Being in love isn't all that its cracked up to be, you behave stupidly, make silly decisions, and basically stop being a rational thinking person, what in the name of god is soo great about behaving like a complete idiot to make a few babies? Which is when you get right down to it, is what all that ridiculous billing and cooing is about. The by product of that is that to ensure the proper care of the off spring daddy sticks around for longer than it took to get his fly unzipped, and thus a bond starts to form between man and woman, and then another baby is born so he sticks around some more. Then a house is purchased, cars, vacations, and before you know it he is so tied in, he can't leave. Plus with the divorce laws in Ireland, the woman would get half anyway, so he stays around being miserable, and then enter escorts.
I know, I am cynical!
