I promise to accept you the way you are...I fell in love with you for the qualities, abilities, and outlook on life that you have, and I won't try to reshape you in a different image.
I promise to respect you as a person with your own interests, desires, and needs, and to realize that those are sometimes different--but no less important--than my own.
I promise to share with you...my time, my close attention, and to bring joy and strength and imagination to our marriage.
I promise to keep myself open to you...to let you see through the window of my personal world into my innermost fears and feelings, secrets and dreams.
I promise to grow along with you...to be willing to face change as we both change in order to keep our marriage alive and exciting.
And finally, I promise to love you in good times and in bad, with all I have to give and all I feel inside...in the only way I know how...completely and forever.
