It can be. Marriage is something you work at. But in the long run, if you keep things right and work on it, then its well worth being next to the person that will stand up for you and appreicate you. There is nothing different between dating and being married. The big step is living together. Thats the big mountain. Yes there will be hills to climb. But the view is the best when your at the top! The higher the hill the stronger you get just like your love. Good Luck. Best choice I made yet.

I think it is but it's much more fun if you have a good partner there beside you to help you when you need it and it's good idea to lend a helping hand when they need it. With a relationship of give and take, the hills and valleys can be more like a leisurely hike most days and at times it's a challenge that tests your strength but pulls you closer together as a team when you try your best, it doesn't matter whether you succeed or even fail at the task.

Yes. We have to constantly compromise, give and take.
There is always something to challenge us in a marriage.
We are like rubber bands. We pull away and snap back
again. Staying married can be hard and being single can
be hard. There is not such a thing as a perfect wonderful
blissful exciting and passionate marriage . Only moments
of true happiness every now and then.

Only quitters don't climb. The view from the top of the hill is often worth it.

Yeah...
I've been married just over 7 years, and there's ups and downs.... and sometimes there's an up in one facet of the relationship at the same time there's a down in another facet!!
I think marital success is about making a decision...
"I decide that my marriage will be great."
Then managing that decision.
"... So of course, I won't be cheating..."
"... So of course, I will always speak complimentary of him, especially in public..."
"... So of course, I will never speak of painting the ceiling beige during sex..." (yeah, there's a story there!)
"... So of course, I will always encourage him to be the great guy I fell in love with..."

every marriage has it storms, and hills to climb, but when we succeed in one problem, we also learn from it too. giving up and walking away teaches us nothing at all. marriage is hard, but worth it.

It certainly can be that way but it doesn't have to be. Make sure you really know the person, their values, spiritual beliefs, spending habits, and family members before you tie the knot. This keeps the hills shorter and farther between.

NOW your sounding like my grandma. BUT MARRIAGE is a lot of hills and valleys. BUT there are great times too. TRY to remember those times.

Think of it as a set of tracks... and every once in a while you get off track but you can always get back on the right track. Tis is Life!
