My grandmother's society upheld their marriage vows, and would never remarry if the spouse died. <BR/><BR/>The "Good Times" marriages where the man is a hard-working and family loving brother. He remained without question. <BR/><BR/>Today, divorce is too easy for both husband and wife. Key is open communication, even if it means disagreeing. I think more marriages would survive the cancer called divorce if they only 'talk it out'. <BR/><BR/>My parents have been divorced and remarried, then separated-move back in, its so mixed up. I try not to use them as a model. <BR/><BR/>I believe my marriage is loving and will last.....until Morris Chestnut shows up.....on the real, if two people really want something to work then it will. I have been married seventeen yrs,we are in love each other. Have a teenage children, and we are looking down the road to retirement.<BR/>Sometimes I want out, but then reality sets in: kids, finance, relationship...meeting someone new..AIDS or someother weird STD. <BR/><BR/>"..till death do us part"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
