Very interesting article. I think those of us in our 20s and 30s, married, engaged or single, can relate in some way to this post (whether you're thinking of someone else or yourself as you read this!)
"Sociologists say that for successful women, there's another factor
pushing them to prematurely plan their weddings: Because women of the
Echo Boomer and Y generation don't need to marry for financial security,
they've hyper-romanticized the institution. It's essentially become a
nonprofit venture, aimed at a greater, far more elusive good: happiness.
In fact, 51 percent of college-educated women believe married people
are happier than singles. Women without college degrees are less likely
to buy into that sentiment."
