    I was reading more about the mills mccartney divorce on the train this morning. Phew, that's some payout she's going to get, I wonder was it worth all the grief. Interesting bit though, is they said divorce rates are dropping, is that right? Or is it just that we're getting married later in life or in fewer numbers? I don't like this idea that relationships seem to have a set time period then you brush yourself off and move on, should it be so easy?

    interesting you say this. I read somewhere that people are campaigning for 7 year marriages.. so when you get married, after 7 years you can both either walk away,,, or renew your 'contract'

    i think this is genius! Would save a lot of heartache and upset (not to mention money) and if half of marriages end in diivorce anyway - seems to make perfect sense.

     i feel for Macca - thats gotta hurt!

    apparently she would've settled for less money but no gagging order. They were only together for four years. I've been to a lot of weddings in the last two years and only one of them did I feel that it wasn't for the best of reasons. The others I truly feel they'll be together for ever, but how do you know really?

    I feel so terribly sorry for Paul McCartney - money does not usually heal emotional wounds - so really, how much money does 'what's her name' need?

    Would you walk away from your assets if it was a reminder of your time together? How many people get to make a clean break nowadays I wonder? Least of all when there's kids involved?

    Good opening remark wynter. What is it that bother you about relationships that have set times and then you just brush yourself off and move on? This seems to be the view that rocketman feels more comfortable with. Relationship break up is so hard - and so much happens that can leave us with big questions we ask about ourselves. Not sure you ever really brush off anyone that you have really loved - even when you move on and love someone else. It is a bit like cutting out part of you and saying that time did not really matter - rather than cherishing it and yourself for the time that it worked.
