The Harmonic Relationship, Is It Really Attainable?

Does this imply that listening to audio on the Internet of another's speech without permission is in violation of one's person space? Where do we define the borders? With the Internet so open, there seem to be many dangers.

I waited until I was 30 to marry. My husband was 10 years older with two children from a previous marriage. I know there was a degree of turmoil and fighting between him and his exwife. He never spoke a kind word about her ever. My marriage in the beginning was a fairytale we got custody of his two children, had a beautiful daughter, bought homes, renovated, built an office together, traveled and the list gets longer. We had goals dreams and many great hopes together. Then came the alcohol, verbal, mental, emotional & occasionally the physical abuse. His extramarital affairs were hidden well, always blaming me for all that went wrong. Acusing me constantly of our debts his drinking & lack of sexual fulfillment. I wanted to stay married for our children, our committment & all we had built together. After a violent physical incident I filed for divorce. I am now the black sheep of our community for all the horrible things he has told everyone about me. He blames me still is full of anger

I am about to embark on my second marriage, and very sure and feel very blessed to have have found my soul mate. The funny thing is that I wasn't looking for a marriage partner, but the man I am marrying waited five years for me. We respect each others need for aloneness, and also give each other the support and caring afforded within a relationship. The most important thing about our relationship, especially at our age (in our fifties) is our deep friendship, and respect. I truly believe that two individuals make one whole being, to travel through the experience of life. This whole being can do much to enhance the lives of the people of our world and bring unity and soundness to the world.

dear toronto,
i'm sorry you've tried twice and neither time has worked but the fact that you have tried indicates that inside, you wanted to find the right person. deep inside, i'm sure you still hope to find that person G-d made - just for you. maybe you'll meet that person w/out trying, randomly; however, things of value are not generally obtained through not trying. i hope the difficult times you've had from the two husbands don't persuade you to stop looking. i hope that you restart the search. i hope you find your true other half; he is probably also looking for you. you both will lose out if just one of you decides to stop the search. so please, if not for your sake, for his, search, keep looking, find him and live the life you've longed for.

I personally (after two marriages, ha ha! :) ) prefer to have lovers, not husbands anymore, thanks! There is nothing more depressing in life than to be stuck with a person who now bores and annoys you to death. Life is too short to waste, ladies! Get all out of it! ;)
