[quote=Anonymous][b]How long have you been married?[/b] Married for 20 years; truly happy.  We enjoy each other's company, have a great sex life, and just generally like the other person for who they are.

[b]Do you have kids and do you think that adds or detracts from your happiness as a married couple? [/b]  We have three teens.  I wouldn't want to parent with anyone else.  He was always the better parent to our kids when they were young.  I think we are about equal now, but we rely on each other to actively parent every day.

[b]Do you think it's mostly luck that you're happy together or effort or both?[/b]  Neither?  We chose each other because we are happier together.  In 20 years I think we've only had one real tough spot, and that was after my husband suffered a TBI from an accident.  Other than that, it's like I found my other half.  I don't have to force it, or create a date night, or schedule intimacy (physical or emotional).  The spark is just there.  If anything we foster it by taking care of the other person, but that doesn't generally take a [i]conscious[/i] effort.  It's just part of who we are as people, and as a couple. [/quote]
