    A lot of people say things like “marriage is great, but its a lot of work”. Those are the people that I’m like “really? Sounds like you maybe did make a mistake there” because (and I’m not expert, I’ve only been married once) it’s really easy being married to my wife.

    Just wanted to point this out. Life is supposed to be hard , Marriage isn’t supposed to be.

      Nah I would disagree… 99% of marriage is just pure fun. However people forget about 1% that is relationship maintenance. This is work. Not the hardest work, but work.

      But some people just ignore the fact you should take special care of this relationship. People can very easliy and slowly grow apart…

      The hardest example is if a married person starys getting in love with someone else. This is common and noone is imune to this. However having a doscussion about this with your partner is unplesent and would more likely fall into a category of hard work as compared to category of fun…

      Probably I am just disagreeing with the how much ‘a lot’ represents…

        Relationship maintenance isn’t exclusive to marriage. It’s just a part of life.

        also

        Nah man. Not common at all. Not saying it doesn’t happen but I’d really need to see something that this is ‘common’
