Thank you all for responding with your truths!

I want to remind everyone, that this is an OPINION piece and it's a piece that I try to be well balanced on. I made sure to give an example from my own life as well as others. The bottom line is we are to treat each other the way we want to be treated.

I know we are living in a world that does NOT honor marriage or see it as archaic, so it's a sort of "anything goes" type of mentality that I see going on and I am here to question it and give an opinion. Period.
