You are right about what you say. I have come to believe that the "test" of a marriage is what happens when things go badly! When everyone is fat and happy, there aren't stresses and tough decisions to cope with.

My significant other is a real soldier when times are hard....and we've had those! Everybody does eventually. We've been together for 17 years this month. I'm keepin' her for the duration. :-)
