I know most people are going to tell me that if I'm asking this question, then he's not "the one" But, hear me out.
I'm very unsure of what makes a happy marriage. My parents were married for 22 years, but did not get along. They screamed, they yelled and my father (a good person just w/ a bad problem) drank a lot. Growing up, my parents never hugged and kissed, and they never sat around telling each other how much they loved each other. I don't even know the story of how my parents got engaged or anything. I know how they met, but that's it. They never divorced, because they could not afford it. Both my parents worked, but they still needed dual incomes.
Finally, 2 years ago, they divorced. It was a nightmare and not the least bit amicable.
Now, I'm 23 years old and in a serious relationship. I do love him and would love to get married, but I'm scared. What if he's all wrong for me. I do not want to be like my parents.
