...we no longer believe we can grow together as a couple



I have zero respect for this type of stuff. If one side is abusive, unfaithful, etc., then OK.

A marriage vow is a serious thing. Don't take it unless you intend to work at it. Mrs. Zwin and I have had plenty of rough spots where it would have been easy to chunk it in. We made the commitment to not only stick it out, but fix the things things that got us to that point. The boys have gone off to do their own things now, and we are loving life being just the two of us again.

A happy, loving marriage is a goal and a product, not a lucky chance. Romance that woman in Year 25 like you did on Day 25. If your marriage dies, I personally think you gave up on it or didn't take it seriously in the first place.
