This isn't true. I know of and have been in relationships where it is extremely clear two people are deeply in love with one another and worship each other equally.
You all just seem terribly anti/social or shut ins
If you are the worshipee, you get to have this person fall all over themselves for you, build up you confidence, know that you don't have to worry about the other person leaving the relationship. It will bother you that you do not have real feelings for this person, and will probably think of that other person you used to date (and secretly still worship). You will eventually feel very smothered by the other person and leave them.

If it is true love then why does it end. True love never ends, it only gets stronger in time.

Sure, it's possible that there are very compatible people out there who get lucky. That's awesome, but I think it is more rare than people would like to believe. In some cultures, in which marriages are arranged, the couples often profess to love each other. They have lived together for decades as husband and wife, they grew to know each other, and the love came later. Maybe it is our culture that is a little off by teaching people to "fall in love". Falling in love is one part obsession, and two parts infatuation. It is during this period that people make the worst decisions of their lives. All reasoning goes out the window. I should know. I threw it there many times. I'm just saying, maybe we go about things wrong where this is concerned, or maybe just I did.

I see many compatible people and wonder how they found each other and how they knew the other was right for them. I guess it is an oddity or else I might not be so curious. 50% of marriages end in divorce so I think you are right when you say perhaps we go about it all wrong - teaching people to fall in love. It would be better to teach mutual respect. Respect for ones self first and then for a partner. Let them carry this consideration into a relationship. I often hear people say they had to make significant adjustments and changes to grow into their relationship. It takes work and first of all you have to want it to work and be willing to compromise. You are married though so you already know that I imagine...correct?

From what i have heard, many marriages fail because partners do not wait until after marriage to engage in sexual intercourse. I have only met 2 people who waited until marriage to engage in sexual intercourse. Those people have had a happy marriage for 53 years and they are still happy about it.
True it seems . Never get married as its a fast downhill run after the ceromony is over .

Marriage is the key to the beginning of the end.
