So Confused and Conflicted (4)

I have a feeling your marriage is going to make it, Gordie.

Ummm...why do you feel that way?

It just sounds like you have it together, and what you are doing is working. You seem to be of the right mindset. You are positive and hopeful. Self-fulfilling prophecies work both in the negative and positive direction. Also, you have 5 kids, which probably help to keep a marriage together, though they add stress. People don't like breaking up their families. They will often try harder to stay together, for the kids.
