A Promise Before God

A couple I know decided they had made a mistake and they needed to end their marriage. There families intervened, sat them down for the 'You made a promise before God' talk and they're now trying again.

Has this ever worked out well?

Sometimes things are over and it's best to get out before too much pain and damage occurs. Instead, this couple is now gritting their teeth and doing all the things everyone says will make it all better whether they want it to be or not. Counseling? Check. Spending time together? Check. Reading how to save your marriage books? Check.

And they're both miserable.

Let's just hope no one tells them having a baby is a great way to get a marriage back on track.
