Agree with you. That's why it's a good idea to spend a couple years getting to know the person you're dating before getting married. Nitty, gritty problems don't get better, usually. They get more pronounced.
I wrote this for another thread - but I'm restating it here. I won't respond further. Read this and take it to your heart, brain or THOUGHTS, please.
"We do need to change our way of thinking. WE all need to start thinking PEACE thoughts.
When the majority of people in the world are criticizing all the bad things going on, the FOCUS is on the BAD. ALL the attention is going to 'creating' more BAD. Yes, we need to be aware of what is going on through the media BUT we don't need to inundate ourselves with it all through the day. IT is our THOUGHTS that are the CAUSE. The media is the EFFECT. So, we need not blame the media. When we constantly hash and rehash problems WE are keeping it all alive. The more that we invite this and persuade others to feel angry and resentful and revengeful we are making it worse. WE NEED TO LIVE IN THE SOLUTION. "
Yesterday was a very difficult day for me, but when I read though all these gratitude lists it brought me back to a much, much better footing. I really do feel better now.
I am grateful for all the things said and described here.

"If it was your home... and lets say-- a priest, a buddhist monk, a Rabbi, a High Priestess (Wiccan spiritual leader), and a preacher were in your home and each wanted to say a prayer in your behalf, would you refuse any of them?? Or any other religious leader I can't think of at the moment??" Some people are just not as evolved spirtually as others. But, they are in the perfect state of existence at this moment of time for them. I can't come up with an answer that wouldn't cause discord for either of them unless they were both willing to have a period of time for a silent prayer.
To not allow prayer seems like promoting separateness. It would be the antithesis of the action of prayer.
Imagine... Suppose your universe and time is a circle, bending back on itself. Your reality reduces itself to one manifestation, one obsession, with a constant desire to replicate itself within you. Furthermore your universe is composed of an indefinite, perhaps infinite number of hexagonal galleries. From any hexagon one can see the floors above and below - one after another, endlessly. Finally, imagine that the driving force of your world and life is Zahir. -----------------------------------------------------------------
Why would you turn that around on yourself and ask if you're a bad person?
Getting out and away from an alchoholic and a drug abuser seems smart enough to me. I'd RUN too. 's FINE to make those kinds of judgments and to be picky.
Then... (something tells me you knew this all along)
