It's real simple....(I know this is all defined in the Bible,..) ..and, i could go on about how we are "so much in love with each other!", or, just say, that " the "Relationship I have with the Lord, defines my relationship with my wife, and hers with me.." If the "Love and Growth leval, isn't that strong between a person and the Lord?"well, probably won't be with them and the one they love either...(christiandom), so, it's like i told my wife..and she understood from the "get go!" You have a relationship with the Lord,"- "I Have a relationship with the Lord," these two facts are the most important things in our lives...by loving God, and growing in our relationship with Him, our hearts will manefest this to each other through our own relationship...we tell others..Jesus is your answer...God is love..but fail to read into this for ourselves...the Father is the best "Parent" i know of...so, "How can any one person improve on them?" (not me...!) "Peace!"

Does a significant other mean your partner or your spouse? You have to be clear on that because in married couples, commitment is a huge piece of the marriage pie and if that's not met - then the marriage is a sham. As for partner - commitment is maybe almost the same level if both of you are single. But I believe that if you really loved and cared about someone - married or not - that level of commitment depends on each other's character and value they place in their relationship.

Sexual fidelity is just the beginning.
Commitment meant that I didn't complain about my husband to my friends or laugh about his quirks. I didn't roll my eyes at his jokes. When he was the deciding factor in our buying a house that was foreclosed on a couple of years later, I didn't tell that to our family or friends or children. He didn't complain about me to his friends, either, and had only good things or nothing to say about my cooking, parenting or style. We came first. The angriest I ever heard my husband speak to another person was when he told his secretary, who'd spaced off that I'd called with a flat tire, that she was always to put my calls through, whatever he was doing.
We assumed the other had our best interests at heart and would never do anything deliberately to upset or hurt us because that was our commitment.
Commitment isn't blind to faults and failings; it just takes the position that some things aren't important and don't need to be hashed out. Other things are and our love deserves the time and effort it takes to hash them out and fix them.

I'm committed to him...meaning, I don't look at (ok well I can look), flirt with, touch or have sex with anyone else. He is my confidant, my lover and my friend all wrapped up in one and he in turn respects me the same way. At this time, the only boundry is I think I love him more than he loves me but that happens sometimes and you have to see if you can work through it or move on

there is no more commitment now....we are separated now. yet when we were together it was alot of sharing in responsibilities, from house work to paying the bills. communication was always very important.

well, lets put it this way.... for the last 2-3 months, my girlfriend and i have not been allowed to see each other or communicate in any way, but we both find it not only possible, but easy, to remain faithful. i love her more than i ever thought possible.

there isn't one anymore. she cheated. the last thing i did with her was throw eggs at the two of them. it was a lot of fun too. so when you walk in on them doing the nasty. remember the eggs. it makes you feel so good.
