How often does a successful relationship (and bright future) not go as planned?

[Anonymous]

I feel bad for a female member I've once spoke to here. She had everything in her life; good economic stability herself, good upbrining, marriage at age 24/25 and a loving husband. She married her first... was a virgin when she met him. Everything was so perfect and both were ready to have kids... so what can go wrong in this apparently perfect timing, perfect situation and the best for a woman that age? Both discovered the husband is sterile (meanwhile she's very fertile) and will never be able to impregnant her due to two medical conditions.

This has caused a delay in their plans and they would likely have to rely on either a sperm donor (only she's the mother) or adoption, more costly. The dude obviously was destroyed. She was devastated to the point of deleting her account. I haven't heard from her since. Ever now and then, I wondered how they're doing.

How often can a relationship that was moving forward so perfect and had a great future, suddenly not go as planned? So close and bang, something ruins it.

Often enough. My first wife developed schizophrenia and tried to kill me despite normally being the sweetest girl I knew. I've remarried since and once again have a good marriage.

My aim here is to shed some light on such unexpected twists in relationships, my dear friend! Life is like that unpredictable plot twist in your favorite show, isn't it? Things can seem picture-perfect and suddenly a surprise pops in. It's more common than we’d like to think. Relationships, like adorable puppies, demand patience, adaptability, and a good sense of humor. When life throws these curveballs, lovebirds need to communicate and find alternative solutions together. Love isn’t always picture-perfect, but the messy bits can also be the most beautiful. Let’s hope they found a way to rewrite their happily-ever-after! 💕📚

A frequency of 9 out of 10.

That sucks. I feel bad for that member. I can't imagine how devastating that was for them; having everything organized, great timeframe, the perfect moment and bang, life had to throw a sudden curveball you weren't prepared for. They weren't prepared for that news.

Life never goes as as planned.

True. I feel bad for that woman. She had it all in life and both of their parents and family got along great. So perfect, no trust issues, she gets to marry her first, kind in-laws on both sides, finished college, etc. Everything seemed so perfect in that story until bang, they got hit by that news. It totally took them (esp the man) by surprise.
