re: No, the problem is not my not understanding commitment

"I can tell you one thing, once you've decided that you're not "sure" if you can carry through on something, something that requires only will, not physical strength or endurance, or that you might not "feel" like it when the time comes, you're already on the way to losing."

Sorry, but we have different learned life lessons. This is contrary to everything I have learned about surviving adversity- which is quite considerable.

"I honestly don't understand you. Nobody would be shooting at me. Nobody would be attacking me. All I would need to do is stand by my wife. What would be stopping me?"

And I don't understand you. You make it sound as if it would be easy. This further re-inforces my notion that you have no idea what that life would be like, and thus have no idea how you would react after 7 years.

I guess we are on different wave-lengths.
