Better Married or Not Married?

This week we heard a shocking news, one of the Hollywood's most enduring couples, Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins decided to split up. Despite the 12 years age difference between them -Sarandon was older, there were no comment from them why they choose to separated after 23 years together.

The interesting fact is, even they already have 2 sons together, they were never married. "I won’t marry because I am too afraid of taking him for granted or him taking me for granted – maybe it will be a good excuse for a party when I am 80," Sarandon has said in the past.
