Does anyone actually like being married?

I long for my days as a single ski bum... cry

Your wife did until she sees this thread.

I'll let you know after June 14th

After 32 years - I damn well better like it. huh

Yes I married my best friend and I love him more today than when we first got married. )

I'm not saying that I don't love my wife. It just seems that life would be much more fun if I never took "the plunge".

but you're right, I won't let her see this.

I don't see whats the difference between marriage and what I am in now, I have been living with this girl for 4 years -- so yeah, I think I will enjoy our marriage.

19 years on the 17th (St. Patty's Day!), and I'm very happy. I can't imagine NOT being married to her.

i like being married to all three of my wives.

-dan

You don't feel that you don't have freedom?

Freedom? I have all the freedom I want or need.

If you mean can I do whatever I want, whenever I want, at any cost, with no regard for her feelings, then no. But marriage (and certainly parenthood) isn't for selfish people, which is precisely what that sort of attitude would be.

Of course if either of your are so overbearing that you lineverli give the other person any space or freedom when they need it, then that's bad too.

The trick with marriage is finding balance. It's a team effort, and if either of you are the least bit narcissistic, selfish, or inflexible, then it's probably doomed to failure. Or a life of misery.

I got lucky on my first try. I happened to be my wife's second try, however. )

I think I am having a mid-life crisis but I am only 33...

Ive been with my girl 6+ years and im scared of commitment (

Things always seem greener. If you became single tomorrow, you would probably enjoy it for a time, but in the long run you would get lonely and tired and there would be a void in your life that being single would not be able to fill. Think of all the positives, because you can really get bogged down with all the negatives.

I'm coming up on 20 years this year. There's been good and there's been bad, but it sure beats growing old alone. But if you do have a bit of narcissism, then that's something that needs to be dealt with.

Wow..... I never get this deep on a topic.

I feel so young (

I feel so young )

I love being married...going on 14 yrs this Aug and I can't imagine not being married to my husband. Of course, I would have answered differently a couple of years ago. I was bored with my "perfect" life as a stay-at-home-mom and housewife. I still loved him, just wasn't "in love" with him. Long story short, we worked through it and I fell back in love. I'm sure we'll have more ups and downs, but that's what marriage is. Wouldn't trade it for anything!

I have been married for 12 years and I still love my husband very much. I can't imagine my life without him or our two children. Have I always liked him - hell no, but you work through the bad times and enjoy the good times.

If you would like to swap places with me, I'd gladly do it. See I'm disabled & unable to get out very much. I haven't had a girlfriend, a date, or anything else in almost 11 years. I have no sympathy for those married people that go through a mid-life crisis. Be thankful for what ya got because it could all be taken away.

Every time you mention that it makes me sad. I sincerely hope some great things are ahead of you in your future. Don't lose hope. )

Very happily married, wouldn't change it for anything.

It will be 3 years marriage for on 04/20 ;) ~ I've been with him for 8 years. We've been through many ups n downs. Yes there was time I wanted to give up but we made it through. N now, we still going strong. D

Nope, because when my Lions when it will almost certainly be through some sort of cheating, so the win would be tainted and probably get revoked anyways (

I love being married. The only time I really wished that I was single was when my wife was pregnant. She was the meanest person I knew during her pregnancy.
