How does it feel to be married?

It definitely feels good, like you're "on track" in life when you're in the first half of your friend/family group to get married. It also boosts your self concept that someone genuinely wants to be on your team for all of life, not just the young/hot days of it.
Taking the next step really does cement a level of emotional security, mostly because it's contrasted to those who don't even if both relationships end. It's still better to have been drafted and strike out than to be put on the bleachers even if the team loses a game.
Not married, but being home from school now, I could ask my dad. Here it comes…
“I used to be wrong occasionally. Now I’m wrong professionally."
XD
Thanks for that! 😊
@Simslover92 of course!
@EmmaMary he’s too funny lol
You're welcome!
Never been married but I assume it’s unique to everyone. It can be amazing having a partner, a best friend, a companion, emotional support, unconditional love (within reason), etc. On the other hand it can be a nightmare, abuse, misery, empty, being lonely in your own home, one sided, exhausted, etc.
I love it. My wife is my best friend! I imagine it's hell if you're not with the right person. I can think of quite a few past relationships that would have been awful if prolonged, but I've been quite happy with my wife. Love her more each day

It's a good feeling to be married... most of the time. And when it isn't, you think about the good times that soon return.
Great if you are married to the right person.
@Finchie40 and as Finchie knows, it can also be one of the 50 percent who end up in divorce
@Finchie40 to be fair most couples treat a wedding like a massive club party - 🥳🎉 bunch of party animals generations lol
@Finchie40 hell even couples now when dating decorate a hotel room as if it's a wedding or a baby shower with balloons weird messages in balloon writing - crikey ; probably the reason why most couples eventually wonder why they're even together and wasted time and money and didn't get commitment. On the plus side there's always rebuilding
It feels good when you are with the right person. I felt comfortable and completely at home with him. Coming home to him everyday was great and the sex was absolutely amazing. It never got old or boring like some people say. Tbh it felt the same as when we were just girlfriend and boyfriend lol
( that's before his mental illness set in of course lol)
I'm sorry that things didn't work out between you two due to his mental illness. That really sucks.
Did he get a psychosis and had to be permanently submitted to a psychiatric hospital?
@UnknownSwede no, but he was arrested, and then taken to a hospital more than once. And went to jail a couple of times as well when he was totally out of it.
@7Phoenix7 Arrested due to things with his mental health but not a psychosis?
@7Phoenix7 Why not stand by his side? If it wasn't his fault. Unless you did and he refused to get help.
@UnknownSwede I stood by his side for 7 years. He refused to get help. And eventually he put my life in danger and I had to leave
As for being married it’s an experience I have never felt & never will experience because I don’t plan on getting married & nowadays I wouldn’t be stupid enough to say I DO.
@Simslover92 to some people, it may be filled with regret or later regret or even buyers remorse - or the feeling that they've hooked line and sinker into a commitment that's hard to back out from without losing 50 percent of belongings lol or shared assets then lol 💍💍😜
@Simslover92 some may also say couples once hitched by marriage just stop trying over time or get lazier over time - lol no wonder marriages more often fail
When you have the strong belief that being married is the only righteous way to be in a physical and intimate relationship with the opposite gender, then the question of "how does it feel to be married?" does not pop up in your head.
My parents fight a lot. I don’t know any married couples my age.
I'm sorry.
Thank you. They’re better now than they used to be.
You're welcome and that's good.
Mine too. It's like if you two hate each other so much just get divorced my sister and I are in our early 40s we'd be fine with it. Especially if our dad left and never came back. Lazy a$$hole.
Try to imagine being locked in a small box with one porno magazine, no food. And sandpaper super glued to both hands. While watching though the airholes the woman you love burn 100 dollars bills in a fire, looking at her phone doom scrolling.
And that's the weekend version.
The same as being in relationship, just before marriage i put everything for my family (parents) after married i put myself for my husband and make him as priority.
@itsannalee and I'm sure you'll always divorce him for everything he's worth if ever he cheats on you and wastes all that time you put on him instead of family being first 🥇😭
Overall, it's great. Sometimes you're more excited and passionate about each other and others, you just feel like roommates. But in general, it's a very stable and fulfilling life.
I have never been married but many married couples are unhappy and this makes me uneasy about marriage. Maybe I can get married when I am 30 but not for now.
It's good overall but the romantic notion of it is well overstated. It takes a lot of compromise and communication as well as plenty of communication.
It is wonderful, intoxicating, exciting. Probably due to the deepened connection and intimacy.
Not much different from being in a long term relationship, Highs with the lows, it takes work for sure. Main thing is not to take each other for granted or get in a rut. Try to keep the passion alive too.
I used to be married years ago for many years, but it can be good with the right person but other times it feels like you’re trapped and have no friends and it’s only you too that you see every day
If you can have fun with each other and laugh a lot together the rest is gravy!🫂❤️
It feels like nothing at all. Unless you to fly to Vegas to get married overnight, you have already done all the work the relationship needs. You get a ring and that's it.
Looking at it afterwards...
it feels like living way below my own potential.
I’m unmarried and still a virgin. I’m very selective when it comes to finding my first man.
It took some getting used to but it's all good.
Like making a promise at 23 you could never understand and then regretting it every second but you ain't no bitch so you tough it out until the murder suicide after the kids are grown.
Pretty good. No loneliness and regular sex. Got someone to talk to
.
Marriage can be great, but the divorce erases everything good about it and leaves an empty hole that never goes away.
it's the same as being in a relationship, but i guess they just brag more about it
Whether it is the right thing or the wrong thing to do, it i
s confining.
You will have to decide what to have for dinner. Every day of your life. Forever.
Here you go.
I am not sure considering I am not nor have ever been married.
0:00 singleness 1:27 marriage 3:01
I have no idea, I've never been in any kind of relationship, let alone married.
It feels good when you are with the right person.
Like a nightmare that you can’t wake up from. Don’t ever do it
Been married since 2010. Sometimes we have our ups and downs. Most of the time we are happy.
Like it did when we were just dating lol
Obviously it depends
Not sure how to describe the feeling. It’s secure.
probably no different than when ur not married
Frightening and disheartening.
Sandy and squishy.
Even better divorced
Comfortable.
Contented
No clue
Wish I knew
