Married people (happy or unhappy)
I'm engaged and I'm under the impression that people change and become unhappy when they get married. Married people only please. Are you happy you are married or not?

I am happy to be married, but it isn't all lovey-dovey bull**** all the time. You need to think of it as a second job almost.

Not as happy. Was better before. Not fully unhappy, but if I had to choose I pick un.. People change when they get married. I wished I could have stayed engaged longer. That was the best. Commitment without change.

I lived with my wife for about two years before we got married I definetly recommend this. If you can do that not kill eachother and still are in love with each other you got it made. Im happy

Been married for 14 years and each year my marriage keeps on getting better. I don't know how but I've enjoyed every minute of it (even the hard times). I love my wife ... I couldn't imagine life without her.

I agree, i lived with my wife for 5 years before we married, i don't think anyone should marry without spending some substantial time living with their partner first.

I'm not married, but I was wondering if people who answer the OP's post could say how long they were with their partners before they got married, and if they lived together beforehand?
I think that would shed a lot more light on how things may have changed for you pre and post marriage.

sorr to hear that...maybe you guys got married too young...people change alot in their 20's...especially early 20's. hope for the best for you
i have been married 7 years and it has been very good. i think it helps if you and your wife are best friends. i enjoy being around my wife and we like to do a lot of the same things. marriage is work though, if you don't work at it you will not grow and if you do not grow you will become stale and unhappy.

Comments are welcomed. Please add how long you have been maried, time with before, and time lived with before. It is like someone posting to a lose fat thread with no back ground info.

could not be happier
married to a Eastern European Beauty, NO PICS, dont even think about it Serious
she cooks for me better than any chef, every day at least 2 meals, prepares my lunch, my shakes, washes my clothes, cleans the house daily, dishes everything, takes care of my kid and me. Has an education, makes six figures.
Yes Im living a dream come true and she prides her self the most at losing her virginity to me. And yes she is gorgeous and really intelligent, I can talk to her about politics, science, economics and many times she knows more than me
what did I do to deserve her, I have no idea. I got lucky and that is why she will have anything she wants as long as Im alive.
Yes Im trully really happy.

thats awesome man.
I will probably marry my gf. Been together for about 4 years and lived together for 2. She cooks for me, cleans for me, and does my laundry and I enjoy every minute of time spent with her. She also puts up with me leaving every so often for deployments and such. Which is a big factor in the Navy.

I have been married for a year and a half, and it has been great, we lived together first for like 3 years. It can be hard at times but you work through it and that is what makes the relationship stronger.

I wanted to take my ex-fiance to Hong Kong and kill her, but instead I broke up with her and ebay'd the ring. Hi Five!

Congrats bro. That's why I've said before, I'm going to go to my home country to find a wife (yes eastern european)
I'm tired of American women saying they don't have to clean, cook or do anything because they have a stick shoved so far up their ass (I said most not all). European women don't do it because they have to...they do it because they like to please their man and it's how they were brought up.

na that is just stereo typing, their Americanized now, just talk with my german wife
to the OP, married 11 years, known her for 2 years prior to marriage. Happy sometimes, depressed sometimes and not sexually satisfied....other than that marriage is good.... I would honestly recommend a root canal before marriage, partners change night and day when the ring goes on the finger....LOL

I ve been married for 2 years now and absolutely love it. And i have a 1yr old son too, which only makes things better. My wife stays at home with my son, but runs a dayhome. gets a ton of cash and is able to still spend the much needed quality time with my son thru the day.

We've been married over four years now, and I'm very happy. We dated for a little over two years, and never lived together before marriage. We have an almost two year old boy now, and he rocks.
