The Course of Love,

L.H. Draken
The period, starting from about 1750 and on, when the idea of love as the primary impetuous for marriage took root.
When poetry and novels and philosophy started to see love as this idealized world, where two perfect people came together to make one more perfect thing, in a perfect world lit by sunsets. Where no one has jobs and everyone has help to manage the home and children.
We're largely still in this period of 'soul mates', but I think as people become more critical and realistic about how to live a happy life, it's changing.
