Now you really know your dh if you could turn back time would you marry him/have children with him all over again or would you make a different choice?

Absolutely. In fact, I wish I could marry him again, because our wedding day was unbelievably special. However, we've only been married a few years, so I imagine this is normal. I hope I feel this way forever, and am scared that I - or he - might not.

Fisharefriendsnotfood · 04/05/2012 12:59

Me too. I'd love to get married again to dh, another wedding dress Grin

Springforward · 04/05/2012 13:00

Yes, 100%. We've been together 10 years and I still feel just plain lucky to be with him.

craftynclothy · 04/05/2012 13:01

Yes, though I'd have maybe had the kids later than we did. It's quite difficult to justify going back to work because of the childcare cost, whereas if I'd got further along a career my salary now would have been more than enough to cover childcare.

AceOfBase · 04/05/2012 13:02

Totally would so it again. We've been together for 10 years (married for 5) but since that is nearly half my life (in 23 this month) it seems longer. I can't imagine my life without him.

tightwad · 04/05/2012 13:03

oh god absolutely yes.
i chose very carefully and made the right decision.

19 years together, married for 12 this year, he is lurvly my hubby Smile

Flisspaps · 04/05/2012 13:04

Yes. In fact I'd be even happier to marry him now than I was before, but that may be because he's been on paternity leave until Wednesday and has been bloody brilliant, was amazing when I had DS (poo sieve and all) and is doing his best to keep a brave face on despite the fact he's probably going to be given his redundancy notice next week for the second time in as many years Sad and is terrified we're going to end up homeless and destitute.

Love him Smile.

GoldenMama · 04/05/2012 13:13

If I could turn back time I probably wouldn't marry my dh. Even typing that makes me sad that I then wouldn't have my dd and ds. They make it all worth while. Smile

DontmindifIdo · 04/05/2012 13:13

Yes, but only if no one expects me to get back into my wedding dress again, that took daily trips to the gym and cutting out sugar for 2 months as it was, and I hadn't had my body destroyed DS back then.

permaquandry · 04/05/2012 13:16

Yes, without a doubt. 16 yrs and still going strong. It isn't perfect but very happy and healthy. I realise how lucky I am (as is heWink).

AWomanCalledHorse · 04/05/2012 13:18

Yes. Although we've only been married (exactly) two years.
Different wedding though; just me, him & some witnesses. Hate all the fuss about weddings.

SpiritOfTheSite · 04/05/2012 13:19

Absolutely! Been married 14 years and had 2 children.

cantpooinpeace · 04/05/2012 13:21

Yes, at the moment I would, married 6 years in Sept. Ask me when we have had our 6 monthly ding dong and I want to leave the bastard Grin.

welliesandpyjamas · 04/05/2012 13:23

Yes, without a doubt.

twolittlemonkeys · 04/05/2012 13:25

Absolutely! 10 years on, and I am so happy with my marriage. But as crafty said, I'd have waited longer before having kids, so as to get my career off the ground first. I am glad I've been a SAHM but with youngest starting school soon, my earning potential now I've been out of work for 6 years is negligible, but we're really feeling the pinch so I'm going to have to get something. Anything. Confused

flagnogbagnog · 04/05/2012 13:27

Yes! Without a doubt. Best thing I ever did. Back then I didn't really realise how lucky I was. But every year we are together I see new strengths in him i didn't know were there before. I don't really know what I did to deserve him. Everyone loves him and he is just priceless. I know, I know pass the sick bucket, but you did ask!

WizardofOs · 04/05/2012 13:28

Yes but would run off and do it quietly with no fuss - dunno what we would do with the kids though. I have never met a man I would rather be with.

galletti · 04/05/2012 13:28

Yes

Emandlu · 04/05/2012 13:29

Yes, most definitely. We've been married 13 years and I love him more than I did back then.

maras2 · 04/05/2012 13:30

Yes.Without hesitation.Together 44 years and married for37.Still fancy him something rotten.

UnChartered · 04/05/2012 13:30

PotteringAlong · 04/05/2012 13:30
