No one should ever have to live with any type of abuse, especially with someone else putting their hands on them in other then a loving and unwelcome manner! This is one of the only two reasons for walking or even running away! Glad you are safe now.

Sorry I'm not really good with computers...I'll try it like this
"when you have made this commitment to each other before God and family and you have spoken these vows 'for better or for worse' you try to stick to it.." Being Christian I took my vows very seriously. I made a commitment before God and to a women I loved very much. I stood by my words to stay committed through the good, bad and ugly. There was nothing in heaven or earth that would make me walk away, turn my back, or abandon my family. Albeit I am not the best man in the world, but I try to be the best man I can be. Not always perfect, not always right. But then I use those same standards and apply them to my relationship, you (she) doesn't have to be perfect, not always right. A decision in a marriage (in my opinion) is made by "us" no matter who made it. What happens in a marriage stays in a marriage! We will deal with bad choices and get through it because we are a team, you and me...we became one flesh, united before God Himself. To quote the Bible A house divided cannot stand. The problem is not everyone takes these vows to heart, that they are a lifetime commitment. I don't think I could ever go throughout hat again, love that deep, allow someone so far into my life, my mind, and my heart. I don't have it me to give that much anymore, I don't want start over approaching 60 years old. |

I know people who have stayed married simply for the children even though they were not happy at all and it showed, one of my cousins did this. I think in this case its better to split and be good friends because in this case your kids will see you happy as oppose to the opposite just for the sake of staying together. but again I've never been married and I haven't had children, I may think differently if that actually happened to me. saying that I heard a story recently where someone stayed and he wasn't happy (for very good reasons) just for the sake the kids and I admire him for this. but this is a different to most cases. when you have made this commitment to each other before God and family and you have spoken these vows 'for better or for worse' you try to stick to it.. after those babies come along and ya rock em to sleep wave at them as they go into school cheer at their ballgames.. you will try even harder to make it work even when it is not perfect because it's not just about you and your own happiness it becomes about them there are many couples out there still married and one or both are less than happy but yet they stay together |

We all make decisions and choices we believe are correct, with our best interest in mind at the time. Mistakes are made, some can be lived with, others can't. It really depends on the people involved, how much they can handle, tolerate, and forgive. Personally I steer away from people who self praise and tell me how good, honest, and sincere they are. Especially the ones who say things like "I'll stick by you through anything, thick or thin", I'm in for the long haul" I learned over the years everyone has limits and makes choices. To stay or leave is a choice made, don't tell me you will be there in a time of crises when it hasn't happened yet and you have no idea how you will react.. Don't ya love when your ex says "You know you can call me if you need me? If you need someone to talk to" Yeah? Really? Where were you when I needed you? Oh yeah thats right...you walked out!
Sorry, excuse me...I guess I am still bitter from having divorce forced upon me |

No I wouldn't get married again, live together maybe? But not likely. I have become accustomed to living alone with my 2 little pugs. Like Tmommy said, its difficult to give that independence. She would have to be VERY self sufficient, independent, and able to care for herself, have her own place, car, employed etc. I don't want to be involved in a dependent type relationship.

Personally, I like to be around women in my own age bracket. People I can relate to, hold a conversation with. Someone who has life experience from the same time frame. JMO
