SP, the beautiful thing about this is very rarely is one action or one moment a marriage destroyer...
Indeed, in the same way that one action or moment isn't a marriage saver.

The worst for you might be the anticipation of what is about to happen... rather than dealing with the consequences of choices after the fact...
I've thought about that as well and I try to limit my expectations to nothing or just above nothing. Certain things would be nice, certain things would be not so nice, but I don't expect one over the other.

That's pretty much what my intent is, summed up very nicely here. I appreciate the words, thank you. As far as the song goes, I'm a musician, and when my wife first saw me, I was singing. I proposed with a song, I sang at our wedding, I've written songs for other people's weddings, I play music fairly constantly around the house... It's a big part of who I am.
Truly, it is the best way I know how to express myself. I don't expect glowing reviews, hugs and/or kisses, or anything of that nature. I've written one other song that I've sang for her in the process, and she said she like it and it was one of my best. That's about the extent of what I expect, though I know she hears the message as well. And the message is... thank you.
