People go into marriages for various reasons, but with common expectations-expectation of love, peace, happiness, and well-being. However, when these expectations are not met, cracks could easily develop, and when these cracks are not checked, they widen into chasms-chasms that eventually become filled up with vitriol that easily poison the marriage and those involved. It is often so easy to see divorce as the number one problem affecting marriages. Divorce is man's contrived solution to the perennial problems of marriage and is the symptom of the real problem. The consequences of unstable marriages are more devastating than we think. These are the questions we need to answer are the following: What is the goal of marriage? What price are we and the society paying for marriage, and is what we are getting in return worth the price? And what can we do to maximize the returns from marriage? We have read too many marriage cookbooks written by good husbands and good wives with happy and successful marriages. Now is the time to also hear from one of those who have tried so hard but failed. This is an honest journey of discovery, assessment, and analysis to find empirical solution to the problems of marriage using modern thinking, rational methods, and proven techniques that have worked so well in other fields of human endeavors.
