I was, and things didn't work out. So now I am divorced, and much happier.

No, I love my marriage. It's not a fantasy where a prince sweeps me off my feet and we live fantastically forever. People need to realize that marriage is something that you have to work hard at. Honesty and truth, faithfullness, loyalty, consideration, sensitivity, empathy, etc.......in other words, love. You have to truly love the person that you are marrying. If you do, no matter what your relationship toils through, you will make it together and be able to enjoy the fruits of your labor. I am not frustrated with my marriage. It has lived above and beyond my expectations. I hope the same for those that will be getting married and for those that are alreayd married. Best wishes and take care.

Marriage changes over time.... I think it was meant to be that way. You are initially attracted (for procreation) and eventually a lot of that dissipates - but then the "real love" develops and your relationship deepens. You have to WORK at keeping that "feeling" alive. I remember when our kids were young, my husband and I had "date night", every friday from 5-7 (got a sitter), met after work - and there were RULES: No talking about kids, money, jobs, work, stuff going on with relatives.... it was really a 'date'.... makes you think about what brough you together.
Marriage is a commitment to each other through life - to be there through thick & thin.
I am extremely happy - and although we've been through no jobs and kids and frustration - I had someone to go through it with - The point is that you have someone who goes through things with you, good and bad - "like a rock"...
Gotta look at the long-term.

I think all women expected more then what they got, but that's our own fault. We knew what we were getting into before we got married. Some of us should have thought twice. I am happy in my marriage but understand frustration too.

Yes definately. Some may think I have a good marriage and in a way I do, but it's not what I expected.
I'm working with my husband on it. Hopefully, we can make it work. We are trying.
We are good friends, just no spark.

I love my H but I would never marry him again or even live together. I need my space and I hate the responsibilty of having someone depend on you 24/7........im too independant I guess, but man, if i could just have my own place and my own money and my own crap to deal with, and then see him on the weekends or whatever, Im sure Id be alot more fun to be with. Sigh

I'm not frustrated yet. I have 3 beautiful children. I have a husband who treats me like a queen.
I'm still waiting for that mansion on the hill. Which will probably never happen.

I can't help you on this one. I've never been happier, and adore my marriage. It's all what you make it - if it's not living up to your expectations, take the initiative to change it for the better!

It is better than I could have ever imagined. My friends and family are jealous. I also expected the worse though!
Expect to be treated the same as you treat someone else. Don't expect someone to take care of you or create your happiness. That doesn't work.

Nope neither one of them have. I have been married 2 times and i have come to reliaze that it is my problem. I do not like having to please anyone but myself. I do not like having to take care of someone else. I already have 2 kids did not marry to have another one. I guess i am not the marring kind. I was happier single. Did not have to fuss to get things done projects completed just did them and moved on. Guess that is what i have to do now..
