Well, I for one thank you for speaking out, because I know you probably will get more crap from “the sisterhood” for it than men will, since they kind of expect it from us. Sounds like you are blessed with a good marriage (not a perfect one, since they don’t exist), and I hope the Lord continues to bless you and your husband.
I’m still looking for my “helpmate”, and sometimes I wonder if I’ll ever find one nowadays, but thoughtful and fair-minded women with their heads on straight, like you seem to be, do give me hope!
Well I pray that the Lord blesses you with a wonderful helpmate that you will love and cherish. I married when I was 19 and we have grown up together. Our 19th anniversary is next month. We agreed before marriage that we were in it for life and divorce would never be an option. Since divorce wasn’t an option there were days I considered killing him but he has proved more useful alive than dead. :) Lol!
