Goddamn, this is fricking pathetic.
How the frick does this shite have 49 upvotes? Seriously, is 90% of the OT suicidal?

Love is a choice and most resort to only choosing it if they feel like the relationship is 50:50. If you want it to work your goal should always be giving 100%. You’ll fall short, and that’s ok. Sometimes you’ll give more and sometimes you’ll give less. But as long as there’s always a give and take, the love can and will prevail - most of the time.

14 years into our marriage and I couldn’t be happier. We have 2 beautiful girls and we all enjoy each other’s company. We don’t like spending time apart from each other.
I see threads like this all the time and I can’t understand why so many couples are so miserable. It’s actually kinda saddening that that many couples can’t get along and work things out. Many I got lucky with my wife. It takes work, patience, sacrifice, and love to make a marriage work.

Good for you baw. People who marry more than once have low intelligence

I'm divorced. Never to be married again. My girlfriend of 4 years is the best thing ever. Not the most beautiful girl I've dated. But the best person. It's a tricky game and I've been on the other side. But there are good people out there. If you're a good person.

Most folks get married young and folks change. What is important in your twenties is not really that important. $$$ (or lack of it) becomes an issue. Most chicks want the hunk and then realize lil jimmy the loser from high school drives a phantom. Now they want lil jimmy

God damn man. Why’d you marry in the first place

Most of the time we are happy. We are likely going to be empty nesters in 3.5 years so that will be an interesting change for us.
The wife and I just became empty nesters this past summer and so far so good but we are probably still in the adjustment period. It's definitely different

With all the talk of moving the goalposts around here I give you the specimen that is American Women. When will we be enough for them!?

In the post abt the Splenda stuff, I stated some of you are in horrible marriages... this thread is even worse. WTF, how are so many this disgruntled... How did you choose a spouse so poorly?

We just have one left at home and she's a teenager that stays in her room most of the time these days and doesn't hang out with us much anyway. Maybe it won't be that different

I'd say that's pretty unlikely for us. We genuinely still enjoy each other's company and get along well and spend a lot of time together. But it will be odd not having kids in the house.
My youngest son went off to college when we were in our early fifties. I remember thinking, what do I do with the rest of my life.
I met my wife on a blind date when I had about a year left in the Navy. We dated five months, were married, and have been together almost fifty four years.
Like you and yours, we still enjoy each others company.
Like others in the thread, we marvel at the number of folks we have known who have had miserable lives and broken marriages.
Life is a lottery. I got a winning ticket.

You sound bitter. And I must be dumber than a pile of rocks.
Divorced #1. Second wife died tragically after a few years and lo and behold I remarried again 15 years later.
Difference is unlike some in this thread I am not suicidal and seem to be one of the few that actually loves my wife and consider her my friend and not just a marriage partner.

Unfortunately I’m not a Hallmark Channel guy. If I’d owned a ski resort, or a bookstore or a dog rescue facility I’d be that guy. I’m not that guy.

My first marriage was an effing nightmare. Bitch was mean and crazy dysfunctional.
Second marriage (16 years) is just the opposite. My wife is an amazing woman. She makes me want to be a better man. I'd step in front a a train for her. The first one however is lucky I didn't push her in front of a train.
