I also think blaming it on our extended lifespans is selfish - craving new experiences doesn't mean you should go out and find them. <br /><br />Not to say my marriage is perfect - far from it at times - but my outlook has always been that I made this choice and I continue to choose to honor that choice every dayAdriannehttp://yeahimadeit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5616772853861421635.post-36060747087768141812014-03-26T20:45:23.450-05:002014-03-26T20:45:23.450-05:00As a PR move, it's creative.

And yes, kids definitely complicates it. Part of me thinks being married is a moot point - if you have kids or not is when shit really starts to matter. Either way, I can't see you being selfish or angry or any of those things you mention - you're too sweet and I heart you Miss Jesse Coulter.Greetings from Texas!https://www.blogger.com/profile/05843074051693386644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5616772853861421635.post-33341237985242108072014-03-26T14:19:03.678-05:002014-03-26T14:19:03.678-05:00=) =) Greetings from Texas!https://www.blogger.com/profile/05843074051693386644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5616772853861421635.post-22330716800931857482014-03-26T14:16:21.249-05:002014-03-26T14:16:21.249-05:00#1 - GOOP.com - Not my first choice for a domain
#...#1 - GOOP.com - Not my first choice for a domain<br />#2 - Very interesting article, and it did make me use my brain for just a bit ; ) I heard many years ago from an older couple, that marriage brings out your worst. God can use your spouse to show you the absolute worst part of you, selfishness, anger, judgement, etc. But then it's our opportunity to work on those things they bring out. It rings so true to me. Who better to point out how selfish I'm being than my husband, or help me to realize a different way to face a situation than with negativity. I can't began to articulate my thought process on this, but I do believe we can love multiple people and have multiple relationships, but when you bring kids in to the mix it complicates it. I would hope that as my relationship grows and faces ups and downs, that I would grow myself and become a better version of myself.

I remem...Haha… Megan this was so on my radar today. I remember seeing an interview she did years ago where the host made some crack about how tough it must be to be married to a rocker like Chris Martin and she just rolled her eyes and said "you have no idea." I was like "uh oh spaghettios." It's over. That was like four years ago. Then this. She's getting lots of flack for being so freaking ahead of the PR curve, but more power to her. Absolutely genius move, as was said above, to control the announcement entirely but publishing her own version of it in her own words in her own media outlet. This is why every person on earth needs a blog. I have half the time no idea what to do with mine, but if I want to make an announcement as hot as this, at least I'll have the place to do it.

Though I know I wouldn't trade him for the world maybe Brad Pitt but that's a different story I couldn't live without him. And I always let him know he would probably never ever find some one else that could ever put up with him. A little back story, he is awesome at embarrassing me everywhere, ex. he enjoys dancing and singing down the aisles at the food store or anywhere he wants me to hurry up. <br /><br />I am so glad I found your blog you are making this adoption process a tad easier for me to handle!
