"Marriage is a commitment of several years of your life"

That is your first problem.

Marriages is a commitment for the rest of your life.

So far in my family (my parents, brothers, and myself) we have been married for over a 100 years. My brother and his wife were married for 26 years, and would have loved to have been married longer. Unfortunately, my brother died this year.

My parents have been married over 50 years. My other brother has been married 26 years. I have been married for 13 years.

We married for life, and we don't regret it. We like our spouses and our children. We can't imagine life without them.

My husband is my best friend. When I married him, I thought about what it would be like to grow old with him. I knew it would be difficult. We've suffered through 3 miscarriages, one son, and twin daughters. Our twin daughters almost died when they were babies. Now one of them has brain damage. We both married someone that could handle the stresses of life, and wouldn't cut and run when the going got tough.

You must have responded to me by mistake. Your quote is not from me and I agree with everything you say in you post.
