Falling in love is easy... staying in love is the hard part! A third of New Zealand marriages end in divorce, it turns out that the happily ever after isn’t quite like the fairy tales that we all know and love.
The reality is a marriage isn’t a piece of cake; it takes time, effort and a lot of hard work to make it work. Marriage isn’t as simple as it sounds; falling in love is fun, easy, and exciting yet staying in love can be tedious, worrying, and tiring.
