We are still newly weds, only been married 35 years last June. Four children, none in jail and none on drugs. Half dozen grand kids.
As I told my wife, the song says it all, "if I had to do it all over again, I'd do it with you".
Don't kid yourself, you will have some bumps along the way, but marriage is one heII of a lot of work. If you both five 100%, you have chance at making 35 years too.
BTW, the first 30 are the toughest.

This Sept. will be my husband and I's tenth year being married! We have been together though, for thirteen. My twin sister introduced us during my first few weeks in college. The first night we met, we sat and talked for three hours, without even wondering what time it was. He walked me back to my dorm and then called me when he got back to his. We talked all night long. During the following weeks, we became inseparable. He asked me out about a month after we met. He's the first and only man I have ever dated. I wouldn't want any other! We dated for three years...two of them engaged. We have four daughters together now. I am still very much in love with him and always wanting to be with him, no matter what we're doing. We're still each other's best friend and confidant. We've had some rough times, but all marriages do. We've stood beside each other and worked through it. Now, we're more in love than when we first got together.I couldn't imagine my life without him and he's the same. It's good to see that there are a lot of other people out there that feel the same way about their spouses.

:) I don't only love my husband of twenty years, I'm in love with him. I prayed one night that God would send me someone that thought I was beautiful in their eye's no matter what. That they knew and loved the Lord. That they were a hard worker and wanted something in life. A family man that wanted to spend his time with his family. I even told God that dark eyes and dark hair wouldn't be bad either,lol. Well within two weeks when not even looking ,this soul mate walked into my life and we will be married 19 years on August 8th. We lost four children before having 3 surgeries to finally have a child. I had placenta previa and was hospitalized. He spent 81 of 83 nights in that little hospital bed with me until our daughter came Dec. 27. He brought a pumpkin to carve @ Halloween, A store bought Thanksgiving dinner on Thanksgiving for us , then he brought a Christmas tree 4 us to decorate @ hospital. those two and a half months was tough but he went through it with me. Every night after work he came. The doctors said "no more Children". I wanted a son and 4 years later I had one. Children now 16 and11. Now the hard part starts and I hope it will keep us strong. We have always said that we are inside a circle and no arrows can get to us. No family, no bills, no friends, no nothing will ever come to destroy us. Good Luck and don't just LOVE, STAY IN LOVE !!!!!!!

You know this is a forum to discuss all areas of marriages AND DIVORCES, as it's listed. My suggestion to you is don't read the ones "go down the drain", and concentrate on the good ones, or at the very least, choose your words more wisely. I'm sure alot of people took offense to your remark here tonight.
Now with that out of the way (I can be nice), do you what you should do? Print your question off the computer tonight and show it your husband. I think it is the highest compliment a spouse can make about thier loved one. Congrads!
Goodluck & Godspeed.......................

I met the man of my dreams, my soul mate, my last year of college and we have been together for 37 years now. How did I meet him. I heard the instructor tell this man with "shades" that if he had blue eyes she would give him an A. Two months late I offered to trade old mid-terms with this blue-eyed devil. And a week later as I passed him in the hall of the student commons, I said "Hi stuck up." He said he would be right back, went in the men's room. When he came out, he asked me to lunch.
After lunch we went to class and he took me to see his puppies, no kidding. We listened to his records. I met his niece, nephew and Mother. That day when he brought me home he actually proposed. I accepted two weeks later and five months later we were married.
No marriage is a bed or roses. Marriage is like a job, but the greatest job in the world. I love this man with all my being. He is my best friend and companion for life.
I felt the fates were destined for us to meet way back when. I never regret marrying a man who makes me feel like life is the best thing ever. I really feel like I have known him my entire life.

I have been married for 3 years. I got married when I was 16 and honestly I dont care what people say about that. I am happy! I have a 18 month old baby who I adore and I love being a mother. Starting out young only gives me more time to be happy with a family!
And I am so happy for you!

I have been married almost three years now and I am still deeply in love with my husband. He is the best I have ever seen. He still writes me sweet notes and tells me I am beautiful everyday and tells me how much he loves me everyday. I couldnt ask for a better soulmate. I really got lucky! I never thought I would find true love like this. I feel like the luckiest person in the world. I am so happy for you too!
