Why did I get married? I got married because my husband completes me. He makes me a better person, he calms my nerves, he cleans the toilet and makes me breakfast. He always kisses me goodnight and I miss him when we are apart. I love when I hear the key in the door when he gets home from work, or when he quietly gets out of bed in the morning so that I don't wake up. I married him because I knew he'd be there regardless, through thick and thin. He is my bestfriend, my lover, my husband, my baby's Daddy...he is everything I need- and SO much more that I didn't know I even needed.

HE (being my DH) ate the LAST ice cream bar last night! What part of, "your pregnant wife bought those for herself because she was CRAVING them" didn't he understand?! *sigh* MEN!  He won't be eating the last of anything anymore... LOL The things we have to do to train them, eh?!

A few weeks shy of our second wedding anniversary, so I'm an "old-married" and here's my 2 cents.
I married my husband because he is my strongest supporter, my best advocate, the broadest shoulder and biggest hug and best conversationalist for me, and I knew together we would forge a life of caring and sharing and love, and one day he would be a wonderful father to our children, would always contribute to my fulfilling my career dreams, and hold me close and anchor me in tragedy, but make me laugh and truly believe there is on place better in teh world than curled up on the couch with him,laughing and talking.
Having said that, when we disagree, we really disagree, and that happens enough in our place!!!!! Do I doubt he's my partner? No...I have had fleeting moments of "who is this alien and what am I doing with such a freak" but that usually subsides!

zim and xoxo - i'm sorry you guys are having doubts  i KNOW you're not the only ones on the board having them if that makes you feel better.
when i was out with some cb-ers the other day, i didn't word this very well...and i probably won't again  but....
i really wish the cbers that end up having problems or divorcing would come back on here!
i mean, we're all here for each other for the stress of the wedding, or the babies, or the houses, etc....but what about the MARRIAGES?
the divorce rate is something like 50% - so i find it hard to believe that every marriage that happens on this site stays together and happy  as nice as that would be for everyone!
i think it would give people great support to come here where people already "know" you...and be able to talk about what they're going through...and since there's so many women on here that have been married before - i think it would be more helpful then going to just a regular divorce chat room because the person having the problems will see that they can have a happy ending too!
you shouldn't get flamed for saying maybe you made a mistake - you should be lauded for being adult enough to realize there's a problem.
if you guys want to talk it out - we'll be here for you 
Awww Thanks Huntertobe I can honestly say I don't know what will happen in the future with DH and I... somedays are good and somedays are bad, but lately it just seems like the bad days are really bad and very frequent. I feel like more often than not he would rather blame me for something gone wrong than own up to making a mistake... I don't think he realizes that getting up at the alter one time and committing himself to me isn't enough... he needs to do it daily... marriage is a process, something that requires time and effort, not a big day where you get dressed up and party with your friends and family...
It's really frustrating to feel like you're the only one giving a damn.

ou la la.
Don't I love this question? My marriage prep person asked us both this same question.. we actually had to take a piece of paper (seperate).. and write down all our reasons 'Why We Are Marrying Our Fiance' ...and we couldn't discuss it..
Then after we were done that exercise we took another piece of paper and wrote at the top "Reasons I Think My Fiance is Marrying Me".. and listed all the reasons. When we were both done we compared answers. It was fun!
So here is goes.. (besides absolutely loving each other)..
We have the same beliefs, he cares about me, he supports me (financially & emotionally), he protects me, I have MAJOR respect for who he is, He ALWAYS makes me laugh (even when I'm p!ssed at him and don't want him to know he's made me laugh, I'll turn away... Can't give him the satisfaction!!!!), We communicate well and can talk about anything, I want us to share and help accomplish our goals--together, we want to fulfill each others needs, I know he would bend over backwards for me, I trust him, I want to grow old with him, he's stubborn--but in certain situations that's been a good thing, we compliment each other--I pick up where he lacks and he picks up where I lack, he wants what's best for me. He's my best friend.
Now on to the sappy stuff..
I love how he kisses my forehead then my nose then my lips. How he cups my face in his hands and tells me in such a serious way that he loves me. How he'll hug me and hold on and never want to let go and tell me that he doesn't want to let go. How he's nicknamed me 'Dolly'. How he always has to give me just 'ONE MORE' kiss or hug before he goes to work. How he always ends his e-mails when he's e-mailing from work. How I hate being away from him. I love the sound of his car door slamming and the dogs barking at 3 in the morning only because I know he's home. How he expects food to be ready when he gets home. How he appreciates everything I am.....
I could keep going but I'll stop now. . . I'm getting carried away.
