I was doing my Christmas shopping today (I am one of those people that wait until the day before), and while I was waiting I started talking to this woman. She was in her early 50s, and since the line was so long....I had a conversation with her for a little while.
She said she had been married for 37 years, had kids, and now grand kids. She spoke about her husband as if it was the greatest love of her life. She spent most of her life with him, and loved him dearly. She then said that he ended up cheating on her and eventually leaving her two years ago.
Before I could utter out the words "I am sorry"....She said something interesting...."Even If I knew he was going to cheat on me many years down the road and hurt me as much as he did, I probably still would have married him because of the love he gave me"...
I was surprised to hear that.
So now I am curious.......
Say someone gives you 5 minutes to look into the future.....You find out that your SO is going to cheat on you, or hurt you in someway later on in life.
5 minutes is over, and now you're back to the present time.
Would you continue your relationship, or end it?
