If you could go back, would you marry your husband again?

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.

That's a good question and a tough one at the same time. I grew up in a home where my parents were married at age 18 and still together until the day my dad died. Oh, they had their arguments but they also had their wonderful times together. And they loved each other immensely and taught my brothers and sisters about love and commitment. My sisters both married before they were 20 years old and I swore I would not get married until I had a chance to live on my own, away from home, and enjoy me

I got to do that but when Mr. Right walks up and smacks ya in the face, no matter how old you are, you take the "jump" which is what I did. My hubby came from a broken home - parents divorced when he was 9 months old, 2nd married ended in divorce in under 10 years, and 3rd marriage ended in under 10 years (both his mother and father have been married 3 times). He didn't know what it was like to live in a home with both his parents. So, our first couple of years together were "rocky" - he still felt he could go and do with the guys just like he always had, without calling me to let me know! After calling the cops to help look for him (he was a deputy sheriff where we lived) because he was supposed to be home at 9:30 and here it was 4:00 in the morning and no word from him (I had to be at work at 8:00 and I had NO sleep), he began calling me after that. I told him common courtesy dictates he pick up the freaking phone and call when he's gonna be late - otherwise, I expect the worst (considering his occupation at the time). We've still had our ups and downs but we are still together and can't imagine our lives without each other in it

But, as others have said, our relationship would not be a healthy one if we didn't "sprinkle" it with an argument every now and then. So, yes, I would marry him all over again knowing what I know - but there'd be some ground rules before hand written into the marriage vows

Hunny i'm with you 100% on that one!!! I would marry him again but i would have waited until we were more financially stable...he gets bored with his job so easy it was like he would have new one every three months but i am proud of him for staying in the national guard-he has been in since he got out of the navy-he just signed up for another six years for the insurance and other benefits plus he said he's only got a few more years till he can retire and get his army pension. But he has been working offshore for the past year-with the exception of when he got sent to n.o. for hurrican katrina-he was down there for a long time. i wish he would have started working offshore when we first got married- alot of our major arguements were about finances. We get along fine as long as I am not stressing over money all the time. But i love him with all my heart and soul. One time we were in a horrendous fight and i told him i was leaving him and he broke down and cried and told me that he couldn't imagine life without me and the girls. Somedays it's a hard row to hoe but when he holds me in his arms i have never felt more safe and secure and loved. My mom has been married and divorced three times and I always told myself that I never wanted to get married because I couldn't handle losing someone i loved like she has. I really believe that he is the only man for me. Plus he told me we were both too damn stubborn to ever get a divorce-that we would stay together just for spite!!!
