A little drunk, a little philosophical.

Do you think your marriage is a choice or an inevitability?

I mean, I look at MH, and I know that we're together because we choose to be, but a little piece of me thinks it's because we're supposed to be. I never believed in fate before I met him, but now I'm not so sure. It could be.

So what's your take? Are you with your SO because of fate or free will?

Free will.

Hmmm...that's tough. I think it's fate. I'm a big believer in things happening for a reason. I believe there is some grand plan for my life and nothing is by accident.

Of course, I tell myself that so when things are tough it doesn't seem so bad...

I can't imagine being married to anyone besides my husband (well, besides Tom Brady ), but it's stlll a choice. So,free will.

Haha! Tom Brady!

I think it is a little of both. I feel like we are meant to be together, but I guess we could have chosen not to be.

I'm not so sure it's fate, but I do believe that there is one person out there for everybody.. who that person is is not set in stone.
The "perfect" person for me ten years ago may not be the "perfect" person for me now.

I was just really lucky that the perfect person for me now evolved with me and is still perfect for me.

What if we think it's a choice, but really it was destiny? Like, maybe you did choose your H, but were gently guided in his direction by God or destiny or something? Is it still free will?

[pilife]

being guided towards that individual doesn't force you to stay with him.

That's true, Pi...I wasn't thinking that way. I took the original question as "was it or choice or fate that brought you to your DH".

[pilife]

Oh, yeah, sorry - I've definitely pondered the thought myself.. especially considering how D & I "met."

He called and interrupted a dinner a friend and I were having. I thought it was rude that she was spending so long on the phone with whoever this person was.. so I took her phone and started talking to him - telling him that I was going to hang up on him because he interrupted our dinner.. I got his phone number and texted him the next day..

Free will. If a few cards played out a little different in both of our lives, we never would have met. You can call that fate. But I chose to not move after graduation to pursue a relationship with him. That's free will.
