Larry, I just now got back to this thread. I suppose I should clarify a somewhat poorly worded post. I was simply trying to say that marriage is a two way street and it's important that we are able to change direction when necessary.
I fully understand the 'happy wife, happy life' adage, but I'm convinced that decisions made together rather than for the benefit of one individual will send the marriage down the road smoother than 'just keeping it between the ditches.'
We all face the dilemma that Harry is up against. Being in an RV park that is basically 55 and over we are friends with many men and women who have lost their spouses over the years. I am truly amazed every day how resilient these people are. I am sure they still grieve inside to some extent, but their lives go on.
