Starting FFXIV, to me, was supposed to be a new experience to make new friends in. Sadly it's hard to do outside of a linkshell because there's no real reason to party up in order to level, except I do in Behest a lot. And in Behest it seems people are so concerned with just getting it over with that it's hard to make friends there ... /sigh so I honestly can't see marriages being too big until they force us players to become more friendly. That's a change to the game I'm highly anticipating!
