I got married because I loved him with every fiber of my being and could not imagine life without him.
I am totally happy that I got married. He is my best friend. Even after 11 years, he is the one I want to confide in, share things with etc.

I got married about 7 months ago and couldn't be happier about the decision. I know, I know- I hear everyone saying - well, let's see what she says in 10 yrs.
We got married because we were absolutely in love and knew it was what we both wanted. I was 30 and he 31, so we knew ourselves, what we wanted, and had past experiences to grow from. When it's right, it's almost not even a choice - it just feels right and you know it. We have the same values, especially on the big things in life like children, finances, responsibility, and family. He loves me in a way no other man has - with utter selflessness. We are best friends and share so many laughs together. He is so much fun!
Ok, I could go on and on but the point is, I love being married and am very happy!

I got married to my first husband for the wrong reasons. I wanted to get out of my parents house. I had no idea what love really was. I just entered my twenties. He was a bad seed and left me for another woman. The second time I got married and the last time I will get married. I married for love. I was mature enough to know marriage takes work and when in a arguement you need to say sorry if it was your wrong doing and except the sorry from your spouse (that is if it is fighting over something small not cheating or abuse) and move on. I am happy that I got married to my husband but at times I think why (which is normal.)

First of all I got married because I was with this guy since 1999 and he helped me raised my son, so when we got married last year I got pregnant and had a baby but during my pregnancy I had a feeling that he was cheating on me but I can't prove that right now and I still think to this day that he is doing something behind my back. I was happy that we got married but then sometimes I'm not cause if he is cheating on me then of course I would do the same then get a divorce.

I got married because I am in love. I am very happy to be married, he is my best friend, my confidant, my equal. We are partners and share a life. We also have different interest and spend time apart with friends doing different things. It is good to still be your own person and not always have to be together. He goes hunting and fishing with the guys, I go shopping and visiting with my friends. We share common interest and have great communication. It's great to me to have someone to grow old with. But don't feel obligated to marry, some people like being single. Find what you want out of life then decide if you need or want a life long mate.

I met my husband in high school. I loved him then. We dated for awhile, then broke up then dated...you know high school stuff. But we always stayed tight. Anyway, I went into the navy after I graduated (a year after him) and we kept in touch for awhile. We were together when I left but the distance a nd lack of communication was hard. So when I got out I ran into him at the gym and we were married 6months later.
I got married because there was no other man who loved me like he did. Kinda like the way my dad loves me. He will do anything for me. My husband was the one I compared every other guy to. We have the same family values, spiritual beliefs, political views, etc. He gave me the money for my down payment for my car when we were engaged. He encouraged me to pursue my dream of becoming a chef. He supported me every time I wanted to do something. I knew he was the one but I was scared to marry him still.
I am very happy. We have issues that come with time but I dont want the alternative of not being with him. I feel as though God created me for him and him for me specifically. He is wonderfully good looking, and kind. He is considerate. We have been married for 6 years and we have one daugher who is 3. He has agreed to take in my cousins that were put into foster homes. Now we have six kids and will be starting to work on another baby next month. He is the best husband. He works hard to give me everything I need and some of what I want. I would not want anything different.

Me and my husband are both 20 years old, and have been married about 4 months now. We got married becuase there's no one else I would rather be with. Even though we are only 20, we've known eachother since 1st grade, actually hated eachother in highschool, went our seperate ways, him to the Navy and me to a University, and we started actually talking while he was in bootcamp. I would have bet anything in highschool that we wouldn't have been together,lol.
We both agree we wouldn't want to see anyone else in the morning, becuase we are eachothers best friend. People get married becuase everyone wants "their" companion, or that one person they can always count on, and thats a lot of the reason why we got married.
Also, we're very happy, even though he does have to be gone a lot since he's in the Navy, it takes a lot of trust and commitment to be married in the military to begin with. And I think our marrige, in a way, sealed that trust and commitment even more.
I wouldn't reccommend getting married until you've strongly loved someone once before, had time to date around, and (I know it sucks) but have had your heartbroken(i mean hitting the bottom of the ice cream bucket "broken" maybe more than once)
You know when you can consider marriage when that person can put you before themselves, makes you happy (and when you aren't, does their best to make you smile), makes you feel the best about yourself,and when you know you can always count on them no matter what. (and visa versa :)
I never imagined that i could be as happy as I am now. I wouldn't feel complete without him, and I know he feels the same.(sorry, I know I wrote more than I probably needed to, but I hope that helped answer your question :)

My first marriage happened when I was very young - and at that time I didn't know any better; but I discovered that I liked being married. I am married for the third time now; the reason why I was looking to get married was that I wanted to be married. I liked being married, like the companionship. So, when I met a person whose company I enjoyed and who was highly compatible with me I naturally wanted to marry him. I am very happy in my marriage - and I was also happy in my prior marriages, although they ultimately didn't work out for various reasons.

I got married because she was pregnant and was the right thing to do. At first I wasn't in love but now I am happy to say I am. With 2 beautiful kids, I wouldn't have it any other way.

I got married because I love my husband and cant imagine my life without having him in it. My husband is also a soldier and I have had to deal with deployments, special schools and long terms of separation, but every morning when I wake and every night when I go to bed I think about how happy/lucky I am to have him in my life. I will not lie, we do have arguments and times when i feel I could strangle him, but the happy times far outway the bad.
