Looking for serious replies here. I’ve thought about this a few times, and it’s fucked up basically any which way I look at it. I think about a scenario in which I’m dating someone in a happy, healthy relationship and some unexpected accident occurs which causes them to lose control of: their arms, their legs, their hearing, their vision, their mind, or their memory in some significant way. I genuinely don’t know how I would respond to this, and if I’m honest, I’m a little afraid of the non-zero possibility of something like this happening. My thinking is that I would highly consider leaving if I wasn’t married and it wasn’t something I was aware of when getting into the relationship, as it wouldn’t be something I’ve committed to “in sickness and in health”. Though, I imagine there are those who would leave in spite of marriage. To stay or leave? Would I feel fine or horrible/guilty if I left? How does one handle this kind of a heavy decision in life that will easily affect you for years or even decades? I’m still pretty young in the grand scheme of things and I’m hoping either experience or aged wisdom will provide some much needed insight. submitted by /u/Skullruss
