Finite resources also decreases valuing something, because there's a relationship between how much something is valued and how long it lasts. People value marriage, not because it's finite, but because it's promised as an eternal state of being.
My wedding vows are until death. Therefore, marriage is not eternal. Your argument is invalid.

Fair enough. But, people value marriage, because it lasts until death, not because it's expected to only be for a few years. At least I think that's usually the case.

I mean that people value marriage more than other kinds of relationships, because it's expected to last until death. Also, the stats I'm seeing are that less than 50% of marriages end in divorce. https://www.wf-lawyers.com/divorce-stat … and-facts/

No, that's not an accurate summary of what I said.
