It is only human to feel what is true right now will always be so.
If you've ever broken a bone or sustained a burn, you can't help but find it hard to remember a time when you weren't in pain.
When you have a fight with your husband or wife, you may not be able to wrap your mind around a time when your love was new, and you thought her annoying habits were cute, or that his sarcasm was funny, but that time did exist.
Maybe it can exist again, but you'll never know if you fly off the handle and make an impulsive decision to give up your life together.
Some things can be deal breakers.
Sneaking around with another is a true insult to your marriage, and may be something you can never forgive.
Finding out that your spouse has racked up thousands of dollars in credit card debt to feed her gambling addiction may be something that puts you over the edge, and you might not be able to find it in your heart to forgive and forget.
We all have our breaking points, and no one can tell you to stick it out with someone whose actions have made your life together untenable.
It is a decision only you can make for yourself.
Still, you would do well to think carefully before you make it.
Too many marriages end over misunderstandings.
Hurt feelings and embarrassment can cause a wall of mistrust to be built, even if a little communication would set things right.
Ill timed criticisms and over reactions can combine to make a life together feel like pure torture.
The best thing you can do to avoid letting little things become unsolvable big ones is to pick your fights and keep the air between you clean.
Ask for clarification if you don't like what your partner said.
Do so calmly, and you may find she realizes that what she said wasn't a good or fair way to get her message across.
People don't always express their ideas clearly.
Sometimes, other factors, such as a bad day may influence how a thought is expressed.
Sometimes, they are a bit challenged in the sensitivity department, and may genuinely be surprised at the way you are reacting to a particular statement or action.
Many times in life, it is what is going on in the person's mind, rather than what comes out of their mouth that is the truth of their meaning.
Make sure you know what your spouse is thinking before you make a negative assumption about what she means.
Otherwise, you may end a very important part of your life over a mere misunderstanding.
