I get what you're saying, and I guess the way I put it seems a bit cavalier. I guess a lot gets lost in translation when you try to communicate complex ideas in short sentences.

This subject really can't be done justice without a good face to face conversation. Essentially, without loyalty, love, committment, friendship, etc... If our marriage breaks down in these areas and all that's left is the dead skeleton of responsibility - I'm walking out the door today.

This is not a casual or flippant thing. I have put everything into my marriage and family. I intend to hold myself to the same standard. But I have no illusions... Marriage isn't mystical - we build it, or it crumbles.

I 100% agree with this I just believe that most of the time we can build back up from the rubble.

I think you may be right.
