Petri, you're also right about marriage as an institution. I'd be so happy to date my husband or fix our relationship in any way possible even if we have to get divorced. It's unbearable to simply lose the most important person in my life, second to my daughter, and think that it can never be fixed. I'd do anything now to stay married after thinking further, but assuming my husband still wants a divorce, I wish to know how I can seek his forgiveness and possibly hope he'll seek mine as well.
