I would marry my husband ten times over again. It has been hard because of his illness but he is a wonderful man and we love each other very much. Personally I think it is easy to love when things are going smoothly. It is only when you reach the tough patches in your marriage that you truly realize whether your love is real and strong enough to make it through. For those of you who are going through the rough patches, don't give up! It may seem hard while you are in the moment but if you can withstand the hardships, your marriage will emerge stronger than before. "That which does not kill us, makes us stronger."

My husband and I were married when we were very young and, as you can guess, we soon had children, and yes, I would marry him again! He's a wonderful Christian man with good morals and a good work ethic. He's wonderfully patient and is the kind of father that every kid wants to have. He babies me and gives me lots of attention. Sometimes I feel so spoiled. I'm not saying that there's not things that I wouldn't change, but I could never find another man to ever take his place. Since we started so young I have always considered myself to be blessed that I made a right choice. I could have so easily at 17 married Mr. Wrong. We've had our ups and downs but we've always managed to work it out and we've never used the "D" word (divorce). We've been married for 32 years!

I've only been married 1 year and 2 months, and at this point I say, YES! I would do it exactly the same if I had to do it again. Of course, most people would say that I'm still in the honeymoon stage.


DAMN WOMAN! Are you trying to get us shot!!!! LOL NAh I am just joking. We have had our good and bad times but to answer your question yes I would marry him again.We have been married for 12 years so far. Now come ask me this question on a day that he ticks me off. You might get a whole new answer!!!!

Well, wasn't sure I even wanted to read this thread, but finally did. After 32 years, I have to say, yes, I would marry him. We too have had ups and downs, but he's still my very best friend, and he is definitely the one I want to grow old with. I don't know what I would do if anything every happened to him. I know I would keep busy, but I can't imagine being without him. We share everything. We usually talk at least 2 or 3 times during the day while we are working. Cell phones are a wonderful invention. Our home office has a long counter with two computer stations. He's clicking away playing hearts right now. In a minute, he's going to ask me what all the typing is about.

I don't mean to make anyone who is not in such a good relationship feel bad, but I really do love this man, and he loves me just as much. He convinced me that $1,800 was not too much to pay for my precious little yorkie, Zoe. So you know he's special.

Yes, definitely, yes in a heartbeat. I'd do it all over again. But I would be an even better wife, less selfish in the early years.

He just ask about the typing. If I'm not careful, he's going to notice the tears in my eyes.

Gotta go.

Marilyn, that is the nicest thing I've heard in a very long time! Me still being in my early years of marriage, may I ask you a question?? You said you would be a better wife and less selfish in the early years if you could do it again. What do you mean by that? If you feel comfortable, would you share? I would love to take some marriage tips from you and try to not make the same mistakes.

If I knew then what I know now? I would have NOT married this husband or the previous one, either. Hell, I would never get married.

Yes I would marry my husband again. He is my biggest supporter. My husband defended me to his family when we were dating. They kept trying to drag my name in the mud to get him to leave me and he would have none of it. Now his sister feels I stole him from the family and I changed him. I don't think I changed him. We just fell in love and wanted to be together.

He loves me and spoils me and I in turn love and spoil him. He yells at me for not spending money on myself (go figure!LOL). He says I spend too much money on the kids, our animals, him and that I should take more time for myself than I do. He bought me two new outfits last month and I felt guilty because the money he spent on me could have been used on the kids instead. LOL

He does laundry, helps with the dishes, we clean house together...and we talk about everything! We are best friends and I can't imagine my life without him...Oh and he changes diapers!!!! He also cares for the kids while I work. It used to be the other way around until he injured his back.
