My husband and I have been together a long time (almost 20 yrs. that's long for today's standards) And I can honestly say that we are very happy. Nothing makes me happier than when he comes home for lunch everyday and then home again once his work day is finished. We can't wait for the weekends, spring, summer, fall & Christmas breaks to have more time together.He is truly my best friend and I know I'm his too. People kind of giggle when we talk about each other because they say we still light like up love sick teenagers when we do. So yes there are still married people out here that are truly happy. I just read some of your other answers and I just want to say that I feel sorry for those of you that said NO, they have no idea what their missing with that attitude. Love is very possiable if your will to communicate. I'm sure all those reading your answers will have a hard time believing this but my husband and I have never had an argument. This isn't the first for either of us and we learned a lot from the first. We don't have to get to the point of arguing because we know how to communicate with each other. We talk about everything, from what to have for dinner to the kids. Comminucation is very important for a good marriage.

Yes, my husband and I have been married over 11 years and are very happy.
However, we've both been married twice before and learned, communication and respect are the two most important aspects of every relationship. Dating each other is also a biggie.
After walking away two other times...I realize that every single day I have a choice - to be married to this man one more day - or walk away again. When the going gets tough...does that men walk? No, it means digging in your heels and working it out. Some problems are bigger than others...but if you know you can walk away at any time...you tend to work on your relationship. We never have discussed divorce or leaving each other. We just know its an option and it keeps us making our relationship the best it can be.
Today, I stay. Tomorrow is another day. I'm sure I will decide to stay, but its my choice. Its better when your in a relationship by choice, not by law.

I'd have to say that I am TRULY happy! I have been married for 13 years now. We have 2 kids that are 14 & 12 yrs. I am a young looking but very mature 33. Living well and loving life. It has been tough from time to time. But we have found our way. I can honestly say that I would be lost without him. Good luck in your adventure!

I am happily married. My husband and I was together for only 2 weeks, and then we got married! And we are still very happy. He is the most important person in my life. A family who prays together, stays together. If you invite God into you marriage, you can be very happy.
My parents are doing that too, and they are married for 32 years now. They are so happy.
So yes, I believe that you can be truly happy.

Listen, there are more of us out here than you think that are truly happy. Everybody has their ups and downs, but wouldn't life be boring if ya didn't? You have to want the same things out of life, and do your best to make your partner happy.

... and here's one now! We have been married for over 17 years (sounds SO long, but it went really quickly...), through LOTS of ups and downs, really poor at times, but always got through it together. Over the years, the love has deepened and grown, with this extreme happiness that just seems to fill each day!

Yes I am truly happy with my marriage. But marriage is a team effort and both have to make it work. It has not always been an easy road but that has made us stronger and love one another even more. Trust me we have been through alot in our marriage.

Absolutely, I am TRULY happy. Third time around but this one is the ONE!!! He is my best friend, we share everything (cept what I'm getting him for Christmas). I love him with all my heart and can't imagine life without him. I hope everyone gets as lucky as we are.

27 years, my mom and dad. boy do they fight or have "agreeuments".. they have this difference of appinonen and they get along. my dad can say something and sometimes my mom stops what she is doing.
or my mom will tease my dad about what happens and he laughs,,,i think that you can marry anyone but have to work out how to get allong and laugh
or talk and pay the bill but no one is the head of the house.
both my parents at diffent times have been the head of the house and they stilll love and care and will retire and live forever together.
