I agree, it was sad. I hope it never has to be part of her reality when she gets married. My mom has been married 4 times. One of my life goals was to get married and stay married. But, I failed at it. I hope for better for my kids, though.
You didn't fail at it and it may not be over. Things could still turn around. IMO and I may get bashed for this, but IMO the one that chooses to leave instead of staying and trying to work on the M is the one that failed. The LBS if at least tried to make it work, did not fail.
