My H came home from camp at 12 years old, and found his mom had left his dad for OM, and actually left the country for a couple of years. His dad was distant with the kids, and had multiple affairs, even after marrying his present W. So, not many good examples for him. Although, he always said that he wanted to be different. Seems, our childhood environment has more influence than we realise.
My parents fought on occasion (my mom was 4ft 11ins tall, and was really feisty, but my dad did have a temper which I inherited, and had to work hard to overcome), but they remained married until my father's death (I was 16 at the time). My mother followed him 5 years later. Not sure what influence that had on me and my M, except that I did not want to put my kids through a D. Still, this is my second M, but my first was physically abusive, and I will not take that cr*p from anyone, so I left him 3 years after getting married.
Don't we all have fascinating stories!
