re: Is anyone else happily married to someone you love and generally happy in life?

What is happily married, what is love? Everyone’s answer may be different, but after 32 years, I guess we are probably somewhere in the average, and I couldn’t have found a better mother for my children.

My wife is the love of my life, my soulmate.
Doesn't mean things are perfect. We fight sometimes, we are constantly working on communication. But I wouldn't have anyone else. Love brought us together, and we work to keep it.

That's a pretty slick way to put it...
On topic.. I'm happily married for more than 32 years and reasonably happy in life.

It's true at least in the friends I've seen it. They cannot break those apron strings that tie the wife to their family. I don't know if it's exclusive to South Louisiana but it sure seems like it is.

Love my wife and love my child. Couldn’t imagine any other life

It's not Louisiana that keeps us here, it's having a huge circle of friends and relatives, a full social life, all of my client base. We could move closer to our children, they're both are out of state, but at 72, we'd likely just be in their hair.

Yes

Happily married here with the first child on the way
We have 55 acres of farmland and forest
I work remotely for a salary, and take time to work the land too
Life is perfect

Yeah. My wife is amazing. it's great

I absolutely love my wife and I love my life.
I don't have a lot of money, and I'd probably be a considered an OT poor. I'm still working hard to advance my career
But all things considered, I'm pretty content in my life.

Married 27 and 1/2 years. 3 daughters. Been a lot of work, and there have been some really tough times, but stuck with it and still happy together.

Yes and Yes - even dealing with some serious family issues - still very happy -
And the wifey drives me nuts often and vice versa - but we love our kids and our rule is we always hang out together in the same room … no seperate tv watching and it seems to work for us

Extremely happy living life with my wife. Been married 5 years after being together for 5 before that. Shes my best friend. Her family is incredible. Currently going thru our second round of IVF which has been the only struggle we've had thus far. We tried for kids for 2 years and then 1 round of IVF that didnt work. Will be finding out if second round works and we will be blessed with a child in a few weeks. Having to be there for her emotionally the past few years has definitely made us stronger. But I love my life and i love my wife and understand how blessed I am no matter what happens.

Lol all of the top 5 percenters commenting. I don’t know a single marriage that isn’t in the shitter. I’m glad for y’all but this thread is not even close to an accurate representation of how marriage typically is.
Posted on 8/24/22 at 9:41 am to Nguyener
I'm hoping to be soon. I live with my gf of almsost two years and I knew her for two years before that. Are there some frustrating times, sure, but we never really argue or fight.

Seems like a reflection of your social group.
As of yet, none of my close friends group have been divorced and we are all pushing 10-15 years of marriage now.
