    Commitment is in the mind and heart,it shows in your actions and decisions and the way you communicate. Marriage is just a ceremony,imo...not to get into a debate about it,just expressing my own thoughts.

    OP, If you have to ask a bunch of strangers online if you should trust your spouse the question should answer itself.


    Best of luck with everything.

    Marriage is a practice which was largely promulgated not for the sake of commitment, but, historically, for purposes such as making treaties and ensuring that wealth and affluence remained within certain circles. I can't be sold on the whole bit about how marriage is such a matter of sanctity and something sacred. Just my $.02 worth. If you're committed to each other, you're committed to each other - you don't need anyone else's approval of how you manifest your commitment for that to hold true. If you feel marriage is the ultimate manifestation of your commitment to each other, then, by all means, get married. But don't spin in as this big be-all, end-all.... I've watched too many kids get hitched much too young - whether by their own naivety or by external pressure - just for it all to end up going to ####. The ring didn't do anything for them. The ring doesn't give you some magical ability to stay true when you couldn't before - that Ashley Madison website and the success its had speaks volumes to this.

    I think this depends on how you look at it... I took it as:
    girlfriend may not be spouse, but there is still some sort of "vow" for lack of a better word. If you can't trust her as a girlfriend, how on God's green earth can you trust her as a wife..

    I would have to know the girl's parents to better understand why she is this way. If her father was not loving to her mother, the way she behaves may be based on what she learned. People can change if the environment they are in changes. She may expect a man to never be faithful to her, so she remains that way, because her father was that way as well.

    Wow, the op basically tells you that he's insecure and overly possessive and no one calls him on it? Especially the women?

    He admitted he is insecure in his first post.

    You're right and I stand corrected. But criticizing the woman isn't right. He's the one with the problem, not her.

    Did you miss the part about her sleeping with a married man?
