One of the most amazing couples I ever met, was a man and his wife who was blind. They met in college, and i was a student at the time volunteering with the disabled community. They taught me a lot, i never heard anybody complain about their situation and they were so supportive of each other.
Marioara Popescu 8 years ago
Why would they complain? Having a disability is not making anyone feel any less of a person, it is just the outsiders who think they are less. You don't complain about not being able to fly either. Cause you are perfectly fine without that. So are they.

Downvote away if you want, but divorce isn't nearly as common among people 50+ years of age. A lot of the older generations stay married, they put hard work into their relationships. My parents have been married 40 years, and there's been ups and downs. Young couples are so quick to give up and throw in the towel when things get hard. Its quite sad. Won't be surprised how few couples there are that are married now, that stay married until old age.
Wendy 8 years ago
I'll be honest and say I find your tone rather patronizing and rose-colored. Many women did not have the option to opt out of marriage. If they were pregnant (and it's amazing how many "premature" babies were born then), they had less of a choice. It's hard enough in this day, I can't imagine how it was then when the world looked upon you as a harlot. Ultimately, who is to say that marriage should be the end goal for anyone, really, much less one that lasts for decades? Studies incidate most women born in the 40's would not have married (that young or that person) had they really had a choice. Many would have loved to study, work or travel. In fact, Since 1990, the divorce rate for Americans over 50+ has doubled. The majority of these divorces are to first marriages (the very ones described as being ideal). Divorce is no worse than being married out of habit, obligation or fear. Don't get me wrong, these pictures are wonderful, but they are outliers. That is what makes them special.
