So, this morning, as I do every morning, I was reading MSN. And there was this article entitled, "7 Ways to Know if Your Spouse is Cheating." Well... it was something along those lines.
Do you now how absurd that is? It is like people get married today expecting their spouse to cheat... and that we should be prepared enough to be looking for those signs. WHAT!?!! Can't we assume that you know the person you are marrying well enough and trust them that much that they aren't cheating on you.
It is kind of like how a couple of years ago know I went to my cousin's wedding where the priest basically implied that they were going to get divorced.
Is that what everyone thinks is going to happen?
What about commitment. This is why I go back to my belief that people just don't understand what true love is. They think it is all about the love in fairy tales... that once you get married all problems stop and you live happily ever after. Let me go ahead and say... that isn't true. And I don't have to be married to know that. Love is a commitment above all else. That is my feelings. You have to not only love the person you are marrying but you have to LIKE them (I mean the person they are... you won't be able to change them). But also you have to be committed enough to LOVE them even when you may not like their actions. Because at some point you may not get along... you may fight... you may want to even leave. But you shouldn't. In my mind marriage is forever... not until there is someone else. There shouldn't be someone else who captures you. It is a commitment to love that one person for life.
So, those are my random thoughts after seeing that stupid article.
