I just wanted to say that I think, as commenters on the linked site point out, that there are a lot of factors this study doesn’t take into account, such as how long people live together before marrying and whether or not children are involved. My fiance and I will have lived together 8 years by the time we get married, and I seriously doubt our daily living rituals will change after we get married!
