: MOST marriages fail, period. The divorce rate in this country is now about sixty-five percent. It's not just celebrities that get married so quickly. You think in this day and age most people wait a year before getting married? That's why most of Vegas is one-minute marriage chapels.
Not MOST, jackass. Not even half. The divorce rates range from 43-50%. Do your research first, and get your head out of your ass, ass!
Celebrities DO get married on a much more quicker rate than non-celebs. How many teachers, police officers, grocery store workers, computer programmers, etc. get engaged & married only after a few months of dating?
And YES in this day & age, people do wait a year after engagement for marriage. You know the amount of planning one has to go through to arrange such an event? Oh, I forgot, you've never even had a girlfriend, so contact with the female world for you is virtually non-existent.
: Besides, why SHOULD they wait? If they think they want to get married, go for it. Granted, they should wait to have children, but what's it hurt to get married right away if your both down for it? Stop acting like a fifties-era school marm and pull that rigid stick out of your ass.
They SHOULD wait because marriage is a life-long commitment & SHOULD NOT be taken lightly, jackass! Love comes & goes. Just because it's there for a few months, it doesn't mean it's going to be there forever, jackass!
Stop acting like Ben's main place for man-pussy. He's already got a woman.
