We've been sold a myth about modern relationships. That marriage doesn't matter. That if love is strong enough, everything else will fall into place. It's not true.
In Reliable Love, Dr Harry Benson draws on psychological theories of commitment, his PhD research tracking more than 3,000 couples over their first 14 years of parenthood, and real-life stories to show that marriage remains our strongest foundation for lasting love.
His findings reveal something striking: previous research has seriously underestimated the impact of marriage. Even the poorest couples who marry are more likely to stay together than the richest couples who don't. Marriage is not just a marker of stable couples. It helps create stability by strengthening commitment, reducing ambiguity, and changing behavior.
For couples, parents, policymakers, and anyone searching for reliable love, this book offers a bold, evidence-based message. Marriage isn't outdated. It's misunderstood. If you want reliable love, stop waiting for proof. Get married.
Dr Harry Benson is Research Director of Marriage Foundation and completed his PhD on the psychology of marriage and commitment at the University of Bristol.
