Personal Relationships.
