How many years?
Are you still in it? If yes, are you happy? If no, why did it end?

I'm 25 years married. Still in it. Overall happy but do wonder about what might've been or if I'm scared to be alone.

Prior to marrying my longest relationship was six months!

  1. Current relationship. No sign of waning but I guess you never know!!
Mammma91 · 12/03/2023 17:17

6 years this summer. Lots of hard times that almost caused us to separate but equally many happy times together too. The good outweighs any bad times we’ve had. We both our moments but he makes me happy 😊

GraceUnderPresure · 12/03/2023 18:10

23 years, 16 of them married, then he cheated & lied his way out of my life thank god!

AcrossthePond55 · 12/03/2023 19:12

37+ years. And as the Orleans' song says, he's "still the one who can scratch my itch".

vdbfamily · 12/03/2023 20:30

21 years married to my one and only boyfriend. He is my best friend and not once have I regretted being with him. I am not saying either of us are perfect, but we know and accept that and he still makes me laugh every day which is most important thing.

MajorCarolDanvers · 12/03/2023 20:32

Together for 24 years. Married for 19.

Still going strong.

Prior to that 18 months.

Lostmarblesfinder · 12/03/2023 20:32

29 years together 18 married. Happier now than when we first married we’ve both grown up a lot. Before that 4.5 years.

Lostmarblesfinder · 12/03/2023 20:33

20 years not 29.

Rovinonmars · 12/03/2023 20:33

10 years at the moment. Married nearly 7. Longest by quite a while!

Frenchfancy · 12/03/2023 20:33

Married 29 years. Never regretted or wondered what might have been.

My biggest fear is him dying and me being left alone.

hayu19 · 12/03/2023 20:35
