@cal91 I agree. Divorce is not funny. But the OP's experience is his to share and I respect him for that. Self deprecating humor is OK for me, so I don't take offense. I am happily married but also know how hard it is to be married to someone. I feel very lucky to have had someone to love and love me back for 23 years now. I don't ever anticipate us getting divorced, and it is my priority to make sure she is happy. She also works very hard to make me happy. We don't agree on everything, of course, but we do our best to find middle ground on the things we don't. Even though I have a serious audiophile habit, I always make my family my priority in my spending and my time. It's hard sometimes, especially when I get a new piece of gear and want to spend hours listening to it while domestic chores and responsibilities are calling. It used to cause arguments, but after some years and a growing maturity, I've realized that the music time can wait until the other important things are satisfied.
I don't mean to preach here. Just sharing my thoughts and experiences. Getting married has been one of the best decisions I've made. I would not trade her for my audio obsession or anything else. I consider myself extremely blessed. Thanks for listening and sorry for going off topic. Happy listening!
