Love is Eternal! 

We all have choices that can change us for better or worse, depending on how we decide. Jan had three opportunities to confirm our love for each other, and each time she selected me!

I have only written briefly about the first one and nothing about the second one. Love is Forever is the post about the most challenging period in our relationship.

I aim to tell the story of Jan’s three commitments to me thoroughly.

Jan’s Three Commitments

• The first was the day we met. Many of her friends and family opposed our relationship. She could have chosen not to fall in love with me.
• When we met, Jan Clears the Decks was the first post to discuss Jan’s choices.
• The second began when we decided to marry and continued until the day we married. Our wedding was opposed by many of her friends and her family.  
• The last was this problematic situation early in our marriage which is the story in this post. I have drafted an alternate version of this traumatic period.

However, she confirmed I was the one for her each time she had the opportunity. I will forever be grateful that, given a choice, she decided to love me. 

Trigger Warning

Some readers have expressed that this story appears to speak ill of those no longer with us. As the author and Jan’s husband, that is not my intent. We are all human, and sometimes our choices are not as clear-cut as we might like. If you need clarification on reading this post, that would be great. If you do and you have concerns, please reach out to me, and I am more than happy to discuss them with you. 

As William Shakespeare wrote, All’s Well That Ends Well! If you read the full story, I am confident that you will find that this one ends well and all is well between Jan and me.
