I have been married for 6 years, we have been together for 9, we have two beautiful girls, age 6 and 4.

I never thought I would ever be able to settle down with one woman... I was a very happy single person that enjoyed all the perks of being single, but I met her and something, what that something is who knows, but something was different. She is the complete opposite of me in so many ways, so I guess we must balance each other by being so different. She is very outgoing and social and I am very introverted and she tells me I am anti-social.

We argue, not a lot, but what couple does not. The key to making any relationship work is... being each others best friend, one you can trust more than any other, if you don't have that then it will not last.

x100.

Happy alone. Psychiatrists say I shouldn't live alone. Ruh-roh.

Happily single. No need for a girl in highschool anyway but everyone is loving to one another.

I'm perfectly happy being alone right now.

Never had a GF and honestly I dont care. I find someone I like (unlikely) yay. I dont *shrugs* lots of people these days seem to make a big deal out of being single. Atleast here. So happily alone.

Married, 20 years together, kids will be grown and in college soon. I was not the marrying kind. I was happy on my own. I was happy with lovers.
I am happy being a mom.
We've endured terminally ill parents, ten seperate hospitilizations and extended disability leaves on his part, a father's stroke and some health issues on my part. Relationships are hard. No doubt about that.
We have both changed, such is life. You can't mature if things stay the same.
There's been more bad, to the point that I can't remember the good.
Everyday is a new day. There's always a bright spot, I keep saying.
I didn't vote.
I belive you have to manufacture your own happiness, no one can make it for you. Depending on another for happiness will have disasterous consequences.
On the flip side, a person can make you feel unbearably miserable.

Don't got nobody, don't want nobody. I like being alone.

I'm not married, but I have been in a relationship for 4 years. No one believes we will make it just because we are teenagers. It gets old hearing the same old "you'll never make it". I can't wait to prove them wrong.

Married 11 years to someone who wasn't supposed to be the one. I'd already met the one and had lost him. I didn't want anyone else. Fortunately, my husband wouldn't take no for an answer.
We've had ups and downs, we've been through sickness, surgeries, deaths (not ours, thank goodness), ordeals with psycho friends, a broken tv during sports season. We love each other, we support each other, we are each others biggest fan.
I wouldn't change a thing

Together for 25 years, married for ... uh ... 18, I think. Yes we're a couple that forgets/ignores anniversaries. :rofl:
We met when I was 17 and he was 19/20. The first ten years had a lot of rocky moments (mostly because of me, I suffer from depression) but it's been pretty smooth sailing since. We compliment each other nicely. The areas we're the same make us mesh well together and more importantly, even where we're different we understand those differences between each other and so there's little friction. Neither of us wanted kids so we have none.

There have been times I wonder what it would've been like if I'd stayed single longer...in a way I've never been alone...and I think when you start a relationship so young that's fairly natural...but it doesn't mean I regret anything. Life happened this way, it's been good, he's awesome/my hero, and as someone else said, I'm keeping him.

Hmm, well, I guess I'm with this girl and we're both really happy, but it just "started" last week, so it's still that "just got into it" feeling. I'll let y'all know how it is in the coming months.

I was happy being single for almost a year, but around Christmas, I started missing having that one person I could lean on. I guess she just came in at the right time haha.

Good stories in here.
I have friends my age that like being single.
Hope this new year brings us all joy.

Happily with the girl of my dreams. Hopefully we can settle in together soon and start a family in the coming years.

I am single, but I don't know whether or not I count as I am not an advlt.

Far too many happy people in this thread.

Single and not enjoying it.

I actually wish I was single again. The weekend rompy one night stands are miles better than a woman nagging you all the time. I don''t talk to you because your zilch interesting!

Maybe I should just call it quits. I hate hurting people though.

I am single, but it's not as great as it once was. Will I find that someone? Balls no, not up here at least.

We've known each other for 12 years, been together 10. Not officially married, but in our eyes, it's the same promess. Ever so happy, and yes it gets better and better as years go. I think we had two "friction moments" in our relationship. I'm the kind to pout when I disagree, he's the kind to burst his emotions. But as we are more mature, he hides a moment to cool down and then tell, and I say what bugs me in simple terms instead of holding it -- there's no point anyway. I can't even imagine starting over with someone else... just the road that it takes... no no. There is no timidity, no rounding the corners. We are exactly who we are with each other and that's something I will not let go of easily. It's mutual admiration and respect.

I DONT NEED TO NO WOMEN! I GOT THE INTERNET. OHH YEAHHH.. LOL :hubbahubba: :rofl:

Happily married for 6 whole months now. Its still bliss. We have had our fights but we had them before and they never phased us, I will never divorce my wife as I made a promise, 'til death. Besides, it was meant to be. We had a two rainbows combine into one during our first dance.

Marriage for me looks like one big ass headache. As do relationships as a whole. I would be happy being alone my whole life.

I am single and (trying to be) happy......

Not married, but in a happy live-in relationship. Six years and still going strong.
