Was your parents marriage a long or successful one?

Divorce seems to be such a common issue in so many societies because people don’t really think about the whole situation and relationships in general. Everything is so “throw away “ and that includes marriage even after vows have been made.

My parents are from a mixed bag, my father is an Italian Roman Catholic whereas my mother who is Moldovan is Romanian Orthodox. I have been exposed to both traditions and I am more Orthodox than Catholic.

Religion can develop into a catalyst for change in a marriage relationship and it can erode the love romance of the relationship. This isn’t the case for my parents I would add!

Yes. My parents have been married almost 50 years.

And I have been married almost 20. None of us are religious.

It’s a sign we have more strength of character and compromise than most people.
