[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is why there are marriage vows. Because it gets really, really hard.[/quote]

But life is short so if you are miserable, how long should you stay? I mean, why waste your life with someone who doesn't make you happy or bring out the best in you?[/quote]

Well here is the complicated part...in some long term marriages you can feel miserable for...well, years unfortunately. It happens. Really just run down from life... Especially in your forties and fifties. We have had about 5 very hard years in our 25 year history. That's 80% of the time, it was good....still those years were painful and it was hard and not very pretty, like the marriage album. This is marriage...Now (with help) we are at a great time, but nothing will beat the early days, pre kids, when we mostly ate out, laughed and had a lot of intense sex . Deep down, you know if you need to leave. If you don't know, that means don't go yet i think. Work on it. Hope it improves for you soon...just trying to say you are not alone and if you can save it, try to. It can be worth it. I spent years fantasizing I would go...now I realize I am not likely going anywhere. It feels good to have come through bad times together. It can make you stronger..[/quote]

We just came out of hard times and the sex is more intense and deep and hot —24 years in.

Intimacy is even deeper.  [/quote]

For us too, yes. I think this often is not talked about. [/quote]
