"Only religion forces people to stay in a marriage. People grow. People, as years go by, change. People may just get sick of the same O same O. It doesn’t mean there’s no longer love n affection it’s just maybe not the love and affection felt after 27 yrs."

"This marriage stuff is really not easy even these two with all what they've achieved still split. I guess it just means they are humans just like us after all."
