The answer

The default is the persistence of the marital bond. Thus, marriage is only dissolved by a certainty of divorce. Doubt regarding the intention of divorce when uttering an equivocal term does not effect it. Therefore, your wife remains under your marital bond, and you should disregard these [obsessive] whispers.
