While you are technically right, you are somewhat disingenuously ignoring the social context around the opinion and what it means in that context.
This is a bit like saying "Well, I didn't kill her your honor, I just pushed her a little bit, I don't know what happened over the edge fo that cliff..."

I agree... Plus, religious undertones in the use of "confessing". Some of us have a moral compass of our own, not subject to the bigotry of religion, and we don't need to be "confessing".

What is "a successful marriage" to begin with?

• a long lasting one?
• one that produces kids?
• one that makes the married parties happy?
• one that makes the families happy?
• one that maximizes tax collected by the state?
• one that confines people to as few sex partners as possible?
  I find myself quite unable to answer the question because I don't think we agree on what a successful mariage is.
