The mere idea that you are not in a place for the rest of your life gives you an awfully unstable feeling. That's why trial marriages would never work. You've got to feel you're in a thing irrevocably and forever in order to buckle down and really put your whole mind into making it a success. Jean Webster
About This Quote

If you're in a trial marriage and thinking about getting out, don't. If you're in a trial marriage and thinking about getting out, don't. Seriously. Don't.

You can't just walk away from a trial marriage and expect it to all work out just fine. Most of the time it doesn't.
