You may even have parented children together. So deeply were the two of you attracted to each other that you made a public commitment of your lives to each other, “so long as we both shall live.” Now you have a history together. A spouse is a person-a person with emotions, personality, desires and frustrations a person to whom you were deeply attracted at one point in your life a person for whom you had warm feelings and genuine care. I would get out before the stock fell further. When I listen to the deeply pained people in my office and at my seminars, my natural response is to cry, “Get out, get out, get out! Abandon the loser and get on with your life.” That would certainly be my approach if I had purchased bad stock. I wish that I could recommend divorce as an option. Thus, it is no shock that our society has come to accept the concept of a “throwaway marriage.” If you are no longer happy with your spouse, and your relationship has run on hard times, the easy thing is to abandon the relationship and start over. We sustain business relationships only so long as they are profitable to the bottom line. We even “throw away” unwanted pregnancies. We give our furniture to the secondhand shop not because it is no longer functional, but because it is no longer in style.
Our car and tech devices quickly become obsolete. Ours has been called the “Throwaway Society.” We buy our food in beautiful containers, which we then throw away. Devotion from Loving Your Spouse When You Feel Like Walking Away by Gary Chapman
