[quote=Anonymous][quote]I wholeheartedly agree with the above post that society is selling a lie when it comes to shaming the option of actually keeping marriages in tact after betrayal. Some betrayals are too big, or rather there is no remorse or willingness to quit.I get that. Some foundations are not strong enough to withstand it. But perfectly good and loving people screw up sometimes and have dark seasons and can be brought out of it. It’s a lie that everything will be better if you just start over. Wrong. You have to go through the same pain and recovery either way!!!! But with divorce added in, you get the same pain and recovery plus additional financial stress plus added insecurities of new stepmom plus losing time with kids plus plus plus plus plus plus…the list is long[/quote]

This is a really good take on this situation.  With narcissism becoming the norm, it follows that ANY perceived or real transgression against you in ANY way is reason enough for you to extricate yourself from the relationship/situation.  No one has the resilience or endurance to stay and work through issues, problems, etc.

Jen and Brandon appeared to have built a strong marriage and family, enough that they were able to add to it and to minister to others in a meaningful way.  Then they got caught up in appearances, fame, fortune and it all went to hell. [/quote]
