    I promised to forsake all others and to protect my wife with every all my heart and soul and to keep God first in all that I do from the good to the bad my mother dad kids ect all take a back seat to my wife. But for her, its her kids their boyfriends not husbands grandkids,sister whom ever else comes before me to her I mean if her or her kids fall short from paying a bill then my wife will ask me to leave the home supposidly her and I share this isnt the first time shes said this but its definately the last time because i no longer want to be apart of a union that no unity between her and i exist and since her family comes before me she wouldnt miss someone who meant nothing to her from the beginning sorry i poured my heart to whom ever happens to see and read this but I feel 200% better thanks for listening

    What happned to the word Obey in the traditional wedding vow this may be the reason so many marriages fail as we continue to be disobedient to God. if he felt the need to include the word obey, who are we to change what is truly a very important command from him. but leave it to man to confuse this word as with so many others a form dominance over a spouse as would be the case concerning an animal this not what he meant I'm sure, to obey your spouse would be to listen if asked to do something like when speaking he ask you to hold your tongue as you may inadvertantly misspeak on a situation that may cause a problem you dont see which would a good time for you to obey such a request now if your ask to roll over or beg then i would see a problem with you adhering to that order
