Our story so far was a bit of a disappointment but a message to not give up

Tis a sad ending to what could have been! We don't blame the one who stayed, in instances where no abuse occurred. The fault is clearly on the one who ran off. May God discipline her and bring her to the place where she belongs.

Exactly. Very well put.

It flies in the face of traditional Christianity, but I believe Jesus was also married to fulfill all righteousness and set the perfect example.

I also believe that Jesus was married to more than one as it was common practice in those days that a woman did not follow a man around or come to him, unless she was married to him. Jesus as per record had at least three women we know of who constantly followed Him around, came to Him, and were as loyal as loyal can be. Their actions, according to the customs of that day absolutely speak of marriage. The parable of the 10 virgins itself speaks of how common that marriage custom was at the time. I find it sad that most of Christianity doesn’t fully understand Christ. There was never at any point anything dirty or impure about marriage as it is God‘s greatest gift and tender mercy to all of us. So why wouldn’t the Son of God be married? I strongly believe He was.

I am quite skeptical of the notion that Jesus was married at all, but I also could see why someone like Luke, if Jesus did have more than one wife, would not have wanted to report such a thing to Theo.

You are consistent with your LDS theology. There is no mention of wives and children attached to Jesus. So with the lack of info we can make up scripture(or not).

Correct. The Christology of the LDS is not the same as the rest of orthodox Christian christology.
