Another wave of disaster soon.
I don't view it in such a negative light. The reason these marriages break apart really has nothing to do with the pandemic. They were doomed from the start, the distance they were able to have before the pandemic was the only thing keeping them from being intimate enough to realize they don't work out together. This distance cannot prevent the inevitable, only delay it. The pandemic and its effects are merely a trigger, it was going to end sooner or later anyways.
The positive is that the pandemic caused them to finally spend enough time together to realize the other person wasn't right, it saved their time. Who knows how long they could have been married to the wrong person if they still had their escapes available.
This is not a disaster, it's a mass freeing. This result was inevitable, now it all just happens at the same time instead of being spread out over who knows how long.
