I disagree. Marriage is not about expectations. It’s about commitment.

Marriage is a decision. Love is a decision. A husband and wife need to work at it every day.

Prayers for all married couples.

You are so very correct. It is a decision. I also learned to trust that my husband would make decisions that were good for us as a couple and then as a family.

He wisely persuades me when we come to an impass. He has laid the law down exactly 6 times in 32 years. I insisted on my way one of those times. And don’t you know it? He was right! LOL

I am a very lucky woman. I never question his judgement. after all, he picked me, right?

Yes, it is a daily decision...today (September 14th) is my 11th wedding anniversary. I found my soulmate, but we work at it...too many people CHOOSE the easy way out sometimes which is to leave. I love my husband more today than 11 years ago today. Our commitment to our marriage makes our love stronger. I wish people would understand that.

It was a tongue in cheek post.
