I don't think Angela would tell you that you NEED to change. You can continue to dislike marriage in its current form if you want to. Angela's point is that many people, like herself, are fine with it as it is for now.

Certainly you would agree that a divorce rate at 50% is too high.

My personal opinion about why the divorce rate is so high is that people who shouldn't get married are getting married. It's not a problem with marriage itself, it's a problem with the people choosing to get married.
A lot of people have so little control over their own life and when they choose to go into a marriage with someone else, not only are they still putting up with their own crap, but now they're dealing with someone else who is highly integrated into their life as well.
If you're an unhappy person, you will probably create an unhappy marriage. In my opinion, unhappy people should not get married. You need to be happy and content with yourself before you enter into a marriage.
