Are you married? Do you still feel that you're still in love with each other?

I am married for almost 7 years and i can say that i am still in love, very much in love, with my husband. I realize that as our married life gets older the more i fall in love with him. We are open to each other and he feels the same way. I don't want to say that we have a perfect relationship (coz it doesn't exist) but it's nice to know that despite the problems and obstacles our family had gone through, the stronger we become and the more we love each other.

I have been with my husband for 11 year. We met in High School and everyone said it was never going to last. But despite the problems we have had I can not picture a better husband.

i think that is definitely true coz i feel the same way with my husband and i am sure that he feels that too. as we are spending more years together, we felt like we have developed so much love and respect with each other. there is already this bond that could not separate us. we still do what we have been doing for the past years and never get tired of it, like, we like to go out together, we like to play around like small kids, we joke around, we constantly communicate with each other, we always tell each other what our day was, we keep the hots for each other, and additionally, we raise our daughter together. sometimes, when we go out, we are sometimes mistaken for newly-wed couple or new girlfriend-boyfriend couple coz of the way we treat each other.

I am not yet married but I imagine myself being in love with my husband as time goes by just like what you are experiencing. I agree with you that there is no such thing as perfect relationship 'coz it doesn't exist. As long as love, respect, trust with each other co-exists together with the trust to our creator is there, then a HAPPY and CONTENTED marriage life will be serve.... ;)

I am married. I have been with my husband for almost 5 years and we have been married for almost 2. I do feel that we are still very much in love. As the time continues in our lives, we continue to grow and mature and I really feel that we learning to love one another more, and better, each and every day. I am confident that when we are old and grey we will be in love then too. I know that our marriage won't be one of those that breaks up after the kids are gone because we don't have anything to say to one another. We try to talk regularly, about other things than our children. To connect with one another on things that are not related to our home life as it is right now.

I've been with my husband for seven years and married for almost five. I love him more and more and as we get older and grow, we find we change together and for the good of things. I don't know what I would ever do without him :) We never go to bed angry and we are like the king and queen of compromise. At least that's what I call us. He would agree. Because of that compromise we don't really argue. We may disagree, but we do take the time out to see what each other means because there's always more than one point of view about something, so no need to get angry over it. I used to not be that way, but that's how he was raised and I grew to prefer the more peaceful way of things. I grew up in a household where there was only one side and one point of view, so you can imagine the arguments that transpired. It took him a while to get me out of that, but when he did I found I prefer a life without that sort of hostility. I owe my life to my husband :)

i am not married but have been with my sons dad for four years already. i have recently realized that no relationship is perfect and each of us has flaws so if you have someone that makes you happy and genuinely cares for you ... you should probably keep them around and let go of the small stuff.

I'm not married, but I do have a crush on a boy in my class. He knows I like him, but I'm not sure if he likes me. He usually hangs around with other girls.

Yes. I am married for almost 25 year in August. We don't hide anything from each other and opened up too. Of course we have our ups and down and always tries to fix the problem as we solve it together. I feel that we are stronger each day of our lives.

i think u are just so right. i have been married for over a year now, i know to shart a time span, but i think a relation just grows so much every day. u slowly startt changing your ideas adn attitudes and become so much similar to each other. i thik i can easily see myself feeling more and more for my partner as time goes by...

Good for you.Iam also married for 5 years.I am still very much in love with my husband.Actually its more than what we had before marriage.Ours was a love marriage. Before marriage we used to meet thrice a weak.After marriage we are always together and which increased our love for each other.Now we are sharing our life with each other. Life consists of happiness and sadness.I agree with you that none relationship is perfect but love increases as days goes on which makes our relationship stronger.

I have been married for 5 years now but I think, the more we stayed longer the more we fell in love with each other. I felt so blessed having a wonderful husband and father. He is so kind and we are really helping one another to have a very good family because that was our ultimate goal in life, to have an ideal family

We've been together fifteen years now and I think in many ways it gets better and better. Ok, so we don't rip each others clothes off if we havent seen each other for a few hours the way we used to, but we almost never argue, and he's my best friend as well as my lover and my rock when life gets stormy. I can't imagine life without him and am looking forwards to the journey of growing old and disgraceful with him.

We'll be celebrating our 2nd wedding anniversary on May and I'm so excited because we're going to Boracay, it's a very famous beach here in the Philippines. While some marriages die within a few months or years like the celebrity marriages, ours is going strong as time goes by. Yes there are times when we argue about petty things, but the arguments just make us realize how important we are to each other. We also love our son very much and he's the best thing that ever happened to both of us. Whenever I feel upset over something my husband did or didn't do, I make myself remember the moments that he made me smile and suddenly my anger vanishes into thin air.

everything is predetermined somewhere above us which is not in our control.
