Quote From: k8yann What I don't get is why people live together for years on end before getting married, and then end up divorced not to long after they get married.
Marriage is a life time and weddings are one day. I think that if you put as much time into your marriage as you do into your wedding you can make it work.
I did get married quickly to my husband but I knew he was the one and we have great communication and do not let things get out of control. We know how to fight fair, we keep no secrets from eachother and we remain open minded to eachothers thoughts on the big and small things.
What is right for everyone is different and like Dr. Phil said "you can't always make the right decision, but you can make your decision right."
When you point your finger at others alway remember that you have 3 fingers pointed right back at you.
My realtionship with my husband moved pretty quick, we moved in together about four months after we met and got married a year later.
We have always been honest with each other. I have told him the truth when I would have looooooved to make up a nice lie. We know each other inside out. He can read me like a book, I can be thinking somethig and he will comment on what I am thinking about.
In the three-plus years we have been together we have never raised our voices at one another.we have had a disagreement or "two" but we always discuss them like the adults that we are. In order for a mariage to work you have to find someone that will tell you the truth even if it might hurt your feelings.
