Discouragement in marriage motivates a dedicated person to keep working on their marriage. The person who stays stuck looks back and wonders if they made a mistake. Look, you didn't know what you didn't know and what you didn't know doesn't really matter anymore because you made a commitment and commitment expresses itself in the present and the future. If your marriage is struggling ask God for help and seek out someone to provide direction and support but don't look back. Keep looking forward.
