I think I can pretty much speak for all of us here that nothing is ever perfect. We are happy in our marriages, but it takes compromise, communication, trust, honesty to get to that point. People need to work on what they want in life, whether it's a successful marriage or good careers or obedient kids. And that's not to say that there will be problems in every marriage, but nothing that we cannot overcome. If there is a will, there is a way.

Perhaps you are just taking the best from each and morphing it into one entity. OTOH, since becoming a member on CD, it certainly helps me recognize how fortunate I am. My dh is kind and compassionate. That tends to be a rarity around some parts of this forum.

Hi Braunwyn,

You are both working are you not?

I think this is funny in an odd sort of way because I often think some posters exagerrate the problems with their s/o and relationships more so than the other way around.

My relationship is not perfect, but I am happy. If you don't like it, you can suck it.

Please show me one poster that has all these things. It seems to me several different posters with one or a few of these, not all of them.

I think some do. I'll take it a step further and say that the ones who brag on their looks constantly, yet have never posted a pic exaggerate as well.

Actually, I think those posters who belly ache about EVERYTHING and EVERY situation are the ones to wonder about....
