It's the most fun for the first year, it gets less fun when you add kids. Between five and seven years you feel taken for granted. But if you stick it out it gets fun again.
You gotta work it!

I think being married can be wonderful if your with the right person. It helps when you have a lot in common and you know when to give the other some space. It's rough when you stop communicating or start fighting over every little thing that happens in life. It's work, don't think it's not, because it is. Your living with someone 24/7 for the rest of your life. Things are not always going to be easy. Marriage is what you make it and how much you put into it. But it has to be both of you giving 100% to the marriage.

Marriage is different things to different people. I know married people who aren't that close to their spouses. I know others who are joined at the hip.
Marriage runs in cycles. It takes work to keep it interesting. That "blast" of love that comes from a new relationship will fade over time, and it will change to a "normalcy"...but sometimes complacency.
When you are single, you don't think about kids, or money, or housing, etc. You just feel "love". A relationship is about love to be sure, but it's also trust, companionship, friendship and respect, and so much more.
Be sure that before you take that next step, that you've discussed your goals, money, kids, and all the stuff you don't really want to talk about. The lust and love are the "easy" part.
For me, it is the greatest thing in the world, my wife is my best friend.
Good luck!

It is so much fun!!!! My wife and I love each other. We work to understand each other and to appreciate each other so the love will always be strong. It’s great and far better then being single. I now have a partner to work through the hard time of life with and to celebrate the good time with. It has ups and downs just like life but overall it makes life better in so many ways.
That just may be me though. I did marry a great woman.

Being married should not feel any different from dating someone when it comes to it. You should not feel any different or do anything different. The only difference is you are leaggly bound, you have a piece of paper you both signed. If you are in a good relationship, love each other have made commitments why is that different. There is not this line that says over here are feelings for dating and over here once over thsi line you must have thsi feeling.

It is fun. It just becomes "comfortable" after a certain amount of time. For those who are high thrill seekers marriage wouldn't be "fun".
It does take a certain type to appreciate the companionship once the lust softens.
I would still recommend it. You will always have a super special best friend that you can count on until death does you part.

Marriage is not about "fun" and contrary to common belief, it's not about love either. Marriage is for 2 people who are mutually attracted to each other, trust each other, and share common goals and interests. Without trust you will notice "signs" of cheating all around you that may not mean anything. You both should feel close to the same about sex, money, children, and the amount of time they want to spend together.

Hi Sammi,
MY wife and I lived together for two years first, I feel this is a good time to get to know one another and see if it will work first. When you live with someone day after day, it changes people. So, take the extra time and be patient, your still very young, enjoy or freedom for a while. E-mail me if you have more questions

I LOVE being married. I think it's great. I love sharing my life with someone else and knowing that my husband will always be here for me. It's a great feeling. Sometimes it's hard, but you have to work it out.
