That's noble and admirable of you. Thing is these days many people are shallow and don't put too much emphasis on love when they choose who to be with. Or they aren't loving people for the right reasons. They may become infatuated which is ok. But that is not real love. The bible tells husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the church. What did Christ do for the church? He died for the church. The bible doesn't specifically say for women to love their husbands it does say to repsect them, but that goes without saying. What man does not want their wife to love them too? Not too many. So I think that same verse applies to the ladies also, because if you wont die for someone you may love them a little bit. But ask yourself. Do you love them enough to marry them if you wont even die for them? to me that is the question someone needs to ask theirself before they choose to marry a person. Now, money can disappear, looks fade, and anything can happen. A mans wife can get burnt up in a fire. A man can go to prison and lose all his money. So if you love someone for how much money they have, or what they look like, then its for the wrong reasons. What are you going to do when they lose their money? What are you going to do when your wife gets elderly? Divorce? So its important that true love is in the equation, and I can tell you really loved your husband because you stuck with him thru his problems which is good. And I think more men and women need to have that attitude. Especially in America where people are insecure, and think they need a trophy wife or a famous baller. So they sacrifice true love for a fake worldly type of love, instead of the type of love that the bible tells us to have.
