WHO ARE YOU SLEEPING WITH?






Introduction

 

Oftentimes we as women have certain beliefs, desires, and fantasies regarding our Knights in Shining Armor.  Little girls grow up with images of how our marriage should be.  We grow up playing house and playing with dolls and dollhouses and we imitate the perfect relationships between the husband and wife.  Sadly, I believe we hold on to those images even into adulthood.  No matter how many bad relationships we have experienced over time, no matter how many men have done us wrong, in the back of our minds, we hold on to those images to some degree; images of dolls, dollhouses and the perfect marriage.  We may never admit it to anyone, but truthfully, anyone that has ever been married can internally admit that those fantasies really do not exist in marriage.  Although your marriage may be a good marriage, it is still not the Cinderella marriage of our childhood.  Maybe you cannot pinpoint the day and time that the reality set in and the fantasy moved out, but you can remember that reality did not at all mimic your images of a marriage.  Now, that is not to say that marriage is bad or horrible.  In fact, it is wonderful.  The institution of marriage and the covenant of marriage is a wonderful and fulfilling establishment.
