Married life is pretty good.

[djheater]

I got my girlfriend of 3 months pregnant when I was 22, she was 20. We'd known each other since High School and were pretty good friends before hooking up.

It's been almost 8 years now and even though we have a lot of stress we still love each other very much and are very close emotionally. She's my best friend, my partner and I trust her implicitly. She's the mother of my three children (8,4.5,1) and she's incredibly awesome at raising our kids, they're really lucky to have such a sweet, sincere, selfless Mother, and I'm always impressed by her intelligence, intuition, humor, and sexuality.

I am truly grateful that I have had the good fortune to be so happy and fulfilled in my marriage and partnership.

She's a crappy housekeeper.
Money sucks ass.
Being over-worked to support a 1 income family sucks ass.
Having to put every single personal goal and aspiration behind the betterment of your family, while being the right thing to do, sometimes sucks ass.

Just wanted both sides presented.

I'm with you there on the struggle on supporting a family on one income, but we're getting by.

Honestly, you guys look like a really nice couple. You mentioned trust and friendship - it just seems to emanated between you both in the photo.

 

[aidanjm]

your wife is very attractive. lovely, interesting face.

So, it seems your point is that marriage "sucks ass". :laugh: I won't argue as I have dodged that bullet repeatedly.

You may have a loving wife and kids, but I have my computer running in SLI. I win!

I wouldn't trade my marriage and my kids for anything. I am one lucky guy.

My wife's twin is a photographer, there's eleventy-billion pictures of them.. At some point they learned the picture was going to be taken regardless so they just stopped.

Three kids on one income? Indeed, that would suck.

That is wonderful that you realize the good and the not so good in your life and relationship.
Best wishes to you!

I'm happy for you. Anyone that appreciative and happy about it to randomly post about it gets a :beer: :thumbsup:. Come to think of it, I feel the same. Two girls, maybe one more, one income, great wifey.....Cheers.

As an aside, it is great to hear someone around here actually appreciate what they have in life. We need more people to be positive. I'm happy for you.

Keep up the good work, but make sure to put her lazy ass to work once all those kids are in school
