I am so sorry to have touched a nerve with you. That was never my intent. I have nothing but respect for the things you stand for. I also know that you stood through a lot of horrible stuff in your M. This to me, shows how serious you take your vows, and your love for your spouse. Something I aspire to! You have been kind enough to challenge me and help me get to where I am today… which is a pretty good place. For this I am very grateful.
My issue with the M vows is that they are absolute. Literally, we are vowing to stand by our spouse through everything… forever, when obviously sometimes there is no way we could. Am I the only one who struggles with this?
One of the reasons I like this board is because of the hope people here have for saving their M. Michele teaches us to leave no stone unturned, have no regrets, etc. I like that. A lot. People on other boards advised me to bail on my W long ago, but not people here.
I am here to help others have the hope I have.

M: A really long time. Crisis: 5 years. She's still worth it.
