the first, the couple have to get used to each other, the things that they don't agree on, being tied down and not being able to do the same things they would if they were single and so forth.

I would say the first year is the hardest. I have been married almost 8yrs and I would say the first is the hardest. I would say this becuase both person's involved struggle at times the realization of this being the last person they will be with or well that is what marriage is to be about. I think also the first baby can also bring many ups and downs in any relationship.
Really though if you look at it this way if you make it past the first 5yrs you are in pretty good shape because you know that what ever comes along that you and your mate will be able to tackle anything head-on.
I hope this helps answer your question and may God bless you and your family and Best Wishes in your future and what ever it may hold for you.

You know I often wonder this. I have been married once before and divorced in the first year but I am married again and I have been married for 4 yrs now. Our first was rocky but the second was the hardest for me. You can get a different answer from everyone I believe. It just depends on the people and the situations.

The first year is the hardest. All of a sudden you are living with this person and everything that you didn't know about them comes out. The first and second year is when I think most of the compromises and negotiation takes place.

The one after the first child is born, so for us that was year between our forth and fifth anniversary (is that considered year 4 or 5?). I didn't think the first year was hard, and we didn't live together before we got married, we were just so crazy in love we didn't even see all those annoying things. About the time that shine wore off our daughter came along, which was a whole new set of circumstances to adjust to. It'll be seven years in July.

I've been married since November and I think that this has been the hardest of our 3 year relationship so it must be the first.

It has to be either the first year or the year following a baby.
The first year of marriage was not hard but it was a matter of adjusting to eachother and having to share space (we didn't live together until we were married).
The first year with a baby is very hard because all of the focus is given to the baby and rightfully so. It is full of sacrifice and sleepless nights and worry. But it is also the most rewarding year.

I think 3-5 is the hardest. That is when things are getting tough and you have the opportunity to really know the person. If you make it pass 7 then you realize that you can't change that person and yiu either accept them flaws and all or cut your losses and leave.
