"The world has grown suspicious of anything that looks like a happily married life."

Oscar Wilde was an interesting character. He dedicated much of his creative life to the writing of human relationships, and as such, probably was a natural born cynic. It also didn't help that at the time, his penchant for men made him a somewhat wealthy, but social pariah. It doesn't surprise me then that he most eloquently put this quote together, which many today prescribe to- there's no such thing as happy union, more often in marriage, its a state of mutual indifference more than anything.

Well, Wilde, as much as I like the Importance of Being Earnest, I'm going to have to go to the mat with you on this one. Because as naive as it may seem, I do believe in a happy marriage, and I do not suspect that the appearance of one thing means another. In other words, I call bullshit.
