What honest advice would you give someone planning to wed (not me - my advice would be: don't lol), and has your marriage turned out as you would have hoped?

go in with the right intentions, plan to have children, go to church together, don't stay out either of you without your spouse after midnight (either of you), stay away from addictions, trust each other, converse with each other, make plans, tolerate each other thru the bad times, and if you're in the US then stay married over 10 years, and, never cheat. All marriages have bumps, some have hills, some have mountains. Yes, turned out as I had hoped.

I had a wonderful happy marriage for 20 years until he just up and left - 3 years later I have met someone else and have been happy with him for 7 years and at the moment marriage is not on the record.

Personal experience, I would say no I had a dreadful marriage and it affected me so bad that I would never do it again. But having said that I know of quite a few people who have great marriage's. Just for the record I'm not anti men just anti marriage.

Happily married for 37 years and still going strong. You have to be prepared to give and take

I think you know when it is right, so if your friend( or whoever it is) knows it feels right, then go for it. I've been married 14 years. Best thing I ever did.

36 years and counting and better than I dreamed!
The only way I can see it happening is to include Jesus in the center. Otherwise each is far too selfish.
That the way I see it anyway!
