Is marriage the great eye opener?

In my opinion marriage is an eye opener. You have an extra set of eyes seeing all your mistakes up close and personal. But if you're lucky it's your best friend and he or she will overlook the bad choices you make.

Yeah I am afraid so. There are good marriages but those are people who don't have false expectations. People who don't have a fairy tale idea of love tend to do better in marriages. They are honest about who they are and what they want and expect.

Thinking you will see a better person once the marriage vows are over........NO WAY . anything bad just gets worse.

If you don't want the same things or if you don't see things in the same way there could be trouble.

Love is NOT blind. and it can't solve all things.

Nooooooooooo, Love is blind, take your time to get it into you system. Don't rush into marriage! I did that and I don't even know how to get out of it! I thought I married the right man and he's totally left (if you know what I mean) I'm trying to get a divorce.... Please I'm telling you, it looks like a good idea to get marry, but don't do it! Not for at lease 2-3 years of knowing each other inside out! Love isn't enough for a lifetime partnership. It takes a lot more than love to make a relationship last. Don't make the mistake I did... be patient. Good luck with you two, but take your time...

I think it is, especially if you didn't live together before marriage.
All the cute things you loved about each other are now irritating and all the bad habits are out in the open.Don't get me wrong I'm not against marriage. I just feel a lot of people expect marriage to be a fairy tail and when they realize it takes a lot of work and dedication a lot of times they second guess their love.

I think it is if the couple hasnt lived together first ...just speaking from experience here. My ex-husband and I didnt live together before we got married I was ready for a divorce after 2 yrs. My husband now I have been with for 6yrs and we lived together for 4yrs. I was one of those who used to be against living together before marriage but I think if I would have lived with my ex before we jumped into marriage I would have realized that we werent meant to be and it would have saved us both alot of heartach and not to mention time and money. I am perfectly happy with the relationship I have now yeah we have downs just like nay relationship but we get threw much smoother than my ex and I did I think it is because we knew what each other was like before we married and that we could live with each other as well as two people can.

Never been married, so I can't answer that part from personal experience. Love can make ya blind though!

we are blinded by the many things that love throws our way, and we are blind to the many things that can go wrong in love,. Garfields got the right answer.

From the Devil's Dictionary love is temporary insanity cured by marriage. In answer to your question and in light of the aforementioned, it sure is.

Marriage sucks! There are absolutely no real rewards in it.
If your marriage lasts to old age, guess what.....
you become friends and caretakers. "Did you take your pills?"
"Will you pick up some Metamucil at the store?"
You hold hands, but not from love, it's to hold each other up off the ground.
You get fat, dry waffly skin that you don't want to look at on your mate and you hate it on yourself.
No offense, but most often it's the husband who gets weak and feeble first. And believe me, mama resents it.
DON'T GET MARRIED.

Your eyes need to be open before you marry.
