A snippet from Episode 1: Therapy in Retrograde 

Gabriel

On the day you get married and utter your vows, there are five sweet words that sound far less harmless in retrospect than they actually are: For better or for worse.

Personally, I think we need to come together once and for all and add a contractual line after that phrase. 

“For better or for worse, unless you commit the following dealbreakers, subject to certain conditions.” Namely, if ‘XYZ’ happens, you can immediately desert your wife. 

Do not pass go. Do not second guess. Do not pay any attorneys’ fees.

You’re free, and it’s all your wife’s fault.

If she starts doing anything in the secondary category of ‘WTF,’ changing her entire personality for no reason, or saying things like, “We need to talk again. I feel like you’re starting to understand me, but you’re not getting me, and this is something you need to work on…for us…” brace yourself…

Or, if she dares to break open the nuclear destruction case to ask, “Have you ever wondered what the happy people in open relationships know that we don’t? Is monogamy really all it’s cracked up to be?”

At that very moment, you can take off your wedding ring, walk away, and never look back. You’ll receive the divorce papers in the mail, and she’ll be forced to sign them due to breaking the contract.

No harm, no foul.

Unfortunately though, if you meant even half the words in your vows and love this woman down to her marrow—down to every last gram of her soul, it’s excruciating to think about an escape route. 

There’s no exit ramp from ‘forever,’ and no matter how far your marriage speeds down the ‘for worse’ lane, your heart is strapped tightly to the seat. 

Wrecks, wrong turns, rough weather, and all…
