Dating: What's the point?
I do not think that dating is "practice for divorce." I think people date to discover themselves. As a relationship progresses, daters can learn what they want/expect in a good marriage. However, I think there is a big difference between casual hook ups and dating relationships. The word dating suggests some form of commitment and mutual interest. Hooking up is usually meaningless and does not last in the long run. The article by Christine Whelan suggests hooking up is an ambiguous term. Very few people surveyed believe hook ups lead to relationships. The majority of those surveyed believe they do not lead to anything and are just casual. I think people seek relationships for companionship or a deeper form of friendship.
