Does anyone read some of this stuff and just crindge? Makes me afraid for the future of the holy union that is marriage. Does anyone have anything positive to say about being married, or is anyone proud to be faithful? I know I am.

I've been married for twelve wonderful years to the greatest person I've ever met. She hates how she looks, but I tell her everyday that she's absolutely beautiful and I sincerely mean it. I don't even want to think of where I would be in life without her encouragement and support, getting married was easily the best decision I've ever made. And yes, I'm very proud that I'm faithful to her, she deserves it! I don't even watch porn like so many people I know do because I can't imagine wasting my time with that when I have the woman of my dreams with me every night.
I hope this helps your outlook a little bit, thank you for starting a positive communication here!
(Love you, "Fielga") :)

I think we all have our relationship issues some worse than others. Nut all I can do is be the best person I can be. I am very proud to be a faithful and devoted wife and mother. I work very hard at it. I put all my effort into a beautiful home, a wonder family life and a exciting personal life with my husband.
I think some people just don't see it as a priority and think they can have their cake and eat it too, but when things go wrong they want and need the attention of the pease feel sorry for me. OR my personal favorite they blame their past for their current and future mistakes!
It worries me when I read some of this stuff because that could be my neighors or friends.

For sure. It's difficult to read the hurts that people are going through on this site. I was with a lady that I loved with all my heart. It was the first time in my life that I totally let someone inside of my walls. I would bring her flowers all the time. I would walk by a women's clothing store and see something there that I thought she would like and go and buy it for her. I would have coffee ready for her every morning when she got up. I would do her laundry, wash dishes, vacuum etc. She was my whole life...every breath I took. She cheated on me and I would have done anything to keep us together. When I tried talking to her all she ever said was " you treated me good.. there's nothing I can say ". She was totally against drugs and now she's with a heavy drinker and drug user. Don't understand that! To this day if she needed my last breath so she might live.. she could have it. It's been 4 years since we split and I still think of her every day. I never cheated on her in mind or body in the 12 years we were together. That I am very proud of. When I woke up beside her every morning, that was all I needed to make me happy. Wish she felt the same.

I agree, totally blows me away how much I have read on here about cheating, divorce, separation, not being happy in the marriage, thinking of leaving, not sure if spouse is cheating, happily married, but can't stop thinking about someone else and so on. It is truly sad, marriage is not easy and it takes time and work to make a good marriage. I love my husband very much and couldn't imagine life without him, he's a great father and husband, we have had our up's and down's, but that is what has made us stronger. I am proud that I am faithful. Don't be afraid, every ones circumstances on here are different. Life is what you make of it and just believe in your marriage. It is nice to know that there are people out there who are happily married and faithful. Good for you!

My husband and I have one of those marriages everyone envies. We never argue and he is the most thoughtful, gentle, kind, considerate, loving person I know. I tell him constantly what a wonderful person he is. We are head over heels in love. I was 33 and he was 32 when we met, and neither of us had been married before. He dated other women, but I'm his first love. He said he thought he would never meet the right women. He even had a vasectomy to avoid having children with his ex. The only sad part is now he does want to have children, because he loves me so much our relationship made him feel that way for the first time in his life. Unfortunately reverse vasectomies don't guarantee results. Even if we never have children, I still wouldn't change my mind about being with him. Our relationship is perfect in every other way.

I'm happily married. I married my best friend 7 years ago. I've been 100% faithful through my entire marriage and will continue to be. I'm very proud of that. I know my husband has been faithful too. Our friends are envious of our relationship. It is sad to see such preventable problems that married people face everyday, like infidelity. If you really love someone, and I mean jumping off a cliff with them kind of love, then you would never even think about hurting them.
I think that marriage is beautiful if both people are truly committed. We see our children as God's gift of our love for one another. You make love to make babies and babies are to be loved. It is a never-ending cycle of love. But it all starts with two people really in love.

I am married 3 years and together for 7 and I have never wanted another woman. Marriage is not easy, you need to work at it. Most people don't get that. I already know I am with my wife forever, why would I screw up a lifetime of happiness for a few minutes of sex? I had my crazy fun before I was with her.

This is why marriage should not be taken so lightly and rushed into. It is not depressing when you have taken the time to get to know somebody and have discussed and are in agreement on the issues that will affect your life together.
Not everyone cheats and not all marriages are doomed to divorce. I wouldn't let all of this sour me on the idea of marriage - I would simply make sure I took the time to get to know the person I planned to spend the rest of my life with.

Yep, sure do. I believe marriage is one of the most wonderfull places to be when both parties are committed to it. If you can not honour the marriage vows then you were not mature enough to get married. It is unfortunate this knowledge only occurs after the vows and promises of lifetime together are made.
Good for you being happy and committed to your marriage and I wish you all the very best for it to continue well into old age.

Marriage is sharing the good,bad and ugly. Time will be good and time will be bad, but both must resolve to find the right answer to all. Raising children to be responsible adults means you have both done a terrific job in raising a child. In return they will love you and thank you for being a good parent. The next generation will have same good values as the parents.
