Hey, buddies. Have you ever thought of renewing a marriage, let's say every five or ten years? should marriage be everlasting all the time?
If a marriage must be re-signed every few years, one advantage is that the couples can think seriously about whether or not they should spend another few years together. if they decide to be together, this may make them value their marriage more.

If people had to renew their marriage every five or ten years they would not take it as seriously. Being for lifetime is a higher value and people need to just realize that marriage means together for life. The divorce rates in the US (I do live in the US) are insane. I can't say I would never get a divorce but I would certainly hope I do not.

I can not see the point of people renewing their marriage vows as it do not improve the marriage one bit.I thing if you say i do to the person the once that should be enough.If you renew your marriage as you are having problems then renewing the marriage will not mend the marriage and lets face it you would be better off using the money for something better.

This is an interesting discussion since marriage is the happiest day in most peoples lives,and me and my wife have been married almost three weeks,and it was the happiest day of our lives,and we are going to stay married forever,and I know most people have vow renewals and I am not sure if you should have to renew marriage but if you did,then every few years you could have another wedding and basically marry the one you love all over again to help signify that you will always be together,and always love each other until the end of time,have a great day,good luck with your life,and all of your mylotting goals ,and Happy Posting.
