    we made 2 years this past September. Together for 5 this past December. Dieting and working out has really brought us closer lately.

    I've known him for 17 years, we've been together for 14, married for 9. Our son was almost 4 when he walked the rings down in our wedding.

    Married for 19 years. We have had our peak & valley moments. The bottom line has been mutual respect and recognize we are separate individuals who will not always agree with each other.

    how long have you been married or in a committed relationship?

    For the first 8 years of my marriage, I would have been full of words dripping in puppydogs and rainbows about marriage. But now, 11 years into the marriage, i literally seethe in anger just having to talk to the man. (yeah, the big ~divorce~ is coming soon).

    I'm totally not implying that "give it time, it won't work". It simply didn't work for me. I'm just interested in seeing how long you've all been together.
    Been married 12 years. At about the 9-10 year mark, everything he did, every word that came out of his mouth just made me snap. But divorce wasn't an option for us. We went to a Retrouvaille weekend and decided to make working on a happy marriage a priority. It didn't happen overnight. We've had our ups and downs since then.
    Now, we are wildly in love. Our relationship is better than it was even in the early days. We agree that it was worth the work.

    We've been together 22.5 years and married for 20.5 years and I'm more in love with him today than I ever have been before. I'm sorry it hasn't worked out for you but happy marriages do happen. We're at the point where we have two teens, a tween and a seven year old and life is good. Still have things we work through from time to time but he is the best friend I've ever had and I can't imagine life without him. We've been through the fire and back together. :)

    Been married 23 years this October - lived together 24. Been through some really rough times (undiagnosed ADHD self medicated with alcohol, need I say more?!) but now as we slide into middle age it's getting better each day. And it doesn't hurt that my man is smoking hot and in fantastic shape - and loves me just the same even though I'm not! :love:

    Met when we were 8 years old (he lived next door to me). We were best friends for another 9 years before we started dating in my junior year of HS and his senior year. We moved out together when I turned 18 and we got married July 25, 2010 (about 3 years after dating). We have been married for a year and 8 months and have been together for five years and 2 months. We have had our hard times for sure, and boy has he been patient with me! He is my best friend and the only man I could ever see me spending my life with. I am truly blessed to have such a supportive, wonderful, romantic and hard working husband! :flowerforyou: He still gives me butterflies... :love:

    11 years together. Married for the last 2. It's very challenging at times but it's worth it.
    If you really love each other, you work through the tough times. That's the way I see it anyways.

    My husband and I have been together for 8 years. We met when I was 18 and he was 21. Moved in together a couple months later. Engaged when I was 20, married at 22, first child at 24 and hopefully plan for our next one for next year.

    I couldn't have a better husband. I still love to be around him, we still snuggle on the couch for movies, drink morning coffee together at the kitchen table, he takes care of me. Of course with any relationship there will always be struggles but it just matters how you work together to overcome them.

    He is also my inspiration to stay fit!
