Marriage is give and take. I was married 47 years before my wife passed away. Some good some bad but over all it is not what i expected it to be. a lot of people ask me how i was married so long and if their were ever times i wanted out? my answer? "Sticking together and no" sure times were very hard at first but we fought threw together. I often joke about it saying you did not dare get a divorce back then but the truth is i married her for a reason and no matter how bad things got( waking up to lamps being thrown at me or her desires at numerous times to sneak off and see what life would be like if we had not got married) i stayed with her. And she stayed with me threw all my trials and tribulations. I have been married more then half my life and i contribute my success and the success of my children and grandchildren to the fact that the two of us stuck together for so long. i look at all the young kids today getting married then divorced so rapidly has just become the way. "it's a new millennium" people say "new rules". well God's laws have always been the same in the good book and in my book. I was shocked when i found out that Grace Chapel's Sr. Pastor John Zivojinovic's daughter was getting a 2nd divorce in as many years. I wonder how this can be acceptable? when did God's law stop being God's law? I am carious as to what is going on with both marriages for either party to give up so soon. from what i overheard the latest husband was making death treats and was jobless for months. What makes a man make treats to a woman he vowed to spend the rest of his life with months after they took an oath before God? Have they tried consoling? if so for how long? it seems to me their is more behind this story then the one sided argument i overheard. I will no longer attend Sunday services at Grace Chapel and my prayers go out to both parties. i will miss Pastor Zivojinovic's sermons but i can no longer sit and worship along side people who change God's law to fit their own personal idea of what worship and marriage is! It’s nice to hear good marriage story’s now days. Marriage is give and take. I was married 47 years before my wife passed away.

I married ... well ... someone who doesn't fit into any of those descriptions. B) I haven't read the Twilight series (yet) so am not sure if my hubby fits into any of the character profiles. At the risk of sounding like a floosie, I had many men on the go when I met my husband. I was very drawn to him because he was the only man that wouldn't let me have my own way all of the time and I could just let loose and be me. Fifteen years later, we are still going strong and I feel truly blessed for it. Erm …. a) none of the above. I married … well … someone who doesn’t fit into any of those descriptions.

Although I haven't read the series, and am just going off your description, I would say I played it safe and chose the nice guy. Although, I guess he's partly my Jacob too because one of the reasons I also chose him is because we share the same values and dreams. To me, those are key in a marriage.

Thinking back on it, my dad was totally fine with my choice, my mom, not so much. She resisted, big time. But after I explained things to her she came to her realization that we were right together. We have differences, but those have only helped us to grow. But he also makes me laugh and makes me happy. so yeah... that didn't make much sense... real life i'd say more team jacob... book, definitely edward. well, since my husbands name is jacob… ;)
