Twenty five years together still going strong or feeling tired?

Question

I want all those who have completed or going to complete twenty five years of their marriage, how they fell now? Do you still have the same love & feelings for your spouse or things have faded with these twenty five or more years together? Are you still looking for more to come for you two or want to retire now? How these twenty five years or more spent between you two were, full of responsibilities for kids & now you feel relived from these responsibilities? Enjoy the company of each other still or are bored with each other now? Share your thoughts with me as I complete my twenty five years of marriage on 23rd of this month. One thing more for the Indian Astrologers who believe marriage between Mangalik & non mangalik is not auspicious, mine was such a case but no harm came to my life being non mangalik myself married to a mangalik lady for twenty five years. Now what your astrology say about this?

Answer 1

Well congratulations Vijay. A quarter of a century for you both. Thats commitment. Sometimes it doesn't work for everybody, no matter how hard you try to save whats left.(25 for me too this July)For some there are other issues that come into the equasion, like alcohol, infidelity, abuse (mental and/or physical) or the total non-existence of love and affection. Believe it or not, children actually play a huge role in keeping relationships together. I think everybody expects more from a relationship/marriage especially after so many years.
Remember in different communities/countries life styles vary. 'Commitment' to marriage shouldn't differ but it does. My soon to be 'ex' and I are worlds apart, we're not on the same planet. We have space ships that help us communicate. I send a space ship to Mars whenever I need money for shopping. But we're married for 25 yrs. Understanding one's failures and weakness's sometimes make you a failure and a weak person. Thats when you have to sever all ties and move on. Manglik and Non Manglik? Please explain what it is as we dont do the caste thing in SA. Again...CONGRATS!!

ps. The professor's English was classic..thanx!

I definitely have been married for just about 21 years. My husband is only amazing. i like him greater each and every 300 and sixty 5 days. No it hasn't been a fairy tail, we've 2 females- the two in college now. ultimately we've started playing one yet another on a sparkling point. We circulate to dinner and check out each and every others eyes, and hear what's on each and every others suggestions. (with out interruptions!). we don't call one yet another 50 situations an afternoon. we are mushy and have a point of have faith so there is not any choose. the better area approximately staying with a similar individual a majority of those years is the form you get to be attentive to a minimum of one yet another so nicely- you be attentive to while it is been a bad day by the situation of his shoulders. He knows with out asking which nights you're able to fairly he rub your lower back and bypass the intercourse. I desire you the suited on your twenty 5th- with a bit of luck you have specific plans made- we are making plans an African Safari for our twenty 5th!!

Answer 3

wow, quite the run together! I wont say much, my wife and I have only been together for 18 years and my kids are 20yo, 17yo, 16yo. and 9. its been wonderful to have raised my children and to have my wife by my side, we sure have had our ups and downs and now that the kids , except for the little one, arent around as much and dont need as much i find that my wife and i have a lot more time alone together. I dont think that were bored with eachother but it sure isnt the way it used to be. Im not sure how ill feell when they are all gone. My oldest is gone and I miss her all the time, I dont think ill be relieved when my kids are gone, ill be a little depressed i guess untill i get used to the quiet.

Love should not be taken for granted,, We don't even talk anymore unless is absolutely essential..
