Marriage

god yeh dont know if hed marry me though haha . i adore him still after 21 years . he adopted my girls and we have a son between us hes just the best, i dont know what i did to deserve him

I'm not sure I would marry anyone at this point, if I was in the market to remarry - I married very young and I think I was afraid and not equipped to live on my own.

No reflection on my husband, who has been very supportive through a period of my very bad health. I just think my life would have been different if I'd grown up a bit before marrying.

Yes, I was widowed 21 years ago and I miss him so much. We had 23 years together and I wish he was here to see his grandchildren.

Yes. It took me a long time to find him. 23 years ago after knowing him since the February he invited me to stay for Christmas. I never went home. 22 years married. I know what’s it’s like to be unhappily married. I treasure every moment we have together as we are both in our seventies now.

YES, YES, YES, I lost my dearest love after 51 yrs & 17 days of happy marriage in a road accident.
I would have him back at the drop of a hat.

I would marry my first husband again and deal with his bullying in order to have my children, divorce him, and meet again the wonderful man I'm now married to. Every decision we make gets us to where we are right now. And I'm very happy where I am right now.

Yes yes yes I would marry him again.

paperbackbutterfly. Ditto

If only I’d had a crystal ball in 1966! Spent many years playing second fiddle to his shift work and overtime. Now I am his carer. Good times don’t outweigh the bad times unfortunately.

kircubbin2000 - I could have written that ? I’ve been married twice and shouldn’t have married either of them! But I did have my two eldest sons from my first marriage and we’re still good friends so not all was lost. 2nd husband was a plonker (but I married him so who was the plonker ??) and I don’t even know if he’s still alive! I’m now in a relationship with a kind, generous, loving, damn decent guy but can’t bring myself to live with him, let alone marry him. I like my independence too much. I suspect, like BradfordLass72, this will be our downfall sadly ?‍♀️

Number 1, no. I wasn't fair and honest. I knew I didn't love him as I should but I didn't know how to get out of it and I knew it would break his heart. We were married for 10 years and still good friends.
Number 2 and I have been together 40 years, neither of us felt the need to get married. I adored him from the first kiss and still do. He has given me 40 years of fun and adventure and love.

Yes. I most certainly would. He drives me mad sometimes but he is kind thoughtful and considerate and would not change him for the world. We have just celebrated 50 years together and I would do it all over again.

I stupidly broke up with the love of my life and married someone else. We have OK, but is OK enough?

That should read " We have been OK"

I would still marry the father of my kids, he's a decent bloke and we still talk and were together 27 years. I wouldn't marry again after that.

Definitely yes, my wedding has been pretty much the only thing I turned up early for ! ?

today I'm saying yes, if you ask me tomorrow and he's annoyed me for some reason that may change?. We've been married 44 years, yes there's things I would like to change. But all in all we've had a good marriage.

It is so lovely to hear about those who would.

My best friend said to me when I got married that I could always tell people I was 'happily married'.

It was boding for the future. What she meant was it was a great party. I was very unhappy with ex.

However if I hadn't got married I wouldn't have my lovely daughter perhaps so I am happy about that!

A big fat NO. Wish I’d told him and his awful family to go themselves. ?

Oh yes!

Definitely.

Like most people, we took a little while to get used to sharing our lives but now we're two halves of a whole.

We've worked together, played together, gone through tough times... We're on the same wavelength and often have the same thoughts.

He's definitely a good 'un and I wouldn't change him for the world. Couldn't be a***d to train another one!

i wouldnt have married him, we got divorced years later, so that tells the story, he went on to wed three more times, me once bitten twice shy once was enough.

Although not married my partner and I have been together for 20 years. Would I do it again? Yes, in a heartbeat - only difference would be I'd do it sooner.

Oh yes! I’m glad you’re not asking him the question. I hope he’d say yes but you never know.??
