Renew ? Is that like a 5 yr lease option?
Let me think about that awhile...

My attitude has changed in respect to this.
In the beginning, I didn't want it at all. He didn't keep them the first time, why go through the "charade" again?
At this point in R however, I think that if we stay together, we need to do this. For me the A was a divorce without the paperwork. So, for me this would not be so much a vow renewal as a REmarriage.
I want to do it eventually. But not yet.

Ironically the WW and I renewed our vows the year previous to her A coming to light. an A that was ongoing during the time we renewed them.
It's easy to fake symbolic gestures, it's harder to fake authentic living and remorse.

Before any of this happened, I used to joke that I wouldn't want my FWH to think our vows expired. Little did I know that I was making a prediction.
Now I think he'd be afraid that I would be the one to say "what? Do you mean we reached the expiration date?"
It's never been anything that interested me. With what I've gone through, I really don't want a ceremony, symbolic or otherwise.

though he has never offerred it to me, if he did, i would say no. Make that a NO!!
I kept them, I dont see a reason for myself to renew them. There still good as far as I'm concerned.
As for him, would repeating the promise he made 27 years ago and didnt keep, be believeable to me?
Nope. Wouldnt mean a thing.
