Hi Gottmans! Thank you John, for visiting Vroman's in Pasadena the other night. It was great to meet you and get a copy of the newest book.

​

Obviously you two are experts about marriage, what to do after "I do" has already been said. I'm wondering if you two have any thoughts on the justification of the institution of marriage on the macro level. With studies and anecdotal evidence pointing in both directions (some say married people are happier than singles, but divorce rates are also high), it's hard to know whether marriage is actually what's best for us as a species. Any thoughts?

Very cool. I've got some reading to do. Thank you for the answer and all the wonderful work you've done and continue to do. Best wishes!
