I told him it would take a while to take in.
It is rather enormous isn't it?
Especially since those are exactly the terms I used to describe the inequality in the relationship. That I would consider him in making life decisions, but he'd never give me a second thought. That was sort of a lynchpin assumption.
Now, mind you, I don't actually believe it was only me. That would be incredibly arrogant. But I do actually believe that he thought of me, and his commitment and responsibility to me.
No, it hasn't sunk in.
I feel blessed though. I don't care or trust lightly. I feel blessed that it is well placed and at least partially reciprocated.
And I pray daily for the strength of his marriage. Because it's his wife who has ties to this community. :)
