adult men, please (age 25+)
Do you think you could be happy for the rest of your life with the same woman? Do you think you would tire of being in that relationship for so many years?

i would hope so. especially since I would be the one to ask if she wants to spend the rest of her life with me (in such a situation, i think i come out of it the winner in the bargin). i have heard that some things can be repetetive and cand be tireing... but that will happen no matter who you are with. a relationship isn't something you enjoy and let happen... to make it work, you have to WORK for it. marriage is an extention of that, it's a promise to continue to work with your partner in trying to be happy because you truly believe that person is 'right' for you.
i have considered it on two occations but it didn't pan out. the last time this happened it was someone i lived with and had begun to consider the possibility of asking...and then she moved away. (and by that i don't mean "she moved to another city" moved away. it was more like "she is now living on the other side of the friggin world" moved away.) we stayed in touch and we tried to make it work out (trust me... we tried for a year... and the time diff did not help[16hrs] so staying in touch without seeing eachother or hearing eachother was harsh) but the distance and problems we encountered in keeping our feelings the same proved too great.
if i could find a girl who complimented me and was closer... then i would again consider it. as much fun as it is to be single, make your own schedule, do what you want when you want, and be outrageous... it is really nice when you can share all that with someone... and it's always nice when you have someone to come home to, someone who you can be completely yourself with. until that day comes (and i find myself in that happy situation... hopefully not caused by her running me over or some other wacky meeting [don't ask, long story, and really weird]) i'll continue to enjoy myself as the bachelor i am.
so would i be happy living the rest of my life with the same woman? yes, if it was the right woman (no, not movie stars... although i wouldn't say no to that! :P just a cute gal... one who suits me, and one who can tolerate me and my idiocyncricities :P)
will i ever find such a woman?
as the priest said to the princess, "i live in hope!"

I'm 46 now and out of a 20 year marriage for about 3 years. Looking back at that age I'm not sure that I gave it much thought. At this point in my life I know what I like and if I found a person who shared my interests but also allowed for my space I'm sure that I could be happy with that person for the rest of my life.

Nope, I love married life and spending my time with the one I love. I was married for 12 years and unhappy for the last 8 years. But I never cheated. I am now getting ready to get married again and I hope this one is for real. People just change over the years. More so if your young and get married. But no, nothing scary about getting married and being with the same person for the rest of my life. I thought that was what marriage was all about?
forgot. I am 32 with 2 kids

Sometimes yes , sometimes no , yes because wow she really pissing me off at the moment , no because i love her , keep the time between two people fun don't dwell on bad times everyone has them, make sure though the person you are with you can stand being around together for a chat because when you get older you won't be able to have a quickie in the sack without breaking a hip or something LOL

There is something really special about a long-term relationship. The ability to really show who you are and work to help each other achieve your dreams is not something that can usually be found in short-term relationships. Of course finding the right person to be with is the truly hard part.

Most men are not afraid of true committment like a godly blessed marriage, what they are afraid of is somepersons perception of what marriage is that is constantly changing from week to week, yea be very scared....., otherwise pimp the trick.....

any relationship gets old after a while. but the thing to remember is that this person is your friend, she is the one that you can talk to about anything and the sex is still there. if you have the right person, you will stay around them.

No. Its comforting to know someone is going through life right beside you. Someone to love and mutually take care of each other.
