Who here is married?

Not married,much to my mothers chagrin.

Mrs. Dobalina and I will have been married for 7 years this June, still going strong. We're not without our occasional quibbles, but the sex is still hot and we always have a lot of fun together. Good communication is always the key to a successful relationship and this has certainly served us pretty well. It also helps that we both get on with the in-laws.

Recently we've entered "baby" phase of our marriage, not that we're about to have one, but that seemingly everyone around my wife is (friends, coworkers, facebook 'friends') and it obviously weighs on the female mind in ways I can't begin to appreciate. Like any huge, irreversible decision I'm quite ambivalent about it, though I do realize that since we're both in our early (approaching mid) thirties that the time is nigh.

Been married for many years (probably longer than most of you have been alive) with two kids (boy & girl).

Never cheated because I wouldn't want it done to me and couldn't live with the guilt.

Sometimes it's rough, but then so is being single. For me it works because I have many interests in life and don't have time to devote trying to pick up women, etc. It also helps that my wife is a musician and computer nerd who understands my interests and allows me to pursue them. (Although she hates electronic music and Bjork!)

16+ years now... yeah.

you married yet, yeggers?

Pretty much for the past three years.

This thread is lovely. We're all very happily married and very loved up with our wonderful partners. Which is great.

Now come on, there's got to be one or two out there who think 'hmmmmm, she was great but she's let herself go', or else do I just have a bunch of bastards for friends? I wanna hear from the ones who communicate only through notes handed to the kids and the like.

Will be 4 years this July. I never went into marriage thinking that it would be 'perfect' so its been and continues to be pretty awesome because we expect the occasional bump in the road and handle them well. We never go to bed mad at each other, so issues are always resolved quite promptly. Fortunately our relationship seems to be defined by arguing over the little stuff and handling the rest like the fucking Wonder Twins. We argue more about what kind of coffee to get or where to eat dinner than anything else. I also can't imagine where I would be personally right now without her as she is the one thing that has kept me sane through watching my Dad get checkmated by Cancer. Its times like those that I really realize how much it must suck to be alone. There is something special about having someone who understands you on such a deep level and knowing you always have someone on your team.

Never go to bed on an argument? We went a whole week without talking a few years back! I was partying pretty hard...and with the wife cheating friends too, so think she was pretty upset. Think I went through a stage where I wanted to have a second chance at the feckless youth I missed because I was going out with her. Copped on after that.

marriage is hell, it has completely sucked out my will to live. the sex is amazing when i get it though.

I'll be lucky if I get someone who puts up with my bullshit and doesnt make me put up with much more. In the meantime im going to fuck everything that moves.

You were the only one I could think of when he was asking if there was some one who wasn't happy with their marriage. Didn't want to bring it up though.

The gf and I just had our 6 year anniversary today... fuck.

I will probably never have kids or get married mainly cause I'm abstinent by choice

it should be locked immediately.

Engaged, date set for October 23rd. We've been together since 05' and living together for almost 2 years.

I tried "Living together" once. One day i saw her take a shit , i ended the relationship the next day . I promised myself to never ever go through that situation again (SO , no marriage for me , thank you anyways)

this is all sorts of wrong.

married for 6 months, together for about 5. although for the past 2 years we've been living 4 hours apart because she is still in school and this was the closest job i could find.

the way i see it is, i am so lucky that i found someone whom i find attractive, and i can talk to and have great conversations with (i know it sounds cliche but it is important). after talking to so many "um, like, yeah whatever, and stuff" chicks, i wonder how long it would take me to blow my brains out if i was married to one of them.

Yeah. Some things should remain a mystery alright.
