just curious

[Eye of the Tiger]

I am just wondering how important our marriages are to us.How much a person would put into saving their marriage.I see people out there spending thousands of dollars on counseling and couples workshops.Is there a limit to the amount of money we would spend to save our marriages?What I mean is if you had to spend a crazy amount of money say 10,000,or 20,000 dollars to try to save a marriage with no guarantee in the end.Would you?Curious to see the reponses to this.

im wondering the same thing myself. my marriage and my family are very important to me but im not going to kill myself to try to save this thing if my WAW wont help out. I think it comes down to your individual situation, and your level of patience.

as for money..i can tell you that i have a nice house..i would give it all up in a second to be in a happy relationship with a woman who really loved me

Hey Tiger, I would spend every penny I made, travel to the ends of the earth, do whatever it takes because he is the other half of my soul.

My choice, my decision.

[ShockedOne]

I would spend what I can, as long as I feel there is hope. If my hope fades, I don't know that I will spend another dime.

Like Wifey, my choice, my decision. But if hope fades, what's the reason?

[Doingitright]

I would spend whatever I took. It would be a no limit thing if I had no limit. If not for the kids then for my own selfish reasons becuase I loved my W dearly.

wow.interestng feedback.62906 spending money to save your marriage is definitely not a selfish reason.Spending someone elses money maybe but not if it was your money.

That is exactly how I feel so I second this response...Excellent choice of words Wifey

Ditto.

I would move heaven and earth.
Can't seem to move my wife, though.

I should've put a twist in my post.I see most people would give anything they could to save their marriage.But would we give that if we weren't sure how things would turn out?Sort of lke betting on the craps table.

Agreed - I would give it all.

In a way, I am. I am moving 200 miles to be closer to him (he wants this) which means a new job, leaving family, moving costs and hassle, new apartment, etc. I am also trying to find a way to scrounge up enough $$$ for a three-pak of DB coaching sessions.

And no, I *don't* have a guarantee of how it will turn out.
