This is for people who are happily married. I don't want to hear it if you are in a bad relationship or single for any reason. Married people: Assuming you are really happily married, would you do it again? Say you go back in time and know your future...would you marry the same mate again? I am very happily married, but I am not sure I would. I love him and we have a good life together. However, if I have known the pressures of step children (from both sides) and dealing with ex's... I don't know if I would remarry again. Obviously, in spite of the probs in my first marriage, I thought it a good enough state of being that I chanced it again. I do love having someone to talk things over with about life, having someone to share my good times, etc.

I love my husband more than anything in this world, and I, like you would have to say that I am unsure if I would make the same choices if I had it to do all over again. This is my first marriage, his third, and talk about a lot of extra baggage. As I said, I love him, we are happy, and our marriage is wonderful, but I honestly don't think I would do it over!

I have been happily married for twenty years and hoping for many more. I am 19 years younger than my husband. My husband is kind loving and we both had bagage that we had to over come to get to where we are.
After saying all that yes, I would marry him again knowing what I know now. We have a good life and worth all the hard knocks getting here.

My answer is straight , YES I would marry the same woman who is my wife right now and my reason are also very straight, I cant afford to experiment with marriage any more. After being married for 20 years nad looking at thousands of couple whom I been in contact with, I can safely say that their is nothing called perfect marriage and perfect couple, its all an illusion, one can only hope for and strive for that but no one have a long long honey moon, as Marriage is not suppose to be one. You got to work it out despite loving, fighting, cursing, financial trouble, work stress, bad relationship in family and in work place, growing up kids and finally ill health and disappointment of lost chances. I will marry the same woman again and try to do better next time, instead of taking another chance and falling flat.

I would marry my husband again, we have been married a long time it isn't always a picnic but seeing what my single friends go through my life is perfect. I must say if somthing was to happen and we weren't together anymore I would not date or get married again.

I'm happily married for almost 3 years now.
i'm with him 24/7 since we work in the same office. we go to lunch and all ... everything!
we do have our downs though.. specially if he is having this road rage.
i'm having problems also dealing with his lesbian daughter (my step daughter) and her sister.
but if you ask me if i had a chance to go back in the past knowing what i am right now...will i remarry the same man and experience all this?
I'm very willing to do so! :)

My second husband and I have been married for 28 years, and I think it gets better every year. If I could choose to do it again, I definitely would. He's everything I wanted years ago and everything I want today. We've had our ups and downs, like most couples, but I can't imagine life without him by my side. I'll have to ask him tonight if he'd do it all over again if he had the choice. It'll be interesting to see what he answers.

We have been happily married for 12 years, and yes i would do it again, my wife is my perfect match because we are so opposite, I love that she is so different, she keeps intriguing me. But if we got divorced, that would be it, i would not marry again. One time would be enough
