I think what's wrong is the approach that a partner in life is some sort of trophy to be had. That's why his wife left him - she wasn't really in it for him, she was playing her role.

To succeed in love, find the one that loves you at your worst. That's my two cents.

Absolutely.

Been through that BTW, so I know how that works.

Doesn't the Judeo-Christian wedding ceremony include the vow (paraphrasing) that people stick together in good and bad times?

Finding out that your worth as a mate to someone depends on the current bank balance is one HELL of a rude awakening. Great learning experience though, I would not have it any other way.
