what is your idea of a happy marriage?

Question

just want to hear your opinions?

Answer 1

my idea for a happy marriagwe would be..being able to tell one another everysingle thing your most deepest darkest secretss. and having your partner understand them. Doing task togeth making life easier for one another....working things out even in rough times...being each others backbone. marriage is all about work to me if you dont put in any effort how can everything be good right? i mean this is just my opnion...but you should be a whole person and a happy person before you can do anything with anyone

Answer 2

1. 100% honesty and truthfulness. no lies, hiding, deceptions, little white lies, sneaking, avoiding, SILENCE -go for up front HONESTY all the way!
2. be best friends always and no matter what! never turn on, 'dis', ridicule, ignore, reject, humiliate, haze, etc. your very best friend - you spouse.
3. frequent, sincere expressions of love, appreciation, acceptance, forgiveness, tenderness, affection, sex, desire, joy to be with, honor, adoration, encouragement, sponteneous love, etc.
4. TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY STOP all CRITICISM & FAULT-FINDING!!!!!! NO: sarcastic jokes, ridicule, flip responses, rudeness, indifference, hostility, turn offs, impatience, one-uping, 'dissing', making 'faces', insulting 'noises', hostile jestures, arguing (unless it's really important) and drop your need to be RIGHT all the time. you can disagree and have differences but, if you are best friends and lovers, these should not destroy your relationship. work things out as friends and lovers. find compromises and joy in tough situations. be gracious and kind even if you believe that you are RIGHT. let you partner be more important than anything including your superiority.....you are EQUAL partners not competitors.
5. do the above and much more CONSISTANTLY and often - not just whenever it's convenient or gets you something. don't fall into the habit of being real nice when you want and a total a**hole when you feel like it. treat you partner and lover good ALL THE TIME and if you 'slip up' (and you will) APOLOGIZE as soon as you can and MEAN IT!! don't get into the customary pattern of "bad behavior/apology/bad behvior/apology" etc. this flip-flopping pattern will definitely ruin trust and love and will be very difficult to regain once it's gone or damaged.

finally, my idea of a happy marriage is one in which both partners are working on and giving the above and open to learning more and more about what to do and give to their wonderful marriage to make it last and get better and better.

Answer 3

i think a good marriage is one that is filled with respect compromise, and most of all love. the foundation of a happy and healthy marriage is trust and communication. An ideal marriage is one in which the partners are best friends and confidantes. Also (but not on the top of the list but it helps) a good and exciting love life. financial security and stability do help to smooth the way, but thats not all that important. In a nutshell, my idea of a happy marriage is when you and your spouse are content and secure in all areas of the marriage.

Answer 4

Well, let me tell you about mine...It lasted almost 12 years..I loved him more than life itself..He came into my life when I was ready to give up and showed me what love really was for the first time.We were soulmates and were ready to spend the rest of our earthly lives together when fate interviened and he became ill..I lost the love of my life last year on July 22....the day before his 44th birthday and four days before my 48th..Life will never be the same without him ...My heart is broken . Now when you can feel that if you lost the person you marry to death it would just shatter your whole world then you are on the path to have a happy marriage because you have to love someone more that yourself to be able to say that you are truly in love...
I am still in love with my Chuck Stein and always will be ...I know that we will be together in the next world because love is eternal..it never ends..

Answer 5

A highly interactive environment, where disagreements can be approached logically. Also when the couple loves each other enough to make efforts to make the other enjoy life more, cares enough to speak out in an acceptable way on things that matter, are mature enough to know that issues are a part of the deal - not the whole deal, and are lively enough to evolve constantly, and help their personal evolution enrich the relationship

Answer 6

A happy marriage is when you may always discuss issues in a respectful way without getting emotionally charged, and listen intently to the spouse. This is how things should start out and remain for all your blessed years together.

Answer 7

donot interfere in each others lives. I feel thats the best way for a happy marriage. More you interfere more you get to know and more questions arise
so stop nagging about everything your partner is doing

Answer 8

First of all you and your partner should feel free. Most of the time couples who get married feel cursed. If you get married to your very best Friend ans love them with all your heart happiness just seems to fall into place
