是啊，现在的婚姻真的很脆弱。好多人都过分强调个人感情，追求一时的新鲜和刺激。什么网恋、婚外情、一夜情、还有闪婚，社会上的诱惑实在太多了，好多人都抵挡不住。所以现在中国人的感情出轨机率高得惊人。我有一个朋友结婚才一年就有了婚外情，接着就是夫妻俩闹离婚。

Yeah, marriages today are really fragile. A lot of people care too much about personal emotion, so they go looking for something fresh and stimulating for a short time. So now China has a surprisingly high level of failed relationships. I have a friend who had an affair after just a year of marriage. Then he and his wife had a big fight, and got divorced.
