No matter how much of an individual these days, everyone basically follows patterns. This is also true for life and relationships. Freedom usually means that he is not looking for traditional, old forms, but something new, and while he is just as conformist as his ancestors were in the past, he thinks of himself, now he has chosen a completely unique path.
For thousands of years, the norms of choosing a partner and living together have been replaced by an alternative formula, where the relationship can be dissolved, and instead of the two parties becoming one, the two parties can exist separately as individuals. Of course, this model squeaks a lot; so many unhappy, derailed lives, and love-deprived celebs fleeing to drugs, often unwittingly testify against the salutary nature of this. In many places, in the absence of the non-existent normal family model, the "authority" of social networks and other media celebrities, legitimized by their notoriety, shows the direction.
Despite the fact that they want to spectacularly kick up morals and customs that are considered to be corrupt, the issue of loyalty is still considered fundamental.
Just the other day, we learned (those who use the Internet stumble upon it unsolicited, of course you don't have to click on it) that one of the most popular celebrities, the Anglo-American (according to Wikipedia, Irish, German, Polish, Jewish) Emily Ratajkowski is becoming. Of course, there is nothing surprising in this, it also happens with our domestic, slightly more provincial celebrities, we learn about them in the same way when they get married, have children, divorce, remarry, etc. The reason why the matter crossed my stimulus threshold is the reason: Emily was cheated on by her husband, the father of their one and a half year old child.
The lady makes a living, she is famous and rich because she is very beautiful, and she publishes this in various forms. And the average person who consumes news is amazed: who is the man who cheats Ratajkowski? And who is the woman he is cheating on? Doesn't beauty and fame mean protection? Allegedly, Audrey Hepburn, one of the most beautiful actresses, was also cheated on by her husband. Marilyn Monroe, who had all of America at her feet, was unhappy in love.
Many people believe that the great achievement of the twentieth century is that marriages are not decided by parents or economic interests, but ultimately by love. However, I am not sure that this would not have been the case a long time ago. Of course, they didn't leave certain socio-ethnic-religious groups - even today it doesn't lead to good things if the members of the couple have a big difference in education, culture, civilization - but they must have chosen out of love in their environment. Many of our folk songs, folk tales and dances refer to this. (Songs lamenting a lost lover indicate that there would be a chance for a love marriage, but for some external reason it could not happen. E.g. "You broke your hand when you hugged me.")
