At 40 I am going to be different then who I am today but I believe I am mature enough to share that with a life partner whereas at a younger age I would have been to self absorbed.
I truly envy those that find their life partner at a young age and choose to go through life's stages together; growing and changing. The fact that they have been able to evolve together in a loving and supportive manner is something to be admired.

You're a hopeless romantic....
There's also the "finding a life partner, go through life's stages and find out that you handle them so differently as you're growing and changing that any evolution together would be virtually impossible, rendering any love and support nil."
Marriage licenses should be like every other license-renewable by choice.
