Were you married before? Are you happier in this marriage than first? If not married before are you happy you waited?

I am considering leaving a marriage of 4 years and I am now over 30. I just want to know if there is hope out there to fall in love again and it can be better than before?

we met at church. at the time i wasn't looking at him i was looking at a guy i knew had liked me for awhile. my sister actually pointed him out when she told me "hey that guy has a cute butt".
LOL. this is my only marriage.
my husband was divorced when he was 27. he says this marriage is a far better one than he had before.
i guess i am glad i waited a little longer to get married.i was 20.
i've seen a lot of bad marriages and i've seen some good ones.

Well, I would never tell a sista to stay with a man she doesn't love, but take it from this 30-something sister: there are SLIM pickins out here. Its not like in our 20's there were tons of guys. The guys over 35 are all married, have issues (thats why they're single or divorced), have kids, I mean the list goes on and on. I'm not exaggerating. Before you leap, look at what you have. I'm divorced but it was the right decision for me. Be absolutely, positively sure, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that you want to leave your man.

I met my husband on a dateline phone service. Yes i was married before and my first husband died and my second husband abandoned me after the first six months of marriage with no intention of ever coming back. My husband now was a true God send and he is the best thing that ever happened to me. I thank God for him and my marriage every day:)
Yes i have to tell you there there is always hope of finding love again and i wish you the best in doing so. Do not give up hope and keep looking. Hugs to you today:) My husband and i are both Christians and God is the center and head of our marriage.

High school was not happy I'm single miss somethings
but like the idea of being my own person,don't think about marriage if i ever did i would just read this site it would reminds me if i could ever forget what it's about.
So many unhappy people,for all kinds of reason. My advise would be to but finding some1on the back burner for a while till you get you self back up & going,Get out of 1 problem before looking for another they will find you in no time. Best of luck on your new --------- choice

I am married for the second time, I met my new wife at my work. I am much much happier now than I was in my first marriage.

While in high school, I was with a group of friends one weekend at a dairy queen eating with them. There were several guys and we were there just having fun. I was teasing one of the married ladies that I knew very well and ask her what she was doing next weekend. She turned it around and introduced me to one of the girls that was working with her. She and I spoke for a few minutes and I made a date with her to go to the movies the next Saturday evening. I had forgotten that I already had a date for earlier that day to go skating. When that day rolled around I took the first girl skating, went home and showered then picked up my date and took her to the movies. At the movies, we saw several of the first date's friends. This was a disaster at school. She was in several of my classes and she was quite rude to me for the remainder of the year along with her friends. The young lady that I took to the movies was a "KEEPER". She and I went out for the next two years and I married that young lady. We have been married for 31 years. We have three children and one grandchild. We became Christians about twenty years ago and I have never been happier in my life. GOD certainly blessed me with her. We both completed our schooling and had jobs as a result. I love her more than anything in this world and would never do anything to hurt her. Her mother now lives next door to us so that we are able to be near if she needs us. My parents are still living within two miles and we are in contact with them very frequesntly. Two of our three children are also Christians as well as our daughter-in-law. Have a great evening and a wonderful Lord's Day.
Thanks,
Eds

Husband (2nd marriage for both) and I met online 11 years ago. We were in our early 30s when we met and he moved from Seattle to Texas so we could be together.

At a wedding. Not married before. Married 17 years. I don't regard my not getting married sooner as "waiting". I regard it as taking my sweet time evaluating what I wanted and then finding it. Looks like it worked, eh?
