Me (34M) and my wife (38F) and going through a break-up after 6 years of marriage. The relationship has been deteriorating for a long time, but I have held it together for the sake of our sweet child. But now it’s to the point where the relationship was that bad, it would be better if we are apart. Her family is a very Christian family, and they are against the divorce. Multiple times they have told me that I am breaking my vowels, that I agreed to ‘for better, for worse’

But what about the other vowels? What about ‘to have, and to hold’ ‘to honour and obey’ ‘to love, and to cherish’ those have all been broken multiple times in the past by my ‘wife’ but that doesn’t seem to matter? It’s seems to be only the for better, for worse one them at anyone ever quotes, and ever holds anything too.

I just wonder if anyone could shed any light on that. May also be a bit of a rant to the vast internet!! But hey!
