Our spouses must own their problems. They must bear the consequences of their own choices. They must suffer the pain of their own illnesses. This is not our burden to bear. I stayed with my wife through a time where I knew full well that I hated the relationship, needed more for myself, and saw no hope. Yet I thought she would die if I left her, and that her death would be my responsibility.

When Love Can't Cure - Nothing had prepared him for a woman like Michelle
http://cms.psychologytoday.com/articles/pto-20030902-000005.html
Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
To cast me off discourteously.
For I have loved you well and long,
Delighting in your company.
Your vows you've broken, like my heart,
Oh, why did you so enrapture me?
Now I remain in a world apart
But my heart remains in captivity.
Greensleeves was all my joy
Greensleeves was my delight,
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,
And who but my lady greensleeves.
Ballad "Greensleeves"
Traditional English c.1580 Folksong
It is widely acknowledged that Lady Green Sleeves was at the very least a promiscuous young woman and perhaps a prostitute. At this time, the word "green" also had sexual connotations, most notably in the phrase "a green gown", a reference to the way that grass stains might be seen on a ladies' dress if she had made love outside.
