Yes, what IS with the increase in talk about "starter" marriages? The way some people talk about it, it's like it's just an assumption now that your first marriage will fail. I don't get it. Are people just trying to keep their expectations low so they can get out without a huge disappointment? I don't understand putting any less than 100% (or more!) into your marriage, I don't care what "number" it is... from before you even get engaged. If it doesn't work out, then that's something else. But this whole trend of "starter" marriages just doesn't sit right with me.
