It is just natural for couples to quarrel sometimes. And it is good to know that you are happy and you soon forget your quarrels with your husband.. I also have quarrel with my husband but not really as quarrels that are so big issue there's just some light misunderstanding but we rarely do. We rarely have quarrels sometimes we've passed a month without a single quarrel, we understand each other's weaknesses and love each other and we always talk about things thats why we rarely have quarrels. And i'm happy about it, to have a wonderful relationship with my husband.

It is nice to hear that you have a wonderful friendship with your husbany. In my family also we seldom fight for big issues or problem. if the problem is big I keep silent to reduce the problem. But both of we are absent minded. We forget many things. for this reason we get problems.

Well, i think living with someone that you don't have a good friendship with is strange, and i'd be better living alone. I have to make sure or we have to make sure my husband and i to maintain our good relationship that we may bring up our family in the ways that the spirit of God will dwell in us that we may be guided in our doings.

My husband is the best part of my life. Yes we have our fights from time to time too, but I would never want to live a life without him in it. We've decided not to have children in this crazy unsure world & neither of us regrets that decision, but I must admit I do love being an Aunt. My nieces & nephews are my whole world & I love them as if they were my own. My sisters & I do not always get along so well, in fact their are times that we do not even get along that well at all. But I try to keep the peace as best I can because I know that if I didn't they would make sure that I would never see my nieces or nephews again. So in short in answer to your question, yes I am very happy with my life but like with most people today no one's life is perfect & nothing that you have now should be taken for granted because if life has taught me anything they could be here one day & gone the nest. I lost pretty much everyone on my Mom's side of the family including my Mom so I've learned to tell my loved ones every day that I love them.

It is nice to hear the love between you and your hubby. the society should be built up by loving family. Before my marriage i was also a loving aunt for my brother's children. Now they are grown up. But till they reflect the love, which they got in their childhood from me. they are always ready to help me. But I expect nothing from them. That part is over. I did my aunty part very well.

That is the task of every home maker. I know you can win each and everything one day. work hard to make you and others happy. I also have hardships in my life. but my first step is making mehappy and then others.

Hi, that is cool. Mein is late marriege. I was lucky to spent many years happily with my parents. As I was a full time working lady I was able to look after them perfectly. those days are really golden. enjoy your life. That life can't be comparable. though our parents are old they show only love and blessings. Now as a married lady I am unable to show my completely to them. But they are blessed with health and long life. Happily settle down with my sister-in-law.

Hi johnpillai, I work full time, i am single at the moment, i have 3 children with different mothers, although my youngest son is living with me as i am raising him alone. I do like and enjoy my family life, love it at home with my son, he makes me smile so much and always seems to cheer me up, he is only 3 and is my life, i do miss my other 2 children as i don't get to see them as much with them living with their mothers. I do love it when i have all my children together as i want their to be a strong bond and relationship as they are all brothers to eachother. In an ideal world i would have all 3 living with me, to survive i need to work and don't see as much of my son as i would like to, luckily though his mum and my family do look after him while i work, i have a good routine really.

Dear craigy i am able to understand your pain. Not only you many fathers are facing this pain. Try atleast once a year to get the together and make them happy. This can be unforgatable to them. this can give them good remembarance. And it will make a good bond among them.

I would say I am the different one in my family...by far. I was actually thinking about this yesterday! My family always makes "safe" decisions...in every aspect of their life. My sisters and mother have safe jobs with steady income, all date the guy they are comfortable with, and all are very social people with a lot of friends which all live in the city we all live in. We have all grown up here, and they have all been here their whole lives and never intend to leave and my sisters will have kids who will do the same thing they did. They are all very happy though. I am the complete opposite of all this. I am a very risky person and never make the safe decision. I like to try my luck and have failed at this many times. I like to move different places and love to see the world. I never date the guy I feel comfortable with, always the one I love very much which sometimes ends in heartbreak. I do feel like the outcast a lot of the time and wish I was more like them, but I am determined to be successful to make their lives better, so hopefully everything works out:). You sound very content without any wants in your life which is a state I hope to reach sometime in the future!

There is nothing to say that you are wrong. I think taking risk, doing experiments in life, and seeking different kind of experiences is one's nature. One can learn more from his/her own failures and hard times. Before my marriage I was so. But now I am a mother. I am very careful in every of my step. I don't want my children to be affected by my faults.

I feel happy with my husband too. But I really want to go back to my hometown and stay there for good but my husband is scared to live his comfort zone and just wanted to stay near his family. I wanted to be with my family in my hometown cause I love it there and its easy for me to get a job there as well. I just hope that time will come that my husband would have the courage to live his home for a better future.

Hello, Not having a family growing up it was important to me to make sure that as I became an adult that I had children and made sure they experience the love for family. I have two a boy and girl and although I was a single mother for a long time I did a really great job while raising them. I live with my boyfriend now for 6 years and he loves my kids as much as they love him. We rarely, thankfully have any issues at all, because of his caring and passive ways. I feel it is my blessing for such a difficult upbringing of mine.

I am the youngest of the family. I have elder siblings and mom and dad. And actually I'm really close to my aunts and uncles too. I also have small fights with everyone in my family but we soon forget about it and move on. My elder sister is like my best friend of the family. Actually she is the one with whom I fight the most but at the end of the day without her advises I can't do anything.
