It really is though. Love doesn't come without sacrifices or work. The best relationships can usually work through anything if two parties are willing to work at it.

I don't think reconciling with my husband makes me his bitch. Nor does it make him mine, since it did go both ways. Getting back together, learning to forgive each other & making it work was the best thing for us. I'm glad we didn't give up in the end. Our marriage is much different now, from the way it was. We've both learned a lot about not only each other, but of ourselves. It started as an awful experience...but if what my marriage is today is what I get after it all. I'll take it! (:
