My husband and I started dating in high school and married only a year after graduation. He is the best husband and every day I can't believe how lucky I am. However, sometimes I wonder if he will eventually get tired of me or get curious about what else is out there. I was his first girlfriend, first kiss, first everything. I had dated a few guys before him and I realize how lucky I am to have such an awesome husband. Do you think a man can be happy forever with just one woman? He just rolls his eyes at me when I ask him, and tells me that he wouldn't have married me if he was interested in finding out about what else is out there. Is this guy too good to be true? I look at other marriages and wonder how I got so lucky.

This 80 year old guy who has been married to the same gal for47 years can only suggest you do as we did. Learn to compromise on everything and never go to bed angry with him or her. Kiss and make up. Making up is wonderful. Sex is usually the icing to a cake after the couple makes up.
Never say goodbye to your spouse without kissing each other when going off to work or wherever. Kiss and hug when you get back together after a work or travel day. And always compromise whenever something comes up that one of you disagrees on. Talk it out and if he wants to go to the right and you insist he goes to the left, than its time to go together holding hands straight for your joy of compromise. Trust this ol man it works wonders..

There are billions of answers to this question since philosophically what makes a man (or a woman for that matter) happy is unique. But if I get the gist of your question, will you be enough? and will he stray? The odds are against you. depending on the study you view the numbers change but it is often accepted that three out of four men and one out of two women have contact outside of their primary relationship that their partner would object to and define as sexual in nature. The interesting thing is that the way you word your question shows that you have some insight into the phenomenon. For both genders, it is often curiosity of something new. Many people questioned about their motives and reasons explain that they did not want to exit their primary relationship. Rather, they just wanted to experience the exhilaration of the courtship ritual anew. Evidence suggests that the bodies physiology rewards itself during these rituals in one way and during ongoing relationships in another way. Both appear to have positive results for the health both mentally and physically of the subject in question. That may be the reason that a small minority of couples are successful in open relationships. But that is another topic...

You are truly blessed indeed. Yes, men can and do stay with one women when the relationship is good. Relax and enjoy your life with him. Believe it or not, most men are a lot like women in the fact that they too want a stable rewarding life. Having such are super great life with him as you do, is just such a reward!!
I am very happy for you both.

I do think a man can be happy with just one woman his entire life. I also think you should believe him when he says he wouldn't have married you if he wanted to see what else is out there. It's not too good to be true, I think you should be happy with what you have and "live in the now" instead of worrying about what might happen later. If you just worry about what might happen later then there is a lot of stuff you could be missing out on right now.

You are a very lucky woman and the answer to your question is a resounding yes. If he treats you right and you treat him right then you should have a very happy and healthy relationship. Marriages can get into ruts at times and it is up to both of you to keep it fresh by doing new and different things together. Never take him for granted and I hope he doesn't do that to you. Good luck to you and yours.

Sounds as though you truly have a man to celebrate. I would make sure he always knows how much you love him. I would also try to tone down the insecurity and work on being more confident - low self-esteem and insecurity can drive a man away after a couple of decades of it.

Most other marriages fail because there's no real committment and they recite the vows as a formality, not knowing what they're saying, and sex before marriage also tends to spoil and devalue marriages.
Many people today are clueless, selfish and airheads - this doesn't sound like it applies in your case.

Yes. My sister and brother-in-law have only been with each other and they have been married 23 years. I don't know of a happier married couple I have ever met.

Stop wondering and stop asking. You're being disrespectful when you do that. You have a wonderful husband who is happy with you and you're pushing this ridiculous issue? Stop it.
