I have been married since I was 17 years old. I am now 57 and a grandma of seven all soon to be teenagers. The secret to marriage is having a good relationship with the creator first, he instructs you on what you shoud do to be a successful person. He also instructs you on what qualities you should look for in a prospective husband. But the most important link is that he loves the creator too and that he listens to him with his heart and follows through with instruction. These relationships are compared to a a strong three ply cord that is woven...that is how strong your marriage can be! That's the secret to a successful marriage!

My husband and I have been married for nearly 11 years ... we were 'older' when we got married though ... he was 39, and I was 46. We are 'together forever and beyond' though and are just as happy as we were when we first 'got together' ... our 'secret' is that we were BEST FRIENDS of similar intelligence and we both had a 'common' passion ... art. My husband is an artist, and I am a writer but I studied art most of my life. We both love to talk, but we don't like talking about 'who is doing what to whom' ... we talk about everything else though, from the weather to world issues. We like the same television shows (yes, I even watch football with him sometimes) and we like the same movies. We both think of ourselves as basically 'chidren' who are in 'grown up bodies' and we have the intelligence to 'survive' under any circumstances. That may sound very 'complicated' to you so I suggest that you just TALK with people, and be a good friend with EVERYONE and you may have a 'best' friend who is female some day, and perhaps you will then be just like us ... it's FUN, but sometimes you have to make a few 'mistakes' (I have been married before) or be 'shy' about getting 'close' to a woman (my husband was a good friend, but never a 'real boyfriend' until we started going together) to make a good marriage. The 'best advice' I can give you, though, is to 'announce' to the world that you ARE NOT LOOKING FOR LOVE ... because then the love that is 'looking for you' may come when you aren't looking. (Sorry, it was just too good a pun, but it's also TRUE.)

I got married way back in January 1987 and its 2007 now still our marriage is strong and happily living together with our children. The success of our marriage is true love and giving in if discussion arises and try to explain the side when anger is not already present. You must have time to discuss things about the welfare of the family. Share the work in the house. Then make your sex life vibrant adapting new techniques. Men really needs sex and even girls. Man always feel orgasm but women don't. So as a husband ,make sure that your wife also feel orgasm but asking her what to do so that even once only in her life she can feel orgasm or true sexual happiness from you. As husband and wife never be ashamed to tell the truth about what you want in sex. Aside from responsible parents, sexual life should be priorities also in order to have successful marriage life "Till Death Do Us Part ".

Only been married a year, but here is my advice. Make sure you marry the right person. If you fight, argue whatever with someone all the time before you are married, then it isn't going to get any better when you are married. The key then is communication and trying to make each other happy. Love and try to be there for each other. We all have quirks, the key is to love the other. I was lucky I found a perfect woman.

Always have a good divorce lawyer as a friend so it will be free if something goes wrong. LOL I am just joking. To be honest make sure you are truely in love with the person you want to spend the rest of your life with. Love is where you notice that she has flaws but they don't get to you, you just look through them Don't fall for the oh I love her can't live without her lust you first feel in a relationship. It just feels right when you are ready to get married, if a woman is rushing you to get married for God sake DON"T do it only if you both feel its right.

I've been with my fiance for 4 years and we've been engaged for 7 months. I know you asked for married people, but David and I have been lving together, sharing money, sharing a checking account, and doing everything similar to married couples for 3 and a half years and the wedding is just a legal ceremony. The biggest piece of advice I can tell you is communication. We fight, alot actually. But we have found that if we can sit down like adults and discuss our problems, we work them out faster. We also have a rule that if one of us does something that bothers the other person, tell them immediately. You do not want to have your significant other resent you later for something you never even knew you did wrong. You need to be willing to work out your issues. You're potentially going to be with womeone forever, so if something they do just drives you crazy, you have to let them know before it is too late.

Been married 15 years in January and the true secret to happiness is the willingness to listen and allow one another an opportunity to breath!

Married 11 years and we are very happy. Love unconditionally, communicate, listen and think before speaking. Don't say things out of anger they will come back to bite you in the butt later. Keep dating each other after marriage keep things exciting.....
