i may be naive, but...

i'm quite offended by this:

look, i appreciate sarcasm as much as the next person. no, i probably appreciate it more than most people. and i'm not particularly traditional, but there are some conservative family values i strongly believe in, and marriage is one of them. i know divorce rates are high and these days, and it seems that there's little reason to believe that marriage even has a chance anymore. but it really pains me to see such a cynical view -- such a perspective that sacrifice and commitment means a surrender to lifelong unhappiness.

doesn't anybody believe in the duty behind marriage anymore? doesn't anybody see their spouse as a partner rather than as something that simply weighs them down and holds them back?

hell? a snotty tissue? spousal abuse?
disgusting.

OK, and what about sarcasm?
:))

btw. I really know a couple of people who have real troubles in marriage and they cannot get out of that because they are not those types. If your husband is an alcoholic, what can you do?
