“A short while before the wedding, when Mark and I were picking readings and vows, Mark told me that he didn’t want to use a wedding vow that included the promise to be faithful. He was worried in some odd nagging way, he said, that he might not be able to remain true to that vow.

maybe it’s just me, but if I had a personal value of being “faithful” to whoever I was with, and it was important to me that my S/O did as well, and then on our wedding day he just shows up and is like UHMMM idk. I didn’t know this was part of the package…I would be like wut. okay. we are talking about this before we get married where we are legally and financially intertwined for X number of years.
