You are committing yourself to another person for the rest of your life. It's hard! Below are some confessions that are really hard to hear, from people that are fighting for their marriage tooth and nail.

Stef: Is it ok to be afraid of commitment because I've been cheated on so many times that it's hard to think me and my bf could get married Also is marriage as bad as ton of people say?
Lily: Cheating is NOT gonna save your marriage...have sex with your husband only or get divorced
Amandanazim: If you have to cheat to save the marriage, you are in the wrong marriage , get divorced
Jazzmyn: Love isn't always the key to a happy marriage! Within any relationship there is give and take! I'm only a year in and we've both had to make huge compromises. Yer we love each other but it's so much deeper than that! His my right hand . . . I'd be lost with out him! If that gut feeling ever changed then i's be in trouble . . .
Kris: Over sixty years ago, my parents decided that if they married, divorce would never be an option to solving problems. You go, mom and dad...sixty years ago today, married, and still in love!
Veronica: All of these are from Whisper...
Jennuhhh09: Please tell me how cheating could be a way to save your marriage!?
Emily: Cheating in a relationship is never ever okay. Does anyone else think it's ironic that the article said it was okay to cheat, but not to lie? Isn't cheating worse than lying?
Katie: I don't think the point was to condone cheating, but to show the horrible, heartbreaking state that that marriage is in.
Indi: No matter how hard your marriage is you should never ever cheat. How will that save your marriage??!!!
