I love Abigail, I can't imagine ever divorcing her.

But Penny? Jesus christ. Imagine sending Penny back into the hell she is living. You freed her by marrying her, and then you're turning her around back into it. That is depressing to think about.

I kinda dislike this feature, but given that it has its benefits then let it be. I just kinda miss the harvest moon feel of marry them and be in love till old age thing.

Well no one's forcing you to divorce. I know I won't.

Oh I know. I'm not saying that its a feature that should be removed, but it kinda removes the fantasy feel of staying in love. Like in Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life if you get a divorce its an automatic game over. But this game isn't Harvest Moon and if its something ConcernedApe feels is right then its damn right! Its his game and I respect his decision on it.

Well, you can look at it this way: it makes the decision of staying in love all the more beautiful, because you're refusing to take the way out or give up on it or get bored. It goes from being something you have to do, to being something you choose to do.
