We have been through alot and have fought through it all without giving up on each other. I don't regret a second of my marriage and I hope it lasts for the long haul.


You married at 20? Wow.

45, female, yes (but have my days where I would say no todays a good one


50, female, my second marriage absolutely. I wish I’d said yes sooner.

I was 34 when my first marriage ended and I stayed way too long.

NO. Female age 50
I loved and adored my husband when I married him. He started hitting me after I had his child. I told him I wanted out but he threatened that if I divorced him he would use his very wealthy parents money and make sure I never saw my child again. Years of his abuse. He finally got therapy from a great therapist and is still in therapy years later. He doesn’t hit me anymore, but his entitlement comes through. He thinks he’s “so” changed. Whatever. I’ll never forgive him. Kid turns 18 soon No court will force kid to spend time alone with him.

Love this! So encouraging..so give us less blissful couples some solid advice. Tell me two golden rules...we are both willing to work on things but don't know where to begin!

Is it a straight renewal? Or non-renewal with financial penalties/adjustments?

BIG difference.

I'm not sure. We've been together 25 years, raised several children together, and been through thick and thin. I often daydream about finding someone new, more exciting, more compatible in some ways, but in the end I don't know if I'd do it. When it comes to relationships I'm pretty conservative and risk averse.

Ha! How funny! Thanks for the laugh! Many days I feel the same way!


Seriously. It is painful to admit but as a smart, attractive mid-30's woman, my desire to be done with my marriage has absolutely nothing to do with my thinking another relationship will be better.

I am staying together for our son, but I am starting to think that won't be better for him. I know it is the only reason my husband is staying in it too. I know him well enough to know that it is not because of me.

34, F, and a big yes. I love my husband, and we've nurtured and worked on our marriage a lot over the years, which I think is necessary and something that most newlyweds don't realize. It's great, and I'd marry him again in a heartbeat. It's been 11 years now.
