Hugo - I always enjoy reading your pieces, as you are a fantastic communicator with written words. This one, however, gave me some much-needed insight about why I have been happily married for almost 30 years - and also some clues about why there have been times when I have not been happy in this marriage.

Your ability to take apart and examine yourself has always been remarkable - and I especially appreciate that this piece carries no flavor of self-castigation that I can see. I wish you continued and growing contentment with yourself, in whatever relational circumstances.

Hugo,

What an analytical & courageous approach to share with your readers.

I’ll be with my husband 25 years in March ‘24. I have no clue behind how or why. All I know is, I am with him because I want to and not because I have to.
