About This Quote
Life is short. Smile while you still have teeth. Life is short. Expect that, and you can take your time to enjoy it.
Numerous people contact me with questions about their relationships. They say, “I’ve been dating this person for three years now, and we’re engaged to be married. We’ve been living together for two years now, and I love him so much.
But the last year has been very hard on us both—we’ve had some health problems, and he’s not handling it well at all. We know that our relationship won’t last forever—in fact, we know that our love for each other probably won’t last forever—but I don’t want to end up alone after I’m gone. I come from a large family unit, and I don’t want to leave them all hanging with no support at all.
So what should I do? How can I make sure that he stays committed to me when I can’t be there anymore? What kind of commitment should we make? Should we get married now or wait until he gets his life together? Should we have children now or wait until he gets his life together? You have made me realize that my situation is very much different than most others in the world today, but what would you recommend? Should I just consider marriage to be a step in the right direction without any real commitment? And how much time should I give him before deciding to walk away? It feels like I have to do something, but what is the best thing for me and my family?"
