Marriage

I think that is long as two, yes TWO people are willing to put their all into a marriage it can be successful. Marriage is hard work, and it involves both, BOTH ( NOT ONE) people working together as a team.

Best advice I have, is really get to know your SO. Don't be blinded by hope and love because you will ultimately end up unhappy while the other is content in the relationship. Remember ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS. Watch your SO behaviors, more than what they say. Words mean nothing without putting those words into action.

Listen to your instincts, and don't go against them. If you have a feeling that something isn't right, listen to it. If you are planning your wedding, and you hit a point where you feel that you shouldn't go through with it, or maybe you should postpone. DO IT! Forget what everyone else says, listen to your instincts....

I think that if I was asked this question years ago I would have said "marriage is garbage" based on my experience with my mom and dad, aunts and uncles, etc... However, my wedding is coming up fast and the more I think about marriage I think about how fast I can't wait to live every day with my best friend. How I can't wait to sleep with the love of my life for the rest of my life. & how I was so lucky that God chose me to be my FH's wife. I believe marriage is sacred.

Everyone is always so supportive and positive but can't answer a question like this. I knew immediately what you were wondering. So I hope my answer helps. Sorry for the rude people on this forum.
