Yes, 20 years and 2 kids. Not starting any threads because we're not on dating apps or texting any exes.

Same here, down to the 30 years. Are you us?

OP, you're right about the fact that posts here are going to be about problems and pain. Happy people don't tend to post about it on forums like this one (and if we do, we get snarky blowback about it, I've noticed!). But your'e not alone in being happily married, long-term.

23 years and the happiest we’ve ever been.

Both of our parents were married for more than 50 years too. We had good role models.

Same. Married 15 years here and our parents have all been married 40+ years. Grandparents were all very happily married too. A few divorces in our family but they all happened before having children.

DH is my person. Kids ask me who my favorite kid is and I always say DH! Divorce hasn't ever crossed our minds, we both would marry each other over and over again.

I personally believe I have a literally perfect marriage. 11 years and 3 kids in.

Very lucky, very happy.

I think I read somewhere that 25% of marriages are happy, 25% just okay, 25% annoyed, 25% bad

Yeah, DH here, and we are quite happy. Have a lot of fun, don't have many real struggles, both work hard to make each other happy and the house run smoothly, have good sex regularly.

Yep! Can't even remember the last time we fought. We're best friends and we have each others backs. It's us against the kids! lol

This makes me so happy! Even if it’s the only response I get, you made my day!

More than 35 years for me. Never really had a rough patch.

I do realize that people come to a “relationship” board usually to discuss problems, but reading things here sometimes gets me down. Anyone here been married happily for the long term? I’m pretty happy. Marriage is t perfect but I never expected it to be. We enjoy each other’s company, still have good sex, and work through issues that come up. Any one else? Would be nice to see successful marriages.
