Me and my wife a very solid. Celebrated our seven year anniversary two weeks ago. Been together for ten. Went through a very hard patch at the five year mark of our marriage but we never broke up and were able to come to understandings and create resolutions through being completely honest with each other. It has gotten exponentially better after this.


Would you care to expand on what happened at the five year mark and how exactly you and your wife got through it?

I love my wife and fukk her almost everyday...that big ol fat ass still so clappable :noah:

Feel bad for the kids on here waiting out for an IG model and think getting married is a drain

You don't know what life really is until you love someone more than yourself...my son taught me what life should really be about...I feel real blessed honestly and wouldn't even wanna go back to that lonely and empty life that's so prized around here...a lot of sad people on here for sure

At the beginning of mean streets
15 years together here
My husband is truly my best friend in the world.
Plenty of challenges over the years, kids, stepkids, exes court
Him almost dying getting major surgery me having emergency surgery deaths of my mom and both our grandmothers. 2 big ass relocations multiple deployments and a 2 year stretch where we lived on opposite coasts. To name a few.

I love our life.
Typical Saturday here we got up early and just sat on the porch and talked for awhile. He did some car fixing and maintenance I cooked and fed him and now I'm here with my coli fam while he's getting his Cod on with his gaming brehs.

I would do it all over again no questions asked.
:wub:

15 years? :wow:

Hope to get there. :lawd:

It was especially trying for us because only five months after we were married, my mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer and two months after that I caught a serious charge for a crime I didn't even do which took two years to fight. My wife's parent's also divorced and my mother in law was living with us along with our recently born daughter, so we really never even had much of a honeymoon stage. Getting through it really boiled down to reevaluating our expectations of what we each expected out of each other. We argued a lot but never broke up. We were blunt about how we felt but tried as much as possible to not make it a tit-for-tat thing. Lots of listening. In the end, we realized that we are a great match for each other and both of us were willing at the very least to try to do better in the areas that each felt the other was lacking in. Plus we can't really stay mad at each other. Lots of times arguments would end up with us laughing about something and we'd pause the fight even if the issue wasn't totally resolved. Eventually we got it all hashed out and it's been cookies ever since. The biggest thing I would say is to not beat around the bush if you're upset about something but also don't make it into a personal attack on the other person for not understanding you. Also TALKING =/= COMMUNICATING

She and I are moving pretty rapid. I feel naturally inclined to keep it going too.

It's the little things. Innuendos, quick verbal jabs, calling one another out...

Already began talking about taking a trip to Paris in Feb.

And I'm all for it.

God damn.

She's the fukking truth.

Marriage or being in a relationship is work that most couples don't wanna put the effort in to do or maintain or stabilize it
They just end up quitting too easily nowadays
Or some care too much what others think bout their relationship they act out and cause it break

My situation We went our separate ways for awhile but remained friends and took care of the kids properly she got them some days I did
We both needed this which we realized then later on a personal medical event happened our kid that also made us realize the mistakes we did and needed to fix and brought us back together
Now we're happier and thriving and have really learned what was needed to be better couple better husband and wife

Been married for 8 years now. It's been difficult at times, but I am very happy with where we are right now.

Kids are 9, 5, and 4 months. The love I feel from them and my wife is impossible to describe with mere was words. I'm proud of the family I've built, and I am optimistic for our future.

Get married brehs......... No, really Get Married :blessed:

For all the married brehs. What would y'all say the hardest thing about marriage is, and what could y'all have as done a couple to maybe circumvent the problem?
For us it was dealing with family. Most of our problems early on came from outside of our relationship. My mom throwing sliders, her mom getting into her head and convincing her to be mad at me. My dad and her grandma almost came to blows over an argument about absolutely nothing. Her mom pulled a knife on me the day before our wedding.

We had to learn to not let their bullshyt effect our household. Honestly we are still learning, now our parents like to give us a hard time about who gets the kids and when.

So in a marriage you have to learn to fully support each other unconditionally and put a wall up against bullshyt people will undoubtedly try to throw into your relationship.
