[quote=Anonymous]I will say this about marriage. It's a life. And life isn't necessarily romantic all the time. It's difficult, boring, stressful, fun, exciting, interesting. Marriage is so much more than romantic life, which I think a lot of people focus on to their own detriment. You don't need butterflies all the time if you are married to someone who respects you, is an active partner and parent, and is kind. I do think that marriage and kids have aged me 10 years. It's a major toll. But I am the primary support person in my family (breadwinner, default parent, etc.). I enjoy my spouse and have really enjoyed watching them slowly grow. But growth is painful and requires patience and keeping a long view. If I didn't take the long view, I don't think we'd make it. That said, if I become a widow, that's it for me. I will never, ever intertwine my life in such a deep way with another person. [/quote]
