Just wondering how many people are happy in their marriage/relationships.

Xmas tends to be a bit stressful and lots of things can go wrong at home base ;)

Feel free to discuss your personal issues at great lengths here :D

Me and my GF are as good as ever. on the 17th we've been together for 3 years!
 
Congrats!!!

I guess I should say that I'm quite happy with my BF. I haven't had any thoughts of "offing" him, so things are good :D
 
OK. I don't believe anybody has told me the truth yet.

You guys are no fun at all :D

I'm not 100% happy with the BF right now. He said that we were going to spend New Year's Eve together, just the two of us, and that we were going to go to LA to see DJ Abel.

That's not happening now. Instead, all the plans have changed because he has a new agenda.

He owes me BIG TIME :D
 
I have been married 25 years, not counting the 2 (1/2) years we dated. I gave my heart to this woman, from the day we met, and its unconditional. Our love has grown and matured, and I love this woman more than I could express in words. I have no doubt she feels the same way. She expresses it everyday, without even having to say one word.

I would literally give my life for her, and will devote the rest of my life in providing for her, when the day comes when her biological problems exceeds her inner strength, is the day I pick up the pieces and be her strength. The only way, I can do this, is to properly take care of myself, and for this, I will give the gift she definitely deserves, and show her children, what loving one another can do.

Honestly, I have had one woman, in 25+ years. Never have cheated on her, no will I ever. Even when the day comes, we can not have sex, it wouldn't even enter my mind. I could never dishonor her (or myself) in that way.

Can I say, we happy with each other all the time, "uh, no!", LOL. :) Especially when it came to our opinion on raising children; especially the teen years. But, we learned, communicated, adapted well, and learned to mediate our differences, and respected our position as parents.


Trust me. Love is more than skin deep.


Best wishes

Chillen

Okay, I'll be the only honest one....

:D kidding, I'm joining the ranks, in honesty!

sorry I have to be as "boring" as you feel the others are ILM! I love my husband to pieces! My heart still skips a beat when he comes into the room. I look for ways all day to express my "love language" to him and I look forward to many more happy years! We got married young (19) and started having kids (and kids...and kids) after only a year of marriage so things have not ALWAYS been smooth sailing, but the hard times have strengthened us, matured us and brought us closer than ever! I'd do anything for that man.
 
Sparrow, I'm not really disappointed ;) When I read yours and Chillen's posts, they made me feel warm inside. It's nice to know that there are people in the world that truly love their spouses.

We have a 50% divorce rate here and I don't know many people that are very happy. It comes with the territory: 60-80 hour work weeks, high stress levels, brutal business competition -- it wears thin on people and when they bring the stress and BS home, the relationships will erode because nobody has the energy to save them.
 
I am happy in my relationship. My wife and I have been together for close to 12 years. She keeps me level headed and happy.

That and she is pretty much the only reason I am not on a murderous rampage right now. :violent::newangel::action8:
 
I'm not even voting on this one right now. Maybe one of the choices should have been " I don't know exactly wtf is going on right now ". Better to laugh at it than get down about the whole situation. We've got a lot to work out together and discover ourselves again. We've both given up so much to make things work and through the years have kind of lost our identity. So, it's kind of a rebirth of us both now. We'll decide where it goes from here in the fairly near future. Either way it's been a good growing/learning experience for both of us. We've got to learn to let the past go and move ahead with a new future if that can happen.

We are spending Christmas eve together with the kids. Opening gifts as a family etc. So, maybe this will be a partial rekindling of the relationship.

There ya go for some truthfulness. Not much fun, but that's the way it is right now. Glad to see everyone doing so well. Hopefully I can enjoy in the wedded bliss with you soon!
 
What Chillen said, but with 1/3 less passion. I'm not sure I can muster that kind of emotion. Good for you, though, Chillen. I'm on year 1 and hope I feel the same way in 24.
 
Well anyone who reads my posts knows how much I can't wait to see my fiance again! :D For those missing out on that story, he's in the army and has been out of state for training since August. For two months we could only communicate by letters, then I saw him for one day in October, and as of November we've been able to use phones and webcams (much better than letters...). Now he gets almost 2 weeks off for Christmas and he'll be here next Friday! Wheee! :D By our logic, the worst is past and if we can survive two months of just letter writing we should be able to get through anything. His recruiter actually told him most relationships end when while someone is gone for training (not sure if that's true or if he was just preparing him for the worst, but that's a pretty depressing thing to say).

So we're still doing great, wedding plans are going well (got my dress, my bridesmaids dresses, the invitations, and we have cake tastings scheduled!), and we are looking forward to spending Christmas dividing are time between our two families who luckily only live a couple of hours apart :p Ah holiday craziness.
 
Good to hear, Evo :D

Mreik is a slack @ss when it comes to household chores, but you knew that going into the relationship. Maybe you need to hire a housekeeper and give Mreik a break :p

Plus that would give you two more two-gether time ;)
 
the BF and i are great! He likes to cuddle and no complaining..in fact he doesn't say a word..nada...zilch!
