Saying it as she did, she needs a man who is strong enough to be her man and let her stand on her own two an without the pressure of marriage.

I applaud her for that.

Too many times you see people who are still married and miserable but stay just to go through the motions of trying to do as society has them do as a married couple but at least she is honest about how she feels about the institution.

Well IDK about Dee's situation with the two housed marriage? Whatever her answer is, I wish her the best!

Yeah, there are people who go through the motions. But those of us who are married, like me, meant what we vowed to do--even in a court of law. Not saying anything what Dee's situation currently is, just saying, all of us do have to go into the marriage KNOWING key things about ourselves and putting them on the table...

Her's was her independence and space... I think a woman who can hold her own like that, is like wow!!!

My issue was my insecurity and fear of losing my husband... They say that 3 days doesn't change a person... Well, after being trained with hospice care--3 days lasts a lifetime... When questioned about my own death, the last "thing" I was "willing" to give up... It was my husband... But for my own selfish reasons. So many times I was willing to give up all kinds of things, especially my life--when I saw the reality of it, in the tiny exercise in hospice care training, just for being a volunteer!!! I am not afraid of my losses--I am more afraid of loved one's loss of me!!!

IDK how I made that connection with my husband? But I must say I love him holistically... And I hope everyone has what I have and if I lose that, I am glad I had that experience and if alive, I will move forward... That's when I speak to Dee and ask, help me?
