What Romance And Marriage Will Look Like In 100 Years To Come? by Sherifastro(m): 7:36am On Sep 16, 2017
Flash back 100 years - 1917

° Some marriages were still arranged
° Dating was done in groups
° Receiving gifts was very much a part of the romance
° Virginity was more common until the wedding night
° Many women married in their teens, not finishing school
° Women over 25 years old were considered spinsters
° It was romantic to cook a lovely meal with a candle lit table setting (in some countries)
° Kink was considered something very private, as well as the act of sex
° Sex was often times considered only for procreation
° Marriages lasted many years - divorce not being considered, even in the worse circumstances due to its stigma.

Looking at today - 2017


° Many couples meet via social media or internet dating sites
° Dating is rarely chaperoned
° Gifts are typically only given for special occasions
° Virginity is a rarity - many couples have sex by the third date, if not sooner
° Many women opt for high school and college graduation prior to considering marriage
° Many women wait until their 30's and 40's to marry the first time - waiting until their careers are established or hoping to find the right one later on when they're more mature - avoiding divorce
° A romantic dinner out is preferred to avoid cleanup
° Kink is freely talked about in order to find a more suitable mate
° Sex is considered a must not an option - even without the need to procreate, thanks to advances in birth control
° It's typical to find a mate who has been married multiple times due to divorce being a ready option for difficult relationships


Flash Forward 100 years - 2117


° Couple paring will be arranged for more equality in intellect
° Dating will be obsolete
° Gifts will be unnecessary
° Virginity will be in demand as to keep couple paring limited
° Advanced education for both parties will be the norm
° All will be pared by age 30
° Kink will again be private and underground
° Sex will be demanded for only procreation, all other options for sex will be private and underground
° Divorce will be obsolete

Of course, all this is my own personal option. What do you think romance and marriage will be like in 100 years? I'd love to hear your ideas.

What do you think the future holds? Will it look like the romance of today? The romance of the past? or something crazy? cheesy

Secretly wishing for this to be but we know the truth....

There would be nothing like marriage.

Baby mama's and baby father's everywhere.

One thing you cannot take away from humanity is emotions.

The more we think we are advanced, the more the yawning of our heart.......

The only way future relationship, and pairing can look like what you said is If you can succeed to tear the hearts of humans. Otherwise, forget it.

Some ladies form too-big-to-fall-in-love, they mingle with all the high and low, getting all the favours and connection, but they end up lonely and in regrets.

You can cheat your mind, but not the heart. If it beats, then it feels.

I dont subscribe to your thought, I strongly believe love would be deeper.

I believe a time would come that the world would have enough of all the distractions.

Slay queens would learn lessons and fall in line. Career women would understand that reaching the peak of their career is nothing but loneliness. Sugar-tongued and players men would have so many baby mamas that their lives would be confused and their resources splitted in a million ways and they would want a home.

This is what I believe.

Purely my opinion.

I think by the time the world will struck another century, with all these advanced technologies sha...Ppol are more emotionless that even sex will be done by microchips installed in every human's brain..
Marriage will be done thru internet sha..couples will not necesserarily gonna meet to prepare the wedding..

Cloning will be rampant as giving birth will not be acceptable..

Food will be in form of capsules and water will be purified a hundred times due to pollution...

This is why i always say sex shouldn't be done in a relationship. Sex clouds your sense of reasoning. You hardly make the right decision about the person when you've had sex with them.
What i just stated is the MAJOR reason of divorces and marriage failures in this century.

In the future ,tech would ve taken over portion of people emotion in which sex would be consider obsolete and unattractive..
Marriage will be online arranged and online conducted using conference meeting ,greeting app...
Government will encourage child control policy to control overpopulation...
Sex will be discuss and be part of school curriculum,..
Divorce will be be done at free will..
Government policy might be employed to checkmate the indecent dressing among ladies due to rising raping cases that has not been recorded in history...
These are my thought's

I guess all those things you typed there are what you wish would happen in 100 years' time.

Dude wake up and use your brain! The opposite is what will happen and even the animals in the bush know that!
