An interesting question, and one I've thought of a lot lately . . .
My wife became a JW after we married, probably because of a lot of stressful things in our lives that have since been worked out, but she's become 100% JW.
Are there problems in our marriage? Definitely. Some days I wish I could just leave and get on with a normal life. But other days are good. Can we talk about everything? Yes, but we often have fights when I don't agree with her black and white view of the world. Just the other day she tried to explain to me how I worship Christmas . . . I then got pissed and told her we could never have children because she wouldn't allow them to understand my views . . . You can imagine the rest.
Anyway, to tell the truth, I don't know how things will work out. I figure she'll decide whether she wants marriage or JWness. I'll give her some time, and I figure that my belief in marriage (nothing to do with religion) means that much.
Things aren't easy, but they can work. I offer her support, and she gives me some support. Sometimes it's one-sided, but she is brainwashed now. I hope she realizes, but if she doesn't there is no long term future, I'm afraid. Why would she want to be with me, anyway? I can never be a good husband!
The end of the matter? One can have a good marriage and relationship, but it takes extra work and some tough decisions. I love my wife, but I hate her religion. Anyway, these things do end, and decisions have to be made. She waits for me to see the Truth, and I wait for her to see the Untruth. Someday, we'll either give up or one of us will turn (and I can promise you - it won't be me).
I feel great now!
