Question
I have recited in Hebrew to my husband on our wedding day the words that Ruth spoke to Neomi (Do not urge me to leave you....Thus may G_d do to me, and so may He do more, if anything but death separates me from you)
We are divorced now.
I am afraid that these words are considered to be a vow. What shall I do?
Answer
These words are not a vow.
May Hashem help you find your Shidduch and bestow happiness to your life.
