Hello! 20 year marriage teetering... (part VI)

[dingo]

That's a great quote and so true. I actually wrote it on the cover of my 'Situation Journal.' Thanks for sharing that.

I also think the line about our lives being on autopilot probably resonates with almost everyone here. I know I felt that way about myself (as well as my M). I remember a few years back thinking 'is this all there is?' - and being strangely content with that - even though I recognized I wasn't really happy.

Better to live through a few years of really tough times with a happy ending than a lifetime of complacency.
