There are ups and downs in marriage. It is a partnership with each giving 100%
When you truly love each other and you are unselfish, you can expect someone to share good times and bad, a shoulder to cry on, an understanding ear, cuddles, kisses, never be alone, someone to watch TV at night with, etc.
If you are blessed with children, well then, that's a big plus. It's hard work, probably the hardest job you will ever have, but the most rewarding.
But if you rush into marriage without talking about what you each expect from it, like children, if the wife will be a stay at home mom, religion, who takes care of the money, etc. then you will be setting yourself up for a lot a big problems right from the start.
Don't get married too young and look for someone with good morals and good character, someone unselfish.
I got it wrong the 1st time, but I am so happily marries to a wonderful man now. Take your time and don't settle.

Wow! what a question! Well for starters You can expect to be the happiest you have ever been in your life. Waking up every morning with the one person you love the most everyday is so amazing, You will learn that just when you think you couldn't love more you find that you do...Everything will mean much more when your happily married every laugh every hug every kiss every word you say. Now for the down side you will get to know things about this person that you never knew existed. For example your once behind close doors trip to the bathroom becomes a party of 2. fights are not so easy to walk away from cause you have no choice but to work it out..which in my book makes the relationship stronger... But of all the things that will change if you marry i know most of them are for the better. Just the idea that you have found your soul mate and knowing you can stop looking and never waking up alone again to be is the best thing in the world.Good Luck

It can be rough at times but life in general can be rough so why not spend it with someone you love and care about? But a word of advice (and I'm being serious) keep track of when shes gonna have pms and try and be as quiet and inconspicuous as possible. After about 6 months of being married I realized we fought way more then so I started marking it on the calendar so he'd know when to hide!
Really though...being married can be great as long as you treat each other with respect and are on the same page about the big issues (kids, finances etc)

If you plan to get married you should expect commitment from both parties. Of course just like the answers above kids but ingnore them when they say having kids is bad,children actually brightens up your marriage life.
Of course things will get though when you need to make decisions together with your wife but if you are a good husband I'm sure you can sort it out.
Lastly, your in-laws might have high expectations on you all the time so just be yourself and treat them and your wife well.
That's all I can think of so far. Thanks!

Things to be different then the way they are now. You will relax in your relationship. And that car action you been getting. That will stop, been married 27 years of my life. I think I know it all?? NOT everyday is a new day. Good Luck!!

Expect to always stay broke. LOL. Seriously, there will always be ups and downs. Things really do change when you say I DO though. Some people are just meant to be together....if you are lucky you will be one of those couples. Then the ups will be more numerous than the downs.

ROTFLMAO! AWESOME QUESTION. According to 98% of the posters here you should expect to get divorced as soon as things get tough. You should also expect to have kids and expect that you won't give a sh*t about them because YOU are more important than your kids ever thought of being. Just ask the singlemoms here, they'll tell ya how "it is"!

It depends on a lot of things. How long have you known each other? Do either of you have kids? Do either of you like pets & the other doesn't? There are lots of other questions.

Responsibility.
Company for life (you'll never be alone).
Less burden.
Commitment (on both sides).
Love.
A totally different and easy going life(comparatively - but only if you know how to handle marriage)
