What is the difference between saying, "His / Her marriage" and "our marriage" ? When talking about the same two people, a husband and wife.
I know this is kind of a difficult question. Short version: My husband and I are doing just fine ... a little while ago, however, he cheated on me. (Simply put) I was having a hard time dealing with the situation. In talking with friends, family members and my husband, we decided the best thing to do, (at this point) is to see a marriage counselor. I do not want to end the marriage, or even split.. neither does he.
A friend suggested that maybe "his marriage" needs some work, but "my marriage" is working out just fine. I questioned him as to what he meant, but he had to leave before he could go into a full explanation. (Internet buddy) Does anyone understand this?
In other words, how do you perceive marriage as being His / Hers / Ours?
