I have personally been married 4 times. The first 2 were real jerks. The 3rd one was like having another kids to raise. The one I am married to now is a good guy. I have been married to him for 15 years. He is going through what he calls a selfish stage right now but I am sure he will get over it. He has been very supportive, honest, loving and faithful. This is something all the others lacked. Ex - specially the faithfulness. I though my failed marriages were my fault until I got with my husband now.
If you have been married more than once and are looking do not give up the right one is out there some were.

Never been married. Been living with my lady for about 7 or 8 years. We've been in each others lives almost constantly for the last 18 years and she's still a total riot: we laugh every day and every day's like new. Couldn't ask for more.

Just can't afford to get married, actually. A piece of paper won't change anything but we'll do it one day.

I am currently married to my first and only husband. I've never been divorced, nor do I plan on it, although I imagine that no one ever plans on this sort of thing. I certainly hope that I don't have to go down that road. And I certainly plan on doing what I can so that my husband and I don't have to. I do have to admit that I do feel a little sad for those who do go through divorce. It's not always pleasant to see a marriage end in that way, but that's the way life is, sometimes, I suppose.

Divorce is sad. Even though I am the one that wanted mine it still made me feel sad. It is also very hard on children.

No Madam, I never been married, and I want to get married, but on my last relationship, it wasn't work out for me though. She was more into the money part, than my part. So, that just not for me. We go separated way. Even though I want to meet a right girl, it seems that fate didn't want me to meet the right ones though. I was disappointed and frustrated too.

Some people are like that. It is all about material things which to me is not good. Do not give up hope it will happen when you least expected it.
Good Luck

I am married only once and still married with the same man. I am happy that we are sharing life together for 19 years and was blessed with a daughter. I am happy I met him when he's ready to settle down and getting serious with life. He was my first boyfriend and I am glad that I am his last girlfriend!

That is nice to hear. You are very lucky and so is he. So many marriages in up in divorces now a days. Some are legit but some are do to people giving up to easily. I marriage needs work on both parts. I never would have divorce the first time if my husband had not started cheating and beating on me. I still loved him when we divorced.

I'm currently in my first marriage. Though I'm not sure how much longer I will be in it. We married young, and I'm not sure if that is part of what went wrong or not. We had three kids within the first 6 years of our marriage so that added to the strain. Then we grew distance and both did something to mess it up. Now all we do is fight and he is constantly obsessing over the thought of me cheating although I never did. If he'd spend have that energy on trying to work with me to fix things, it might be different. If we do divorce I don't think I'll ever marry again.

Divorce is hard on children but sometime the fighting is even harder. Hopefully you will be able to work things out. If not do not give up there is that right person out there for you.

I was married once before and for a very long time. We divorce and did not seem me getting involved with anyone but as life as we know it, I have been living with my boyfriend now for almost 7 years and though marriage is not something we are thinking about we do live as a committed couple.
He certainly has change my entire outlook on love as he and I are very happy, in love as if it were day one.
Sounds like you too have a good husband, wishing you all the best and sometimes it does take several tries, until one ends up with the one.

I have been married once and believe me thats enough, no let me correct that, thats too much. I was married 17 years and she took everything, and I mean everything. So, I will never trust anyone else. It's a shame, because the woman I am with now is the one I should have married back then, she will suffer my wrath. Although I am not mean. But she will never have the entire me, if that makes any sense.

I am sorry to hear that. I was not that way. I took what I came into the marriage and they rest we divided up equally. I honestly think you should give this other woman a chance if she makes you happy. Have a pre - nup drawn up.
Thanks for your post.

Oh you've been married many times I've only once and am still with her ??husband.
I hope you continue to be so.
I think everything depends on our relationship and know no family without problems but these problems have solutions, so sometimes you have to compromise.
However, I hope that life is easy and only with this person because I really love it.
Have a nice day!

Hello emilyn1997,
I have been married only once and happily living with my wife & kids from last 6 years.It takes lot of compromises,responsibilities you have to do to keep your relation good & healthy.When i say compromise then i mean it as for sometimes for bad things also you have to sat good to keep your partner happy.Though comprise should be from both sides as one cannot compromise always.
There should always be faith & loyalty in the relations otherwise it won't go too long. May be you understand all these things.And now finally you have got the loving husband sometimes we tend to find our match with so difficulty but thats for sure GOD always make the match for all us but it takes time for us to find him/her out.

Just stay open, honest and faithful to each other and things should work out. Keep the communication open. Try and do things to keep the relationship fresh. Try not to get in a rut.
Good Luck
