marriage
Marriage is not so much a word as it is a sentence–a life sentence.
Will I Ever Be Enough?
When will I be enough? I ask myself this question so often. When is he going to love me as much as he loves everyone else? When is he going to choose me? When is he going to put me first? When is he going to stand beside me? When am I going to be treated like his wife instead of someone else?

The Day This All Started
It’s been nine years since took I took that leap of faith. And little did I know that I would start drowning so quickly. But for some reason, I never gave up. I still haven’t. Some days I want to—don’t get me wrong—I’m human. We all succumb at some point.

We have some issues outside of the addiction that had previously caused some unease in our relationship.

One Step at a Time
Though this whole process has been long and hard, I finally hit my breaking point a few days ago. We had an argument about whether or not the amount of progress he has made so far is acceptable. His argument was that the recovery process is harder than I think it is. My rebuttal was that he is being handed resources from all over the place to use towards his recovery. They've literally been laid out on a silver platter for him. He is the one who is deciding not to use them. After arguing about it for another 10 minutes or so, he finally said what he was thinking. "You chose to be with me. I'm sorry but it's the truth."

Rekindle the Spark In Your Marriage/Relationship
There are many couples that are finding themselves overworked and stressed out by the lack of time that they have to spend with one another. A marriage or relationship may be taking a bad turn because there are no outlets for the couple to enjoy themselves. If this is the case, it is time to get together and discuss this as a couple. It works better when a married couple can sit down and come to this realization that they need to do something about this. Everyone is not going to get together and talk about it, but it helps so much more when there is a true conversation about how you need to do something to get the spark back in your marriage.

The Institution of Marriage: Yeah, OK?
I'm sure the title looks misleading, possibly cynical—and maybe it is. Yet, at this period of my life, I have not made it to the infamous cornerstone of life's journey; Marriage. The old holy union between two lovers that had concluded that they want to do this thing call life together until death. The very thought of it, right now, makes me laugh. Gut-clutching laughter. That's pretty dark. It might be, however, looking at my life; I haven't had great examples of marriage. Along with being possibly on the end of what many married people seek; the adulteress. I can't help but crack the hell up.
