I got married at 22 and remained in an abusive marriage for 10 years. I made up my mind that that was never going to happen to me again. I made a brave step to walk out in a society when you didn't walk out of an abusive marriage. It was mental and physical abuse.
I've never really been very good at marriage. It's one of my failures. I've tried my best but I do realise the common denominator is me it's something I'm doing.
A good businessman never makes a contract unless he's sure he can carry it through yet every fool on earth is perfectly willing to sign a marriage contract without considering whether he can live up to it or not.
All I know is it destroyed my family it destroyed my marriage to Sylvester and I will never get over it.
I've never understood what the upside of marriage would be for me personally.
I have a lady she's a great lady. I love her a lot she loves me. We're on the same page. Whenever that day happens when we're not on the same page we'll move forward with it. We're interested in having our lives be our lives right now and not a third person's vis-a-vis marriage and whatever that means.
I routinely never discuss my marriage. It's nice to have things in my life that are totally mine.
It was not a healthy marriage for long time. It was never about another man it was about what my and Dennis's relationship could not sustain.
You never go into a marriage expecting to get divorced. You go into a marriage expecting it's going to last forever and you have a lot of ways you dream about the future. You have all these expectations and then you have to adjust those expectations and it can be a very unnerving confusing time.
I've never quite understood why people marry marriage is just an invented structure.
