is ne one truely happy in their marriage?

Answer 1

Why use "ne" when "any" is only one little letter longer?

In ANY case, *I* am happy in my marriage! My wife and I have been married for 21 years, and I feel sooooo lucky to have found her. Remember, though: it takes work on both partners' parts to obtain happiness. We did not stumble into it, we earned it. You can too!

Answer 2

I've been married nine years and I am truly happy in my marriage. Hubbie is my best friend and I feel that he knows me and understands me better than anyone else. But make no mistake... marriage is hard work. We've definitely gone through times where we frankly did not like each other... The key is to stick it out, TALK without blaming, and understand that different people have different needs and desires and personalities... it's NOT personal. I have to say... sometimes I read the questions and answers on YA Marriage and Divorce... and people sound SO immature. I don't mean to be disrespectful to those that are genuinely seeking answers, but there is a difference between being HURT by someone's actions and talking it out and coming to a compromise vs. being HURT by someone's actions and then thinking that YOUR way is the only right way along with a total refusal to see another person's point of view...
Sorry to go on about this... I know this wasn't the question...

Answer 3

doODADOO,Well Sweety there are some but not the majority.But since my divorce and disabling I have sat,watched and learned how to make a happy,loving and longlasting marrige ! Disabled by a motercycle wreck though, I may never get the chance to do it right ! The main thing is, finding a partner who is like minded. The bible tells the story, a man and a women must "cleve", two become one flesh ! Then everything comes together.

Answer 4

I'm not married but have been with my partner since high school (13 yrs), does that count?
We have had a couple of rough patches, but successfully both worked through them, we now have 2 adorable kids and ttc another one. I think we have been lucky to grow together, not apart like a lot of young couples do. We have finally found our groove since having kids, it is no longer about us, though spending quality time together, wink wink nudge nudge, lol, the kids are our number 1 priority.
We love each other, faults and all.

Answer 5

Your life and your marriage...is what YOU make it.
It can be fun, happy..adventurous...but you are the ones that guide it!
Mine, is fun and flirty and sexy....and that is after 12 years and we have a baby on the way! (I am 40, he is 38) Our son is 10!
Marriage is NOT a job!
You do not get paid to be married...unless you count all of the kisses and hugs and hand holding! Then that is the best pay of all!
One should not have to work at it....unless you are talking about teasing and making love!
Yes there are good times and bad times....
But you know what?
THEY ONLY MAKE YOU STRONGER!
It makes you run to each other and want to be together more!
We had a time where he almost died in a car accident, He was hit by a gravel truck full of rocks the size of a truck tire......and at the same time my mother was dying of cancer in the other hospital.
Do you know what he told me? He told me to see my mother before she dies. What kind of man, lying on his own death bed grants his wife permission to see her dying mother?
I never left his side...and not only did he live...but my mom did too!
So, moral of the story....even though the way seems dark...there is always light at the end of the tunnel!

So...any other questions? LOL

Blessings and happiness to one and all!

Answer 6

i don't believe peeps who just claim, "my marriage is great." Maybe I'm being cynical here but I think that means you've yet to be challenged. The common thing I noticed when someone says they are happily married is that they can't imagine their life without their spouse. Not that everything is so great. It's hard and so many things about being married goes against our natural instincts. The only possible way to get through it is to be with that right person....that soul mate. Otherwise, the bullsh*t isn't worth it and that's what makes us miserable.

Answer 7

I think marriage, just like life... it is what you make of it. I don't think there is a such thing is 100% happy...that means everything must be or go the way you want it and that is just not realistic...but there is a such thing as 100% unconditional love. which like I said it is what you make of it. I don't always get what I want from my husband, but when I weigh everything, I am happy and content.
It could always be worse.

Answer 8

It's always so interesting to see the large number of women who say that they are happily married. I wonder what their husbands would say????
There are very few men who after being married for a number of years, actually feel that they are truly happy.
Most are only comfortable.
All the rest is an act to keep their wives satisfied.

Answer 9

The purpose of marriage is to glorify God and through another person, draw us closer to Christ. Its when we do that, that we can experience happiness. People who think that marriage in and of itself is supposed to be blissful 90% of the time are misguided. When you understand what marriage is really about..which is selflessly giving yourself to another person and living to make THEM happy instead of yourself..then the 'truly happy' trick question doesnt come up. Marriage is work..flat out...and its not going to be rosey all the time but it can be fulfilling and happy if both parties do their part.

Answer 10

yup. we complement, not complete each other. we are two whole people that are made better by the other. it's the best decision i've ever made. i've been married 4 1/2 yrs and it's great.
