My perspective is constantly changing, but a friend explained relationships (esp. marriage) in a way that made sense...
Spiritually - wedding ceremonies, certificates & honeymoons don't mean much.
What is most meaningful spiritually, is intent, feeling & resonating/connecting.
When 2 people get married, spiritually, it's mostly about intent & maybe superficial connection ("infatuation") but no real "spiritual union" yet.
As they learn to live together, through good & bad times, there may be some character development that they help each other with...
But regarding "spiritual relationships" - connection or "relating" is most significant.
Nobody "owns" anybody, although most marriage seems to usually influence belief otherwise.
Spiritually, it's all about connection... & what is a little conflicting to me - is how we each change, so it's likely we'll relate or connect with different people throughout our lives.
So, we may relate with someone who we're not married to.
Yet, we want to do what is best for all (LOVE)... which is often keeping a family together by staying "loyal" at least in action.
