No, it had its ups and downs. It was interesting finding out all his quirks. Its not a bed of roses, it takes compromise and communication to make it last. On the plus side its nice to have a partner to relate to and share your lifes experiences, not to mention your spouse should know all of the spots to get you going.

No, but I married my best friend.\n\nI think it's pretty special to have built a very strong friendship before we had any romantic interest in each other.\n\nWe've only been married for a little under 2 years and we are raising 4 children together - 3 of mine from my previous marriage & our baby. I am sure that it is our very strong relationship that helps us get through the difficult times.

Yes sir!  I knew I was going to marry my hubby when I met him.  I had several relationships before him and never had that feeling.  After we actually started dating, I found out that he thought the same thing about me the first time he saw me.  There was just an instant attraction, I guess it was destiny (not to sound corny).  We've been married for 10 years!

Now my spouse makes me feel complete. It only took 30 years. All I can say is you have to compromise. If you fight, you can't leave , you can ignore each other until everything cools down. I watched my sibblings leave their spouses time and time again, they always went back. That was time wasted. Work things out. There are no 2 people perfectly compatable. You have to work at it. Even now , we are not even 80% compatable, but there was no way, even 10 years ago that I was gonna start over. You probably found the right person, but how would you know , now? Good luck.

Is it marriage or the wedding you are on about? If its marriage then you will know when you are ready. I was. Didn't have any doubts. I did live with my now husband before I got married. This made us realise what we were like all the time and we knew we could be together 24/7

I am not single.  June 25 will be our 29th wedding anniversary!  I was 16 and my husband was 17 when we first met.  We started dating about 6 months after that.  We were married when I was 18 and he was 19.  I am very happy.  It is hard work to keep a relationship functioning at a level where both people retain their individuality yet find fulfillment in their couple-ness.  The benefits of that hard work are amazing.  We have had plenty of difficult times and trials in all these years.  But, we sought help when it was needed and committed to learn from our mistakes and move on.  The love we have for each other and our 4 children along with our shared faith in God is a strong bond for us.

I married the man I meet online. It has been 6 years we are what you call a normal couple we laugh we argue but what I notice with this relationship is there was an understaning of each other from getting to know each other mentally before physically.

My marriage is a 10. Saturday will be our 11 year anniversary and we are BOTH happier now than we were on our wedding day! We have always made an effort for eachother in what ever it is were doing. We also talk to each other honesly and openly about anything that may be on our minds. She is my best friend as I am her's! If you can talk to each other and always make an effort for each other, your marriage will always be a 10 !!!\nGood question

I have been married for almost a year (on July 7th). \n\nI have no idea who said this quote, but it's good: "As each day passes, I love my husband more than I did yesterday and less than I will tomorrow."\n\nI think that defiantly applies as to how I love my hubby. I seems like it is always getting stronger, changing, growing. I am very lucky to have him in my life, and congrats to you on your happy marriage as well. \n-Take care-

No, my parents were divorced.  My sister has been happily married for 7 yrs, I've been happily married for 3.  You sometimes learn from others mistakes, or at least we did.

I wonder that at times with all the affairs and divorce and people killing their spouses and babies. I can't explain it but I know what it is.  I have been with the same man since i was in 8th grade. We got married right out of high school which was 9 years ago. I love my husband now more than ever. The most absolute true pure love to me though is my babies, the moment i held them for the first time, and looked into their eyes, and they looked into mine, i understood what true love was all about.
