Why are most couples so unprepared for marriage?

Asked by jehnstewart (358points) March 31st, 2012

Why do couples seem caught off guard after they get married? I figured taking time before marriage: dating, living together, learning not to take each other for granted, learning to solve conflict, working together as a team, mimicking marriage as much as possible gradually limits the “shock” after wedding day.

Listening to successfully married elders is helpful as well.
