From time to time I hear a husband or wife wonder if perhaps they made a mistake in marrying the person that they did.Read the rest.
Things have usually gotten pretty bad by the time this question arises. Maybe the differences between the husband and wife are much greater than either one anticipated. The husband is neat, the wife is messy. The wife is talkative, the husband is quiet. The husband is always on time, the wife lives more in the moment. The wife is social, the husband is a homebody. These differences, which were initially just an irritant, have grown into something massive. What was once a tiny gap has become a great divide.
A marriage that once seemed so promising now seems to have little hope. That’s when the “did I marry the wrong person?” question usually arises.
