I have a great relationship. I've been with my husband 23 years, although we've actually only been married 3. I didn't want to get married,( I wanted an "easy-out" if I needed it) and he was extremely understanding about it. He did not pressure me,although he asked me hundreds of times, and on my 40th birthday we got married. I am truly married to my best friend, and we have a blast together.
We have raised our daughter(she's almost 20 now and married) and we are having fun not having to be "responsible" parents for a change. We are on our second childhood in a sense. Although I had an absolute blast raising my daughter and wouldn't have traded that experience for the world, I am truly enjoying my freedom again!
We have had our moments and our problems(including being separated for a year), but our relationship is stronger and better than ever.
I am truly and madly in love.:s3: Til death do us part!
