mate. Honest is the key. If oneperson is not totally and brutally honestwith the other, then the theory will notwork. Lie-detector tests, personality testand the like may be used during theprocess. If any one person finds outsomething about their mate that theysimply cannot live with, then the marriagecan be nullified without feelings of grudgeor blame.
