However, I think society works better, all things considered, when you make a promise. And you stick to it. One of the things I learned from reading Jung was that there are things in a marriage that you can't have unless you're all in. I believe that.

If there's a back door open, to begin with, or a back door opens, then I think there's something about the relationship that's lacking at least. I think you pay a huge price for that.
