This is one of the best posts I've read, Joey 🙂 I so so agree with you! It's so tempting to say it in the middle of a fight but it's not an option for us either – and that's tough since we both have divorced parents. Thank you for this…such an encouragement that others are fighting for marriage as well!

SUCH A GOOD POST. Yes, I'm with you here. We had too much negative for me to use that. And him too. So thank you for the great reminder.

Love. I have to admit, we've used the D word before. We have had some massive fights. You throw a kid in the mix and life is HARD. But we have been working on it. We've taken some things out of our life that were causing us issues and it has really helped. We're both very passionate people and that makes for a very intense marriage at times.
Love that you guys had to work for your marriage before it even started. Because you're right, it's not always roses and butterflies. You knew it would be work going in.

great post! my husband and I agree that divorce is not an option and this is forever and all that jazz. however we joke about EVERYTHING so I know we have joked about it before – like I wouldn't divorce him because then I'll get deported. There would only be 3 reasons that would cause us to get a divorce and they are such serious things that will never happen but it's good to know what would be over the line for us lol. that being said, i am going to make an effort to ensure we don't joke about it anymore. cause like you said, it provides an out or plants the seed of doubt.

I love this and completely agree with you. We don't joke about it (there's really no reason to) and we definitely NEVER use it as a serious threat just to get our way. Being honest, there was ONE argument we had that was really, really bad a year or two after we got married. (We have bad arguments a lot – we're human too – but this was back before we learned how to fight a bit better, haha) I was so angry at something he had done/said and it was something so personal to me that brought up a lot of past issues, and I did tell him that if things didn't change, I was going to leave, and move back to Washington. Immediately after I said it, I felt TERRIBLE. And later, I apologized and told him I should have never threatened him with a divorce, and I would never do it again – and I haven't. Because of everything you said above.

For someone over here about ready to enter into this thing called marriage thank you for this post. I told Mark there is no mention of divorce or what ifs……this is for life. I'm with you girl. I think learning how to fight and fight fair is so hard to do. People throw out the D word way too much and it's the least productive way of fighting!

I think there are legitimate reasons for divorce. The word should be used then. Otherwise you always need to meet in the middle.

Good for you for posting this!! I've been married for 4 years but its not rainbows and unicorns every day. That has NEVER come up either. Someone asked me just yesterday "how did you know that he was the right person?" I told them because he can give me what I want and what I need. But at the same time you don't really know. You just make it work because you love each other and you made a promise. And who else is going to make my husband is Manwich? 🙂

AMEN girl, we are the same. 6 years of marriage, and NO WAY has it ever come up. It's a very serious matter and sadly some people don't take it that serious.
