It is a matter of a belief in God, God's Word. There are some who have put up with far, far worse then I have in their marriages.

Some spouses have left, do not continue to provide financially, do not visit their families, and are very hateful toward their LBS.

I feel I have been blessed as my H has done just the opposite.

Then there are others whose spouses have come and gone way more then mine has.
