The Seven-year Itch
Sunny: Did you hear the news? Nancy and Brian are Splitting up.
Igor: How long have they been married?
Sunny: Eight years. I’m sure it was the Seven-year itch. I bet Brian was Unfaithful to Nancy.
Igor: How do you know? Maybe it was Nancy who had a Wandering eye.
Sunny: Maybe, but It’s a shame. They were such a nice couple. Doesn’t anyone take Marriage vows seriously these days? To me, it’s a Lifelong commitment.
Igor: If you ask me, I think our Notion of marriage is Out of date. Conventional wisdom is that everybody wants to be unfaithful after they’ve been married a few years. Why not make marriage a Short-term arrangement? In my view, a marriage should last for seven years unless you want To renew. If you don’t, you each Go your separate ways.
Sunny: You make marriage sound like an apartment Contract! Not everybody is as Cynical as you are. I don’t think that most couples think seriously about committing adultery, and many couples stay together for life.
Igor: You may live in La-la land, but I live in the real world.
Sunny: If that’s the real world, I don’t want to live there!
