While all this discussion is happening, the OP appears very quiet. No further portrayal of the health of their current relations, their history of incidents..no nothing. Is it just a imagined scenario?

The thread certainly did fool our bichara sojoketo. :):) That's about it.

But it's good to engage ourselves in these discussions, be it hypothetical. What are the positions of husband and wive in a relation! How much of respect for each other there exists! If somehow, they grow apart do they pursue their paths respectfully without demeaning each other! Or can act civil, still be friends while respecting the difference!

I think this is what this thread offers us to ponder upon.
