The marriage vow. Have you checked it twice?

i see nothing wrong or something to be corrected on the vow you just mentioned. its up to the couple if they want to change it or not. revise it as you see fit to your own wedding. for me its perfect that way it is.

The vow is something that will guide you to have a happy marriage life. It is actually a committment uttered during the marriage ceremony. Unfortunately, only few couples have attained this vow for the simple reason that these few offer their love unconditionally to his partner. And for the bigger part of couples who failed to fulfill the vow, the reason is that they become selfish. Some lost their trust to their partner, some were become very protective and some fall out of love. Vow can be utterred twice or thrice when they remarry again. In that case, the real meaning of its has been overlooked and has lost its real value. Sometimes, it is better not to take that vow if you are not sure you would not be able to fulfill it. Isn't it?

Well not for me... my husband did not fulfill any of his promises... He left us for another girl... In the presence of God, his family and friends... he broke his promises... "I offer you my solemn vow to be your partner in sickneaa and in health, in good times and bad, and in joy as well as sorrow" he left me at the house to be with his woman right after my caesarian operation of our second child. I promise to love you unconditionally, to support you in your goals, to honor and respect you, to laugh with you and cry with you , and to cherish you for as long as we shall both live" He let me support the kids and raise them on my own... then sometimes calling to know if we're ok. My God!

I think that marriage vow is a promise made to be kept and not a promise made to be broken. Especially since you are making it not only in front of other people but also in front of God. One should make a lot of effort to keep this vow. Nobody says it's easy. But one really should.
