I guess im asking randomly but does anybody know a trick to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly forgot the password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me.
I got engaged on Christmas day and my own parents got divorced for similar reasons to this. This really hits the spot and is very encouraging. Thank you!
This mentality is parasitic. Only remaining in a marriage for your own benefit and leaving when it is not benefiting you is by definition, selfish. Selfish is what you vowed before God not to be.
I am in this situation. I have 3 kids who adore my husband, who is not their father. He filed for divorce 2 weeks ago. Please pray, only God can fix this & I have faith that He will.
@Joshua Smith then show her yourself friend. You are the head of this relationship as was Christ in his bride of the church. I'm proud that you are taking control of your life. I know you are bringing the Lord great joy through your rehabilitation process. God bless you and may you be filled with his grace.
My wife put in for a divorce 8-2-24. She saw a lawyer while I was out in California for a moving trip for my parents. Only way I found out was her location services showing she is at a lawyer, that was 3 weeks ago. For the past 2 1/2 weeks she has been telling me how much I didn’t do for her but I’m the one that as a man with no kids took on her and her 3 kids almost 10 years ago and for first 3 years the relationship between me and kids were great. But then it started going down hill, main reason I didn’t approve of a lot of behaviors they did. My wife has made many statements that she raises her kids how she and her ex want to. What do they need me for? Just money support? We had 3 small kids of our own 5,4,2. I tried leaving her back in 22 and after a week I saw my error and didn’t want to break up a family. I tried really hard to change my ways and be more accepting of things and was seeing progress for past 6 months before she went to get papers for divorce. She doesn’t want to go see counseling together. She doesn’t wear her rings and has told me she doesn’t feel married to me. Also she says she is a Christian but every time I show her biblical topics that contradict her belief she gets mad and says Bible is wrong. At this point I’m at a loss. I’d love to get with some people and get some help and advice.
I wish my husband heard this. He said he no longer loves me.... Jesus Christ is my husband and I'm living in His Love. I'm praying God will help him love me again because I don't wish to break my marriage
@@danielcampbell9637 God has done an amazing miracle in my life. Jesus has transformed my husband. God has restored my marriage. It's been 8 months now. God has made everything new. Jesus Christ is still the same miracle working God🙏
Pastor John is 200% correct. God Himself is interested in our marriage because He initiated it in the first place. We need to humble ourselves before God 🙏and ask for grace. God can and will make all things new. I personally didn't not give up. I held on to God's word and promises. And Jesus didn't disappoint me. He has made all things new so long as we remain true our covenant 🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@racheldaniels8803 Amen! I’m so happy for you, this is what I’m hoping, believing, and trusting in the Lord for. I stand on His promises and surrender this to Him, and I know He will bless us.
My wife of 43 years walked out of our marriage and said she didn't love me any more so much hurt and pain 💔 all I can do is trust God for healing and pray that his will be done in Jesus name amen
My parents stayed married for 63 years. She was devoted. He was cold to her and us. He died and never changed to her or us. Us children have a variety of trauma .there was no joy for any of us .
Hey man but them staying together "honored God's covenant". People that put up with it have built up with them a lot of treasure in heaven when they die.
Also, unless you are in an abusive relationship or one where you barely see them because they're always working, or one where there's illness/disability (or children who are sick, that sort of thing), what on earth is oh-so-hard about being married, especially as a Christian who even just basically trying to follow God? You get up in the morning. You speak to the person with love. You listen. You support. You both go to work or whatever it is you do. You pray for them throughout the day. You come home. You ask about their day. You love and listen and support some more - ALL wihtout expecting anything in return. You go through life's difficulties just like everyone else, except that you have someone there to help you and someone to be a companion when the day is through!
Every return is from God. You’re so love your family but God love more than that. When you feel hard just saying to God, ask him whatever. He will reward you, and one day will find that You always have awesome God always watching over you, providing you everything you need.and one day you may confess God you are my portion, I am satisfied fully by your unfailing love. God bless you!
Christian Mayes Christian Mayes oh, yes. I didn’t understand about that. I am married with unbeliever. There is a lot of hard time. But when I give birth to my daughter, I find that I love her more than myself. True love is selfless, generally give others best things. True love is from God. I think God will using marriage teaching true love.
My husband physically abused me for the first 5 years of marriage. He eventually stopped. Now 9 years later (still married) he has purchased another home (due to his anger problems). Continues to live there the majority of the time,currently works a a lot.I’m not in love with him anymore,I feel as though our bond has been broken due to everything but according to scripture,I’m still bound to him and I’m absolutely miserable.He continues to try his hardest to be a better husband but now I’m left feeling broken.Divorce has crossed my many many times lately. I feel stuck. I want to keep our covenant but the division continues due to circumstances.
The question asked angers me. I feel it's because his wife is taking care of a newborn and a small child. Obviously, creating these honeymoon children were acts of lovemaking, probably of which he felt lots of love and affection from his wife. But now that her focus and affection towards him is divided, as it should be, he feels less dotted on and wants out of the marriage. What he should be doing is shifting his desires from receiving love to that of showering love upon his children and supporting his wife in caring for the children. Marriage counseling should really hit heavy on the shift from being just a couple to being parents. The horizontal mambo yields results... fruitful results, lol. Grow up, be strong in your marriage, stop being self-centered and raise your children instead of acting like the world and your wife should revolve around you. If you dont want kids, don't do the mambo.
Falling in love and falling out love is a "western culture" thing. Feelings are fickle. But western culture is based on "feelings", that's why so many divorces.
Please do an interview like this for the spouse who believes this message, but is being left by the one that doesn’t. I’d like to hear words of encouragement and anything they should do, and in his mind, at what point specifically the spouse who believes can do no more…you can’t stop a spouse from leaving and if you’re the spouse that believes this message, it’s confusing when to know you’ve “done everything you can do” and you just have to watch it happen against your will. Where can they find peace? What is the very last ditch effort? When does God stop holding the spouse who is trying everything to keep it together accountable? Its hard knowing some day, the leaving spouse will understand this message when its too late. Do you believe there is any obligation if an ex-spouse comes back with that realization? What if they were clouded by mental illness, addiction, etc? Also, please cover different types of abuses, even verbal/mental, and cheating etc and how that affects a message like this. Where is the line? Talk about boundaries and safe guards that could be used as a safety measure before divorce, etc.
I miss my wife so much, it hurts so bad, I have to pray to God to keep her out of my dreams cause it hurts that much, I've cried everyday for months, I wish I had never hurt her. I wish I'd never hurt her, I wish I'd never hurt her, I wish Id never hurt her.
My wife of 13 years left me 2 weeks now, most likely for another man since she had been secretly talking on the phone with another man and coming home at 5 am in the morning! This began when she started to workout, lose weight and posting pictures on Snapchat. She had many men text her and give her the attention she craved. After her uncle died she fell into severe depression and then she told me she didn't love me anymore after 13 years! I think pastor John missed a whole aspect of divorce that is biblically true but forgotten and that is the Demonic influence of self glorification, Lust, Jezebel spirit, Selfishness and how Satan loves destroying marriages. God created the very first marriage institution and that was between Adam and Eve and just like that, Satan destroyed it! I looked in to my wife's eyes before she left and she had no soul in there, blank stare as if she was a different person and not the soft caring eyes of that person I have loved for 13 years. She appeared to be under the influence of demonic entities. Her mother I found out later was involved with Witchcraft, gambling, pimping, her brother into prostitution, sexual promiscuity and wife swapping, her sister with mental illness, father a schizophrenic, cousin bipolar......In other words....She and her family are Ungodly! This is truly a God send! God is Blessing me and telling me that He is cleaning house and that she is unworthy for me! Isn't God Great?
I am so glad that God showed you the truth in your situation. Witchcraft and demonic spirits / influence is missed by SO many bible believing Christians. I’ve learned to separate the person from the spirit. I think it’s of upmost importance that we grasp the scripture “our fight is not against flesh and blood (people), but of principalities (spirits) and evil/dark rulers in high places (Satan and his cronies).... This doesn’t excuse the persons bad behavior by saying “oh it’s the bad spirit that made them do it,” but what it does do is allow us to pray for the person to be delivered from what ever demonic spirit they are under.....and to understand the person that God created them to be is being used, fooled by, or even possessed (probably unknowingly) by an evil spirit. When it boils down to it though, each person is responsible for desiring deliverance. I believe God can restore anything. I also believe that God understands our hearts and minds and shows us great mercy. Intercession has saved my family. Pray without ceasing. Pray that the spirit of witchcraft and jezebel be broken off of her and her family. God does amazing things. Much love to you and God bless you
@@williamtoney2599 this is why Christians never open up about their mental health not everything is the devil the world is physically fallen too and just like cancer and all physical illnesses mental health is a real issue...I went through post partum for 2 years and on top of being diagnosed with microscopic colitis...stop this dangerous mindset, plus a lot of things aren’t mentioned in the Bible God says to be reasonable.
I have a question to Pastor John's statement regarding there being "joy in keeping your covenant". My parents stayed together despite obvious issues (primarily my dad's alcoholism). These issues drastically affected our family for years and still cause strife to this day. I have to ask, where is the joy in that? They had multiple opportunities to walk away and didn't, and yet they still ended up sad, my dad bitter and angry and my mom without a true friend to rely on and constantly berated verbally. I just don't see how staying in something like that could be blessed... I know I can't see it like God does, but still...
My current wife that just went to go get a divorce from me always did the screen down and every time i would walk by she always had a text up and would immediately switch off as soon as I would walk by. I’ve told her many many times how much that bothers me and she would be like you think I’m cheating? Why you need to hide from your husband?
How I wish I could be married. It's unbearably painful to see how some people have the love, companionship, comfort, support, and help of a spouse, while I go through this difficult life alone. All of that, AND Jesus too. I would never want to make a husband an idol. I would not go into marriage thinking all my needs will be met or, "What can I get out of it." I would go into it seeking to love my husband well, and to help him follow Jesus Christ in whatever ways I could do so. Most people - even Christians - just want to be "in love". I've even heard it confessed that sometimes they love their spouse more than God, and that this is something they struggle with! And yet God allows them that privilege of marriage. I will never understand why I have been denied this most basic of relationships.
Yesica1993 I've been married twice, cheated on twice. I'm happier alone. I can focus more on God. I will pray for you, but I'd say start with being thankful that the Lord is your husband. There is no better husband. Faithful, dependable, true, never leaving you, always looking out for you and loving you more than anyone. One day He may bless you with an earthly husband. But until then, feel blessed. Having had a wonderful marriage and friendship, I know it can be great. But even when we were at our happiest, the relationship I have with the lord is 1,000x better. Stay blessed sister.
Yessica I can understand your loneliness. I am separated from my husband. Just like the video-he was no longer in love with me. I have been in an adulterous relationship with a man. It ended bitterly and God slapped me upside the head which is what I needed. I pray for my husband and now I know God wants me to pray for him. My suggestion would be is to get busy doing something for the Lord. Maybe volunteer at a soup kitchen etc. It is the best thing to do is to be a blessing to someone else when you are depressed. God will bless you in return. And you never know who you may encounter. Maybe your future husband? I will pray for you tonight. Stick close to the Lord and use this time to grow as a Christian. Be blessed, my sister.
If you truly want a good relationship. Make sure you look for qualities the Bible says are important. Look for someone who is kind, compassionate, patient, loving. Not easily angered, keeps no record of wrong. Someone who longs to forgive, and loves to give. Obviously this someone needs to have a strong walk with the Lord. But look for those qualities first and if they're cute second. Looks may fade over time but those great qualities will seem even more attractive as you age. Simply forget the flesh until you've found a match that will be a blessing tp you spiritually, and then see if there's attraction too.
Only God can restore and breathe new life into a dead marriage. I pray that those who are suffering through difficult times will submit to the Lord and follow after the Spirit and not the flesh. Let them be transformed by the renewing of their minds in Your word.
The only thing I disagree on, on this is im still in love with my wife since the beginning even tho she fail out. We've been married since 19 years this year 2024. I said i dos because of the love and because i saw Christ in her. I dont understand why people think love is conditional. They dont know Jesus Christ!!!
My wife and I have been having problems with her getting pregnant I was still there she started too become depressed and told me she no longer loved me after a huge fight when she became nasty towards me, and now she's rushing a divorce
Love is a choice. My wife that just went to get a divorce said she wasn’t in love anymore. A lot of issues between us. Every time is always about her and her 3 kids she had from past ex. I took her in with no idea how to parent and she stated more than a few times that she raises her kids the way she wants with her ex. What does she need me for?
Sometimes GOD has a plan for the 2 separate of each other. After praying and asking GOD what HE would have me do, HE showed me several times and ways over that HE had something different planned for us both separate from each other.
Be carefull man... he never planning marriges to seperate by man... maybe you pray to wrong GOD... He showed His way on His words the Bible, be carefull with your own thought..
Me too... When I Was renewed by God... He changed my Heart I Fall Out Of Love Suddenly Maybe God Loves me So Much and I Forget myself and not respecting myself enduring Mental and emotional abuse and Cheated By My Husband But Ill try to stay to have different Story from our parent because i came from a broken family and my husband too... So I said Ill make it different I will stay no matter what Just to have the kids a complete family But when Im at my lowest i surrendered to God and From that time God Changed my Heart toward my husband.. Even i was praying that time To God To Bring back my feelings to my Husband Nothing happens...Can i have some advice?
When we married, I knew there would be times of anger and regret, because those are part of life. I told myself to think of at least three reasons (I thought of five.) why I was marrying this man. The reasons had to be lasting ones, not short-term ones. During our 50+ years of marriage, there have been times of anger when I wondered why I ever married this man. Then it was time to remind myself of the lasting qualities that were so important to me. Those qualities have been there all along and remind me to be patient, because "this, too, shall pass." Good times always soon follow.
What about enduring a sexless marriage for more than 15 years? He now wants to try and we are going to therapy. Help me please someone. Please take away the heartbreak and depression. Not only are in therapy but we recently moved to a new city and feel alone and depressed. Please pray for me. I pray every single day for purpose and love and healing. My children are keeping me alive. I just want to move back to the city we lived in. It’s only one hour away. I would love to understand why God moves us here. And I pray for a miracle everyday do my husband and I can unite in love and sexual intimacy. Please please pray for me! Thank you brothers and sisters!
@@VanessaSimon26 Ask God to reveal something IN YOU. To use your situation to allow Him to CHANGE YOU. Ask Him to help you to take a few risks and use His wisdom and discernment so you can establish healthy relationships with other godly women. Remember with God, divorce is NOT an option. It seems like your husband wants help, and THAT'S A VERY GOOD THING! Commit to a church, and serve! There's no better way to get your mind off your troubles than serving others selflessly, and it helps you live out loving the church just like God would want you to! You are so VERY lucky to have a husband seeking help! Coming from a 34 year old whose never been married and birthed children. =-)
Would you use the exact same argumentation to answer to a woman considering a divorce? Just curious, because the vast majority of divorces are triggered by women and the motivations and mindset are probably different. This case with a guy seems like is a bit of an exception.
I got a divorce because my ex cheated on me. And then me on him because he cheated. We were very young when we got married. I t was basically a shot gun wedding. I don't really think we were in love to begin with. Plus neither of us were Christians. He got married a few years before we got divorced. I never remarried.
This is possibly the sweetest and most hope-filled message I've ever heard about marriage.
I guess im asking randomly but does anybody know a trick to log back into an instagram account?
I stupidly forgot the password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me.
I'm not even religious but the things this pastor says is very good and he earned my respect because he was so factual

Hey man but them staying together "honored God's covenant". People that put up with it have built up with them a lot of treasure in heaven when they die.

Also, unless you are in an abusive relationship or one where you barely see them because they're always working, or one where there's illness/disability (or children who are sick, that sort of thing), what on earth is oh-so-hard about being married, especially as a Christian who even just basically trying to follow God?

Christian Mayes Christian Mayes oh, yes. I didn’t understand about that. I am married with unbeliever. There is a lot of hard time. But when I give birth to my daughter, I find that I love her more than myself. True love is selfless, generally give others best things. True love is from God. I think God will using marriage teaching true love.
My husband physically abused me for the first 5 years of marriage. He eventually stopped. Now 9 years later (still married) he has purchased another home (due to his anger problems). Continues to live there the majority of the time,currently works a a lot.I’m not in love with him anymore,I feel as though our bond has been broken due to everything but according to scripture,I’m still bound to him and I’m absolutely miserable.He continues to try his hardest to be a better husband but now I’m left feeling broken.Divorce has crossed my many many times lately. I feel stuck. I want to keep our covenant but the division continues due to circumstances.
The question asked angers me. I feel it's because his wife is taking care of a newborn and a small child. Obviously, creating these honeymoon children were acts of lovemaking, probably of which he felt lots of love and affection from his wife. But now that her focus and affection towards him is divided, as it should be, he feels less dotted on and wants out of the marriage. What he should be doing is shifting his desires from receiving love to that of showering love upon his children and supporting his wife in caring for the children. Marriage counseling should really hit heavy on the shift from being just a couple to being parents. The horizontal mambo yields results... fruitful results, lol. Grow up, be strong in your marriage, stop being self-centered and raise your children instead of acting like the world and your wife should revolve around you. If you dont want kids, don't do the mambo.
Exactly right! Everyone wants the fun of making babies. Few want the hard part of taking care of them!

We don't know the couple but it is a possibility he's the abuser and she fell under manipulation to be married. You are right on the $!
Very very true 😙💯
What a beautiful truth. What a beautiful God!!
I have so much peace and hope after hearing this, I just hope my wife has the relationship she has with Christ to see all of this through
Falling in love and falling out love is a "western culture" thing. Feelings are fickle. But western culture is based on "feelings", that's why so many divorces.
This is the most accurate and eye opening video I’ve seen about why God’s covenants are so important and valuable
I talk about this on my podcast episode 1. Love this message. I've added it to my channel's playlist title "Biblical Divorce Advice"
I love his teaching on marriage, all Bible based.

My current wife that just went to go get a divorce from me always did the screen down and every time i would walk by she always had a text up and would immediately switch off as soon as I would walk by. I’ve told her many many times how much that bothers me and she would be like you think I’m cheating? Why you need to hide from your husband?
How I wish I could be married. It's unbearably painful to see how some people have the love, companionship, comfort, support, and help of a spouse, while I go through this difficult life alone. All of that, AND Jesus too. I would never want to make a husband an idol. I would not go into marriage thinking all my needs will be met or, "What can I get out of it." I would go into it seeking to love my husband well, and to help him follow Jesus Christ in whatever ways I could do so.
Most people - even Christians - just want to be "in love". I've even heard it confessed that sometimes they love their spouse more than God, and that this is something they struggle with! And yet God allows them that privilege of marriage. I will never understand why I have been denied this most basic of relationships.
Yesica1993 I've been married twice, cheated on twice. I'm happier alone. I can focus more on God. I will pray for you, but I'd say start with being thankful that the Lord is your husband. There is no better husband. Faithful, dependable, true, never leaving you, always looking out for you and loving you more than anyone. One day He may bless you with an earthly husband. But until then, feel blessed. Having had a wonderful marriage and friendship, I know it can be great. But even when we were at our happiest, the relationship I have with the lord is 1,000x better. Stay blessed sister.
@ Elaine
I'm sorry for what you went through. Betrayal is unbearable. Thanks.
Yessica I can understand your loneliness. I am separated from my husband. Just like the video-he was no longer in love with me. I have been in an adulterous relationship with a man. It ended bitterly and God slapped me upside the head which is what I needed. I pray for my husband and now I know God wants me to pray for him. My suggestion would be is to get busy doing something for the Lord. Maybe volunteer at a soup kitchen etc. It is the best thing to do is to be a blessing to someone else when you are depressed. God will bless you in return. And you never know who you may encounter. Maybe your future husband? I will pray for you tonight. Stick close to the Lord and use this time to grow as a Christian. Be blessed, my sister.
Thanks, I appreciate it. I am so sorry you are going through this. I can't imagine the pain. I will pray for you as well.
If you truly want a good relationship. Make sure you look for qualities the Bible says are important. Look for someone who is kind, compassionate, patient, loving. Not easily angered, keeps no record of wrong. Someone who longs to forgive, and loves to give. Obviously this someone needs to have a strong walk with the Lord. But look for those qualities first and if they're cute second. Looks may fade over time but those great qualities will seem even more attractive as you age. Simply forget the flesh until you've found a match that will be a blessing tp you spiritually, and then see if there's attraction too.
Only God can restore and breathe new life into a dead marriage. I pray that those who are suffering through difficult times will submit to the Lord and follow after the Spirit and not the flesh. Let them be transformed by the renewing of their minds in Your word.
The only thing I disagree on, on this is im still in love with my wife since the beginning even tho she fail out. We've been married since 19 years this year 2024. I said i dos because of the love and because i saw Christ in her. I dont understand why people think love is conditional. They dont know Jesus Christ!!!
My wife and I have been having problems with her getting pregnant I was still there she started too become depressed and told me she no longer loved me after a huge fight when she became nasty towards me, and now she's rushing a divorce
I would be so sad/mad if my husband felt he wasn't in love with me but stayed with me... all the while not loving me.
Love is a choice. My wife that just went to get a divorce said she wasn’t in love anymore. A lot of issues between us. Every time is always about her and her 3 kids she had from past ex. I took her in with no idea how to parent and she stated more than a few times that she raises her kids the way she wants with her ex. What does she need me for?
I think this also reflects on non married couples 😓
How so?
Father please continue to change me and make me the husband and father that you want me to be in Jesus name amen
A marriage HAS to have love. Without it, the marriage is screwed
What am amazing message.
Pastor John💯👍🇿🇦🙏🙏
Sometimes GOD has a plan for the 2 separate of each other. After praying and asking GOD what HE would have me do, HE showed me several times and ways over that HE had something different planned for us both separate from each other.
Be carefull man... he never planning marriges to seperate by man... maybe you pray to wrong GOD... He showed His way on His words the Bible, be carefull with your own thought..

He changed my Heart I Fall Out Of Love Suddenly Maybe God Loves me So Much and I Forget myself and not respecting myself enduring Mental and emotional abuse and Cheated By My Husband But Ill try to stay to have different Story from our parent because i came from a broken family and my husband too... So I said Ill make it different I will stay no matter what Just to have the kids a complete family But when Im at my lowest i surrendered to God and From that time God Changed my Heart toward my husband.. Even i was praying that time To God To Bring back my feelings to my Husband Nothing happens...Can i have some advice?
@@SuperBagoezzz excatly you right
How do you deal with the moments you fall out of love? In my family, those are terrible times and it takes a toll on everyone.
When we married, I knew there would be times of anger and regret, because those are part of life. I told myself to think of at least three reasons (I thought of five.) why I was marrying this man. The reasons had to be lasting ones, not short-term ones. During our 50+ years of marriage, there have been times of anger when I wondered why I ever married this man. Then it was time to remind myself of the lasting qualities that were so important to me. Those qualities have been there all along and remind me to be patient, because "this, too, shall pass." Good times always soon follow.
What about enduring a sexless marriage for more than 15 years? He now wants to try and we are going to therapy. Help me please someone. Please take away the heartbreak and depression. Not only are in therapy but we recently moved to a new city and feel alone and depressed. Please pray for me. I pray every single day for purpose and love and healing. My children are keeping me alive. I just want to move back to the city we lived in. It’s only one hour away. I would love to understand why God moves us here. And I pray for a miracle everyday do my husband and I can unite in love and sexual intimacy. Please please pray for me! Thank you brothers and sisters!
coolkidella I know how you feel.
@@VanessaSimon26 Ask God to reveal something IN YOU. To use your situation to allow Him to CHANGE YOU. Ask Him to help you to take a few risks and use His wisdom and discernment so you can establish healthy relationships with other godly women. Remember with God, divorce is NOT an option. It seems like your husband wants help, and THAT'S A VERY GOOD THING! Commit to a church, and serve! There's no better way to get your mind off your troubles than serving others selflessly, and it helps you live out loving the church just like God would want you to! You are so VERY lucky to have a husband seeking help! Coming from a 34 year old whose never been married and birthed children. =-)
Bring in love isn't biblical. Love is more than a feeling. It's an action and an unconditional promise.
Well said!!
Would you use the exact same argumentation to answer to a woman considering a divorce? Just curious, because the vast majority of divorces are triggered by women and the motivations and mindset are probably different. This case with a guy seems like is a bit of an exception.
I got a divorce because my ex cheated on me. And then me on him because he cheated. We were very young when we got married. I t was basically a shot gun wedding. I don't really think we were in love to begin with. Plus neither of us were Christians. He got married a few years before we got divorced. I never remarried.
I’ve never cheated on my wife that just went to get a divorce. I took on her and 3 kids with her ex.
Amen
This stuff is almost always about a third person.
True

God, if I had a woman in my life NO WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY would I be as ungrateful as so many married people are today
Wait till you get married. Then come back..
it’s easy to think that way I used to think that way too but with time and hurt it eventually slowly starts happening.
