Right now Im separated but to think back,in some ways I was happy then when I got married because of my son.But if you will ask me if I was happy having a husband?No I was not because ex doesnt know how to treat his wife properly.So I was unhappy and got out of the marriage,something that I should have done a long time ago.Being with him only made me feel bad about myself.I feel great now that I am separated from him.

That is a simple question to answer it depends on who you marry. If it is a great guy who loves you like mad than yes. If it is the opposite then no.

because i was married young (18), i left from home to my husband. That was over 26 years ago, so i really don't know any different! But i will say that I love my marriage and family, and could not imagine my life without either. Being married has not always been easy, and sometimes we struggled with issues like many couples do, but if you love that person, you just make it work out. Its not often two people can be happy for a lifetime anymore, and i find that sad. when you do get married, you should really know that this is it. Pretend that there is no such thing as divorce, and love eachother no matter what.. that is what makes you stay together. If everyone really took their vows as they recited them... there would be no divorce! Your happiness depends on how you want to make yourself happy! Life is not meant to be alone. So if your lucky enough to find your soul mate,, then congratulations!

Life ..it was much better during pre-marital days. After marriage, problems come one after the other and you are reduced to nothingness.

Much happier after the marriage. We share so many things in common that its hard to imagine not being together. I think for us, we never tried to be something we weren't and we knew each others families for 8 years before we even dated. There wasn't anything to hide. Because we set some ground rules before marriage and were financially stable, there wasn't any of the normal fears many couples have when they first get married (money, job security, family acceptance, etc). Basically, we can count on and focus on each other.
