A conservative German politician on Wednesday proposed making marriage contracts expire after seven years, with the option to renew for those not feeling the proverbial itch.
"I propose that marriages lapse after seven years," Gabriele Pauli told reporters in Munich, the capital of the largely Catholic southern state of Bavaria.
"This would mean that one will only commit for a fixed period and will actively have to renew your vows if you still want to continue."
Pauli, 50, has been divorced twice.
That sounds about right. I think that I was more then ready to call it off after seven years into my last marriage, or perhaps earlier.
See if you wanted to go on you just signed up for another seven, but if you didn't you could walk away, no harm no foul.
even better - a Trade In option, like a really good contract on a nice car ....right...okay maybe a little rude of the enigma..
