Dom,

I am not talking about the amount of time, I am talking about the fact that she has said she did not love him before she married him. Therefore she must have been lying when she made the vows.

The ideal which christianity gives us is that we should not just give up on an R because it is going through a rocky period. That is the gold standard and one which we should certainly hold to in most situations. I just don't happen to believe this is one of those situations, not from what Jimmy has told us. Why do you think anullment exists - it is to protect people who made a genuine mistake and married someone who just wasn't suitable to be married.

BTW, I was raised Catholic and still do adhere to many of the values I was raised with, I do not think it is right for examle to bin someone because they turn out to have a major health problem that was not apparent before you married - even if it is within a few months.

Jimmy's W lied in order to get married. Maybe we'll never know why she did that but the fact is she knew she did not feel love and yet she stood there in church and took those vows.
