She not a very good cook though.
Her mom (no pics, was a State beauty pageant runner-up tho in 1959) was a naturally good cook.
My wife (no pics, won my pageant in the ‘80s) is not an intuitive cook but thought she could cook that way (like her Mom did) for decades.
Finally she has realized that she needs to slavishly follow recipes.
When she gets out of her lane, uhhhhhhhggggghhhh....
Fortunately, my palate is forgiving and it’s all good.

44 years. I was 22 and she was 21. Kinda cool to share all the life experiences and to have grown old together.

Long enough to where she doesn't have any better options.

Success only by the grace of God.
We both have our roles. Having accepted our roles, never the twain have crossed. And she never went full Iberia haircut.

We travel quite a bit, with and without the kiddos.
Sex is rare.

25 years. Dated for 3. Been with my wife for more than half my life now. She’s awesome.
Just have to work at it. It’s WAY easier now that our kids our out of the house. Like being in college again except we have money now and go to bed earlier.

And you need to know this why?

15 years on my 2nd marriage as of 12 days ago.
The secret is to find someone that will put up with your shite, whatever level that is.
Mine is extremely high and my wife is a saint.

- Hit 10 years in December
- sex about every other night at least
- financially stable
- we have our own friends we can and like to go hang out with
- we try and have at least a lunch date every week
- we pick out shows for us to watch for an hour or so together before bed
Oh and edit to add to what the guy above me said... find you a good woman that will put up with your shite... because odds are, you have a bunch of it

2 years.
We fight over petty stuff a lot but we are both aware that it's petty.
The only things I have to complain about are how she steals the covers or puts the toilet paper on wrong, things like that. Overall I'm very happy.

No. 1 "Secret to Being Married" is to NEVER do anything that you wouldnt want your spouse to do.
Run up credit card bill's
Stop and drink afterwork at a bar
Get loaded everynight
frick around on your spouse
Not being in your kids life
If you wouldnt want your wife doing shite like that than you shouldn't do it.

34 years. Dated for 3. Take a good look at her mama. There’s a hood chance she’ll turn out to look and act a lot like her (don’t tell her this!). When you’re pissed at her it’s better to slam things than say things you will regret.

Dude, no. Please. You’re missing the most magical aspect of life. I would trade every single material item and every great experience of my life just to have my 1 son. Not only that, I would never miss it.
Also, it’s way less expensive than people let on.

2 1/2 years. Everything is great, but think I'm way too early in the game to ever give out any advice.

Just passed 22 years with the Mrs.
Best advice: be willing to change to stay together.
No job, no friend, no hobby is worth losing your marriage.
Second best advice: don't get married until you are READY to get married. It ain't for sissies. It's tough, but worth the effort you put into it.
I was 37 when I tied the knot, and, believe me, I was barely ready at 37.
Advice #3: let your spouse know that even in the midst of whatever problem you're facing that you aren't going anywhere. This is especially important for wives to hear (IMHO), because they want/need that reassurance that you still love them regardless of the issue at hand.
