Some good points, certainly. But "too many lbs cling to their marriage hoping their old spouse would return and that never happens" is a bit of a stretch, no? I realize there is change, but complete change, as in core values and beliefs? I think ive read countless stories of people who really went off the reservation who realized the way they were living contradicted their cv and beliefs. Im not saying that they will not adjust their belief system to get their fix while they are in the fog....but i would think that eventually will wear off, no?
Its neither here or there because thats out of my control. I need to work on me and start commanding the respect i deserve. I thank you for your input and appreciate your time
