Why do I have to complete a CAPTCHA?

At the same time, Jesus went out his way to spend time with and care for people who were often made to feel left out and were pushed aside by mainstream society. I'm disappointed we never got to finish writing our happily ever after, but I'll never be angry. I'll never hate you, and I'll never be dishonest about my emotions. Through being friends with married people who are parents, I saw how they sacrificially give to their kids day in and day out and at times I realized it was important for them to have a break or time out for themselves. We have only grown stronger from this- I know this because you always remind me when times are tough.

You stuck with me through terrifying medication changes; You held my hand and comforted me when my body felt like it was not my own. You watched me kill myself slowly and dealt with the repercussions of my anger when you brought it up.

You swallowed your pride and asked for help when you needed it, and it saved my life more than once. I know that sometimes, the language between us is confusing and complicated. You feel me constantly pull away from you, both emotionally and physically. You wonder what you did to cause this intense irritability I feel towards you or what you did to annoy me.

I am so sorry that I snap on you so often. You probably feel helpless at times. You see the panic attacks, the random glassy stares, the emotional unavailability, and the sleepless nights. I know you want to hold me and tell me that everything will be okay, because I feel it. I realize that predicting my behavior is probably puzzling.

You are aware of my pain, my intimacy issues, and my trauma. You are the kindest, most genuine man I know. I push and push and push, but you never leave.

I love you for that and I hate you for that all at the same time. You still chose to make me your wife through all of this suffering. Learning to be selfless through acts of kindness and simply sticking around when times are tough are small steps towards outworking selflessness. A lot of single people feel lonely. In fact, single people can feel lonely even among a group of people.

In developing a friendship with married friends, I have had the honor and privilege of building up a relationship with them and with their kids. Kids are great and they are a massive blessing, but they can also be hard work.

Through being friends with married people who are parents, I saw how they sacrificially give to their kids day in and day out and at times I realized it was important for them to have a break or time out for themselves. In seeing this, I began to offer to babysit, open up my home to my friends and their kids, learning to share my home, my time, my finances and my food.

In essence, they became family to me. One of the biggest values of having married friends and being welcomed into their lives like family is that I get to witness what married life is truly like.

The true value of having friends who are married, and spending quality time with them is witnessing the rough with the smooth and getting a true picture of what marriage is really like, away from the perfect frame of social media. I see my friends walking hand-in-hand, I see them disagreeing over seemingly minor things, I see them interacting with their kids and with each other, I witness the frustrations which may surface with each other.

I see two humans navigating life together. Sometimes they get it wrong, sometimes they get it spot on and sometimes I see them working through something with diligence and patience. Sometimes I see selfishness and sometimes I see selflessness. If marriage is, as the Bible says, giving of yourself selflessly for another. If marriage is wanting the best for another. If marriage is juggling life with maybe a couple of kids in tow, then maybe my married friends have given this single person the greatest and most important lessons I could ever learn.
