The continual source of our strength was our mutual trust and respect. We wanted to avoid the mistake made by many couples of marrying for the wrong reasons, and only finding out ten, 20, or 30 years later that they were incompatible, that they hardly took the time to know each other, that they overlooked serious personality conflicts in the expectation that marriage was an automatic way to make everything work out right. That point was emphasized by the fact that Gail's parents, after 35 years of marriage, were going through a bitter and painful divorce, which had destroyed Gail and for a time had a negative effect on our budding relationship. When Gail spread the news of our wedding plans to her family she met with some resistance.
相互信任和尊重才是我們倆永不枯竭的力量源泉。 許多夫妻因為錯誤的理由結(jié)了婚，結(jié)果在10年、20年或30年后才發(fā)覺他們原來是合不來的。他們在婚前幾乎沒有花時間去互相了解，他們忽視了嚴重的性格差異，指望婚姻會自然而然地解決各種問題。我們希望避免重蹈覆轍。事實更說明了這一點：已經(jīng)結(jié)婚35年的蓋爾的父母正經(jīng)歷著一場充滿怨恨、令人痛苦的婚變，這件事給蓋爾帶來了很大打擊，并一度給我們正處于萌芽狀態(tài)的關(guān)系造成了負面影響。 當蓋爾把我們計劃舉辦婚禮的消息告訴家人時，她遇到了一些阻力。
