Perhaps they stayed together "for the children." Not being sarcastic. In fact, the stats do indicate that the adult children of parents who stayed together--even when they might have preferred not to--are emotionally and otherwise better off than the children of those who sought greener (and younger and sexier) pastures. But living for others is evidently not your cup of tea. Which is why your marriage, like the marriages of so many people today who shack up to "test the merchandise," will probably not be what a marriage can be--and why your children will no doubt suffer for it.

This is unbelievable. How DARE you pass your own judgement on his marriage's future? Where do you get off acting like you know anything?? Last I checked, fortune-telling wasn't a Christian practice. You, sir, are absolutely disgusting. Would you stand in a neighbor's yard and shout at him that his relationship is doomed if he happens to live with a girlfriend or fiancee instead of a wife? I bet you would. I feel sorry for you, and your arrogance and inflated self-importance. Oh, and how exactly are people going to "live for others" capably without occassionally taking the time to think "Am *I* happy?". If everyone allows themselves to be miserable for someone else, guess what? Everyone's miserable!!! The person you're trying to make happy by neglecting yourself is neglecting theirself for someone else, and so on and so on! Ugh..

I suggest you stop with the personal attacks because I have issues with idiots, especially those who can't spell.
