I guess I didn’t give my marriage stats. 27.5 years and we are blissfully happy. We don’t argue, we really don’t even gripe. We laugh non stop, even through bad stuff. We spoil each other rotten and we’ve raised 4 well adjusted happy kids.
We knew each other for 3 weeks before we got married at 21 years old. We broke every single rule (we were flat broke, didn’t know each other from Adam, and did it on a whim) and got unbelievably lucky. Neither of us have a selfish bone in our body and we both had traumatic childhoods and were determined to do better in our lives and with our children. I think that has fueled a lot of our marital success.
Well that plus she’s just freaking awesome. She makes it easy (me not so much).
I shouldn't, but I will.Married 43 years today, actually.
If you still love each other, talk it out or go to marriage counseling -- it won't get better on its own.From talking with my circle of friends, I find the results of the poll thus far a bit surprising (with a decent sample size). Most of us are outside of the truly "happily married" crowd. To be honest, I totally should be in that number....because of so many things "going for us", but currently we are not. Interestingly enough, our baby just moved out - off to college. This is uncharted territory. Our kids, in my opinion, are a huge reason we made it this far....over 20 years.
Awesome!Married 43 years today, actually.
