Ladies,

If you knew then what you know now how many of you would......




not have married the man you are married to?

3-4 years ago i would have said no, why go through all that.

now, after getting through, beyond and past all that i'd say, yes... its worth it

I agree with Icebear.

With God's love and grace I can finally say that I have let go of the selfishness and the nagging feeling that there could be something better. Actually, I prayed many times for an answer to my "unhappy relationship". What I didn't realize was that my prayer had been answered years ago when I met my husband. I do have the perfect man and he's been by my side for 8 years!


What an AWESOME GOD we serve!

Im at a cross roads to day.... last night as i cried myself to self... i would have to answer this NO WAY!

But the question is.... IF I KNEW THEN... what i know now. Still NO. But i had to go thru this to learn what i know now. My son i have was totally worth it! But crying myself to sleep is getting to frequent and im really sick of it.... i want to go home!

I have been married for 14 years. It has been a roller coaster of good times and bad, now im just motion sick and want to get off!

I've been married to my hubby for 9 years now. May as well stick it out. But with everything that I know now versus what i thought I knew then? Nope, no way in .... Foul mouth, inability to control spending, always trying to get our disabled son to pick on me then our son thinks its ok at other times. um, nope. Would not do it again.

:hug Lendingheart believe me, I know what you mean. The only thing i think that gets me through this besides God is the fact that hubby drives truck and thankfully I don't have to deal with him 24/7.

Whew!! I am glad I am not the only one. I was starting to think that maybe I crossed the line by admitting this on a forum.

beiing married to him... and reading about Jesus shows me what a man should and shouldnt be.... Jesus is my dream man.

Incase of divorce or death, my next man has to be 100% like Jesus... but since that man dont exist.... i will never have a another man.... NO WAY..... but i will gladly be at the marriage supper of the Lamb !!!!

I can say ditto to icebear here.

We had to go through some very dark times -- at one point I had to literally make a decision to stay in the marriage because I made a vow before God that I would, if for no other reason.

God is so faithful though. I would make the same decision in a heartbeat. God is molding both me and my husband and knitting us closer together.
