I think this was one of the forms of classical Roman marriage. |
|
| |
A marriage option would be the classic "If neither of us are married ten years down the road, let's get married." Generally not enforceable under contract law. |
|
| |
Anyway, how would the "divorce option" differ from an ordinary divorce with PNA? |
|
| |
At our public weddding reception, I promised a "five year guarantee or money back" ! This I could do, because my partner & I did 2 pre-marriage courses (2 different religions), plus I know that most marriages last 7 years or less, and we are both professional do-gooders (counsellors, social workers, etc). |
|

Renewable contracts, like residential leases, are good. |

Why buy a book when you can join a library? |
|
| |
Not any more, you don't. The Married Person's tax allowance was abolished last year. |
|
| |
I always liked libraries better anyway. Even when I own a book. Or two. |
|
| |
When we got married, I told my
wife that when she turned 36 I
reserved the right to trade her
in on two 18 year olds. (This
sounds cruel out of context,
but my wife appreciates my
sense of humor) |

A tradition among certain pagans is to vow to stay together "a year and a day". It's viewed as 1) a "trial" relationship, as well as 2) romantic because you have to re-commit after the first year. |

What happens if a partner opts out after 4 1/2 years? |
|
| |
At The MarriageLease(tm) we happen to agree. In fact, we believe that a marriage lease would work best if it was agreed to a period between 4-7 years with only one option to renew making the marriage valid 'till death do us part' and hopefully able to work through the challenges and avoid 'The Forever Factor'. |
