“The younger you marry, the greater the likelihood of change, which will render you incompatible. I find, for instance, when I teach the class on marital compatibility, some years ago, if there is an 18-year-old who’d never dated, she would be so naïve they couldn’t even benefit from it because they hadn’t experienced enough life to know that. In that sense, that’s why teen marriages have a very high non-success rate, because there is no identity. But here’s the deal… In the in-love phase, you’re intensely emotionally engaged. But in love, according to research, it lasts, on average, about two years. So what happens is you go a year and a half, you start dating someone, you fall in love with them. You go a year and a half; you get married. You got six months to go. What are you going to do for the next 59 and a half years? How are you going to keep that flame alive? How are you going to keep that relationship vibrant?’” – Dr. Darren George
