Maybe you only see it that way if you've experienced it. *shrugs*
I promise I'm not bitter. I hope I'm not coming across that way. I just have views on marriage that are different from the norm.And those views are a result of my marriage not my divorce. I tried to keep the rose colored glasses and fairytale view as long as I could, but reality was slapping me in the face. Now I know the realities of marriage and I'm cool on it. But I don't judge other people who want to do it the traditional way. As it is with everything else in life, I feel like people should do what works for them, you know. I would never say the traditional or some new variation of it is wrong- different maybe but never wrong.
ETA: My whole post wasn't directed at you DSTinguished. I was speaking generally. No one on GC has said that my views are wrong either, just speaking generally guys.
