If yes,then what is your secret?How do you keep your partner happy?Do you always listen to each other?or is it because you two are so compatible that you both cannot disagree on anything and so no war at home.In simple words,I want to know the secret of your happiness about sharing your life together with your partner.

I am very happy and satisfied with my partner. We are almost just alike and never fight. We have tiny arguments every so often but we always resolve them. We listen to each other and are there for each other physically, emotionally, financially and we support each others dreams and goals in life. It is a wonderful feeling to be this much in love with each other.

Yes i am satisfied with my partner to a large extent and are happy together but there are instances when there are tensions among us because of his mother and sister who are always playing a spoilsport between us. We have now got things under control and are quite happy. I would be extremely happy if he decides to live without his parents but it is not coming as he is the only son and wants to care for them even when they play havoc in our life.

Ya I can understand how you must be feeling(in laws thing)because I have seen some of my friends going through the same.But,if your husband is good and also supports you in every way,then you need not get upset.He is one and only son,so I guess,he has responsibility towards them and he cannot leave them anyhow,so you be strong and I know you are a good daughter in law.Goodluck and my best wishes

I am happy and satisfied with my partner. He is very caring. Anytime I tell I need him, he is there for me. He cooks for me when I am tired. And he always brings something for me when he visits me. I take care of him as an exchange. I supports his decisions in life. I help him whenever he needs me. And I enjoy preparing delicious food for him. I love him very much.

My partner and I are so happy. We have so much in common and share the same sense of humor. We have many of the same beliefs as well.
We are open and honest with each other and have a lot of communication. If there is something we disagree about, we talk it out and resolve the issue in some way.
He respects me and I respect him and we both love and value each other very much.

Yes, I am happy and satisfied. My wife and I have been married, looking ahead to our tenth wedding anniversary in the coming year.
What is our secret? I think that arriving at expectations and understandings prior to marriage was important. Understanding who each person is - and how there are things that a person simply cannot change, and then deciding - how critical is this? My wife loves macaroni and cheese; I am not the biggest fan of macaroni and cheese. But, in spite of this, we still manage to get along. We each have our own meals on the days that she wants macaroni and cheese.
Communication is part of the secret. Being able to talk through problems. And also being able to say to the other person when you are wrong, or for them to say that they are wrong to you and then for you to forgive them and not hold it against them and to move on. It's all part of the commitment to making the relationship work. Where that commitment is not present, the relationship will not last.

if you are not happy with the one you are with right now, i think you should reassess your feelings to that person. the only time i think one will tthink he or she is not happy with the person he or she is with is if the love has withered already.
that is exactly how i felt a few months back with my ex..

Yes generally I'm happy and satisfied, but life, our life is not perfect, there are times when fight, there are times when we joke around. We cuddle and kiss at another time.
But I guess the best thing about it or us, is that simply put, we want to be together and we work hard to stay together.
We talk and plan and dream about our future, what we can do and stuff like that.
I cannot say that we are perfectly compatible or what but we try to make our relationship a priority in our life and because of that somehow we flourish

I think we are so happy because we had both been married before and were miserable. We appreciate each other and what we have and definitely learned from our mistakes!

Oh yessss...I am very happy and satisfied with my husband. In fact, he's been away for 2 years now, ( he actually worked outside the country ) but I was never tempt to get involved with another man. Well, there's a give and take relationship. We didn't meet fire with fire. He respects me as well as I do respect him.

Satisfied with my partner?Absolutely YES. Though we're not married yet but I can't afford to find another man. I don't think I can find any that understands my mood. Despite of the fights we have, the presence of love to each other is still strong. :) I guess it's just normal to have fights, but it is how you handle it. We have a lot of compatibilities. I actually reached out to his interests, and it even influence me more. But it's okay.
