I thought it was about superior social skills coupled with romantic passion.

How do you measure success in a marriage? I know people who don't speak for several years.

Hayle, I know a couple married 40+ years who attended a marriage enrichment course...

No, it isn't just about sacrifice and working things out. It's about surrendering and giving it up to God...

Its not? Then why do we decide to get married based on a romantic attachment?

If we do get married for that reason but can't sustain the romance, then we should leave right?

So what are you calling "romantic"? The Kissy-Kissy, mushy-mushy stuff?

Or a deep soul-connection the gurus talk about all the time at Belief.net?

I think it is about mutual respect for someone deeper than that one has ever felt before.

If I left my husband for whatever reason, it would be a lame reason no matter what I thought was the "touchy-feely reason on the day" like this chit is ala carte with Carte Blanche. I would be physically ill and unable to control simultaneous vomiting along with bowel movements. That is how sick I would be...

If my husband left me, that bimbo had better have a "magic Disney World Universal Studios All Access Florida Amusement Parks coochie"... She'd better have Sith Lord Manipulations up her stuh...

'Cuz what I am giving him... He'd be stoopid to leave... Some of my "former business partners" would be pissed...
