marriage in your opinion?

Question

Do you like being married? What is it like compared to single lonely life? How do you feel about marriage?

Answer 1

I like my marriage, sometimes it is not easy and it is lots of work but i love it, we have so much good time and I do not even like to think of me with out my husband.

A good marriage is an intimate and loving relationship which gives both partners security, friendship, companionship, support, comfort, and deep love that penetrates every aspect of life. None of this can be achieved without work and sacrifice.

Marriage may be compared to a plant that requires daily nurture, daily attention, daily care and cultivation. It will not develop of its own accord; only as effort and will are exerted will it grow and mature. For a marriage to succeed, both husband and wife must be committed to its success. They must build an enduring love relationship that is centered in the heart of their consciousness. Their relationship must be nurtured with the water of loyalty and love.

Answer 2

I hated being married! Not that I was married to a bad guy it just was very constricting. I got divorced about a year ago and my ex and I are still friendly. I love being single and free and doing my own thing. I go on trips, take out the garbage, mow the grass, the house stays clean and I do not have the stress of expecting someone else to help out and never having that occur. I think some people are made to get married and some people are not. I personally am a person that should not be married. You have to decide if you are the marrying kind. This is not just a sex with the same person type of question it has a lot to do with how independent you are.

Answer 3

You're right that being single is lonely, and if it goes on too long you start thinking "Am I normal? Does anyone want me?" Marriage validates that at least one person wanted you. The good thing about marriage is "having someone to nudge" when you see something you want to share, like the Grand Canyon or a beautiful sunset. You can share experiences and not feel alone. The not-so-good thing is that you'll get on each other's nerves (usually for the very quality you started out admiring) and it might get to be constant friction. Closeness has its advantages and penalties. Don't marry until you find someone you know you can love a long time .. and when you marry, enjoy your spouse and don't rush the children. When they arrive, they take center stage and your life is over. Good luck.

Answer 4

Who says being single is being lonely? I was single before I got married and was lonlier during the almost 20 years I was married than I have ever been before or since being single. My feelings about marriage is that not everyone is cut out to be married and I am one of those people. I prefer my freedom, the ability to choose my own lifestyle/path and I like hogging the remote and bed covers.

Answer 5

I love being married. It gave me validation that I am a lovable person. Something which I didn't really have much of while I was single. It definitely has its ups and downs but I believe it is a work in progress and can only be better as the years pass.

Answer 6

No marriage is perfect, just like being single isn't always perfect, but on the whole I love it. I've been with my husband for over a decade and i would much prefer to be married. Being single is such hard work as far as dating is concerned. It was like being on a roller coaster when i was single, didn't like that one, liked that one but he didn't really dig me, loved that one but he just used me... At least with marriage you know the person loves you and wants to be with you (at least most of time anyway) ;} I guess it's more cosy and predictable and that's what I want long-term.

Answer 7

Even though my husband of 13 years and I have had our up's and down's - I do like being married. Being single I had my independence, but being married also have that. I have someone who looks out for my best interest, checks in with me, and includes me in his life and activities. I love being married; it's the ultimate committment. You can buy a house with someone, have a child with someone, etc. ..but taking that vow that you will stay with this person in sickness and in health till death do you part is "heavy". I love the fact that we keep working on our relationship when we could walk away. That vow means so much to both of us! To us it is so much more than a "piece of paper".

Many wouldn't agree with me, but believe it - marriage ROCKS!

Answer 8

I like the ideal of being married but like any other problem it comes with its own baggages. The thing about being married is when your mad at your partner you have to deal with looking at that face all day or worse sleeping in bed right next to the person where as being single you can just tell that person get the stepping. like I said both sides comes with its own set of problems.

Answer 9

I like marriage. Single was fun but lonely. Marriage isn't always all that.. but I like having a companion who I can count on and share my life with.

Answer 10

Yea,,,I like it..not sure what a single lonely life would be like, I've never been lonely, if I were to do it all over again, I would take bring the 2nd wife in to the relationship much sooner.
