In triangle.general, Thomas Gauldin <scoundrl@mindspring.com> uttered forth:

: I suspect strongly that if a study was done on divorce, that it would
: show a correlation between the length of time a couple knew each other
: prior to marriage and marital success.  The longer "courtship" period
: gives both people time to recognize the plusses and minuses of the
: other, their beliefs and how they react to different situations.

I don't know about other religions, but in Wicca, a couple is supposed to 
live together for a year and a day before getting married. Always thought 
that that was a good idea -- make sure you can live with a person before 
you marry them.
