Here are marital sci fi ideas that seem like they might come true. I’m choosing things that we already have marital “prototypes” for today, albeit in some cases on the edgy frontiers of that strange world known as Planet Relationship.

Warning, the four minutes you will spend reading this blog post may be hazardous to your marriage. Or so you might think. New research out of the Netherlands examines the relationship between marriage quality and Internet usage finding that the more frequently an individual uses the Internet the happier they are in their marriage. This news comes with one caveat, however, that independent of frequency of use people who are compulsive Internet users are less happy with their spouse.

Differences in the husband’s and wife’s perceptions aren’t always about the partners being oblivious, in denial, deceitful, treacherous, or naïve. Sometimes, the spouses are just living with two different meanings of the same word and the same life.

I actually differ from this article's view that marriage is not harmed by online interaction. Unfortunately, they have statistics to back them up, and all that I have is life experiences and a keen observation with no percentages and pie charts. I felt that to be fair that I should include an article that has a slight differerence of opinion. When you ask yourself what do you think, see if you go with your gut or the numbers.

"Till death do us part” is a compelling idea, but with the divorce rate exceeding 50 percent, many people would very likely agree that humans have a biological impulse to be nonmonogamous. One popular theory suggests that the brain is wired to seek out as many partners as possible, a behavior observed in nature. Chimpanzees, for instance, live in promiscuous social groups where males copulate with many females, and vice versa.
