People automatically get happy when they hear about weddings...doesn't mean the marriage makes any sense whatsoever.
Separating the marriage reality from the wedding marketing hoopla is really important. A wedding is one day...a marriage can be an eternity, especially marriage to an alcoholic.
I didn't marry mine or even live with him...and I'm so thankful.
Seems like most alcoholics are already married...to their addiction. I've never been interested in being second.
