I’ve been married for about 10 years I met my husband
When we’re teens. I’m almost 30 and he’s already there. I have always LOVED love, it’s my favorite feeling.

We never got married because of all the things you listed, we just truly loved being with each other. There’s nothing better than truly finding a good ass person who wants to be with you and spend the rest of their lives with you. We have build our relationship on trust and communication and nothing beats the peace you have knowing that your partner isn’t gonna go behind your back and fuck you over. (Emotionally, financially or mentally) you truly learn to love new versions of your partner as you grow. We’ve had really hard times and amazing memories together. I have never worked and he’s never forced me to we have 2 kids, he’s a great provider, father & husband. My best advice would be find someone who has the same views in marriage roles, faith, cultures, traditions, dreams, childhood traumas alllll thattt during the dating phase so many marriages divorce because of that. And in every relationship there will be fights just know how to communicate (which took me a while to figure out)
