Are you married? About to be married? Or do you prefer to just live with your partner?

My fiance will be getting married May of 2010 - we've been together since 2004. I love the idea of being married, but we've been content (no rushed feelings about jumping into marriage) with how things are going in our relationship. It's a comfortable pace. :0)

I am happily married to a wonderful man that I married 14 years ago. We have two beautiful children and he has a son from his first marriage. Our girls are who we have fought to live for and he has been and will continue to be a great dad to the girls. I can't imagine my life without him and I am glad that we got married when we did.

I've been married and divorced 3 times...
I've been with my current boyfriend for a total of about 5 years. We tried living together at one point and I ended up hating him.
He was talking about buying a house for us...then ended up buying one with his sister...and his mother and another friend are moving in with them there. I guess that leaves me out, but I'm not sure I would want to live with him again anyway.
He talked about getting married too in the past year but I'm guessing he's decided against that....and I'm not about to ask!

I am married, but sometimes I don't really know why I STAY married. Life seemed so much more simple when I was single...

yes i am married and i am happy in my married life. we have got arranged marriage ,which my parents and his parents selects match and discussions will go on ,on both sides,about his financial status,his job and his property and her sides properties etc. if both sides agreed all things,we can get marriage in india.as i am indian ,we can see many arranged marriages , in india ,that to our parents will select our partner ,we won;t select ourselves .
parents see matches with a mediater or with a relative and fix marriage.
by these arrange marraiges,in india most marraiges are successful for long life .
and i have also got this arrange marraige,which my parents see for me and their decision is good and my marraige was success upto now .after 12 years of my marriage,now i am happy in my life, and i agree with indian arranged marraiges,like in no other country,here in india most of the people respect each other in their married life and happy with it for many years or lifelong than other country people .we don;t go for second marraige and sometimes adjust with the relation we have now.

I am married. I've been married for nine years now. We will celebrate our tenth anniversary this December. We were together for a year and two months when we got married. I find it very comforting and nice to be able to have someone by my side and eternally commited to me, I think that I have always needed this connection and luckily, I found someone with whom I could have this with. We are actually going to renew our Wedding vows this year because we didn't have a big thing the first time. We just went to a Magistrate's office. That was ok, but I feel that we deprived our family of seeing our marriage happen, so now they will get to see too!

Yes, I am married. I have been married to the same man for almost 19 years. Our anniversary is next month. We dated for 4 years before we got married, but we were young and wanted to finish college before getting married, I hope to be married for as long as we both shall live.

Yes I'm married, it almost five months already :)
I think, marriage is the best part of my life. Now, I enjoy long distance relationship but we still communicate each other. Of course I want to live with him, have children, do some job, go out to have some fresh air, and so on. I think that married is an engagement, not only between me and my husband but also our family and our God. I also think that a family will be good to raising our children :D
