Re: marriage unequal in intelligence
Hi Honeybear. Sorry to catch your post late. Just got back from our marriage anniversary.
I think it is a case of your inner sight. You are seeing the shortcomings in him and are dwelling on them. You have been used to an intellectual environment perhaps and are adjusting to a different world.
I think you ought to dwell on his good points more and see the glass half full and not half empty. You are his wife and maybe one of your contributions is using your gifts of a sharp mind in the marriage. He obviously needs it at times. Judging our spouse does not help the marriage. Acceptance of them for who they are goes a long way to a happy marriage. Love covers a multitude of sins as the scripture says.
I think you have a lot of work to do in adjusting. Our brains are not the be all and end of things. Maybe you lean more towards the mind. Other can be all feelings or all strong will or even make a God of the physical. These are all parts of our soul and body but should all be subject to the spirit to be balanced. This is true wisdom.
