If, "Something greater," means "oil," then that matches up with my service.

Happiness is always waaaaaay down the list of things people need by the folks that try to define what the purpose of something is

Edit: oh and marriage is just an atavism from what used to be a property arrangement, monogamy and commitment aren’t confined to the institution

marriage is an institution to protect kids, to make sure they get the best possible upbringing. people who think it's all about their own personal happiness are just nacissists

No marriage is better than a bad marriage.

When the parents' relationship is happy, healthy, and supportive it's fantastic for the kids. My parents' relationship is like that. They've had their bumps and issues, but for the most part they are great together. It was a great environment to grow up in.

But if the parents are unhappy or have a toxic relationship it is so damaging to both the parents and the kids. In a situation like that everyone involved, including the kids, is better off with divorce. My sister was in a bad marriage. It was so damaging to her kids. The divorce process was messy and hurtful, but once the dust settled the kids thrived much better than they did when their parents were still married. Never stay in a marriage for the kids.

best possible upbringing

Do you mean abuse and indoctrination in the name of "saving my soul" and instilling "traditional values" in me by parents who hate each other but stuck together "for my sake" (while subconsciously taking it out on me)? Because that's what I got. Thanks, much appreciated...

The abuse taught me why religion needs to be destroyed, as well as to never trust the ones who are supposed to love me. It taught me to fight for myself, and never trust, never assume, never give in. It taught me to give up any hope in humanity or god, and accept will as the only force that matters.

It also gave me severe anxiety, depression, a suicide attempt, and taught me how to hate myself. So thanks for the trauma.

But "marriage must never be broken. It's sacred, for the good of the kids..."
