boring here as well-18 yrs. married to the same guy-four kids. Our kids are 16, 14, 8, and 5. Due to the gap in ages, I always get asked, "Are they all by the same father?" My standard reply is, "As far as my husband knows...."

Been Married 4 times. ALTHO, lol I dont really count the 2 & 3 marriages.

1st 1982-86 2 Children Girl 25 Boy 22. VERY ABUSIVE MARRIAGE

2nd 1987 till 1988 We Spilt up when I caught him in the bed with my Brother's wife, We divorced in 1990 Never cared to remarry after this. We had 1 child together she's 19 now

3rd Lived together from 1990-1995, Married in 1995 Divorced in 1995 never made it to our 1st Anv, He became VERY VERY Controling after we married, Sorry NOT EVER calling a husband to 'ASK"permission to call my Mother, Yes Call my Mother, And No he never showed any sign's of being a control freak till we married Go Figure. Guess he knew before all I needed to do was walk out and be done with it,. However, On Mother's day he grabbed me in a drunken stooper and I filed Divorce papers less than 24 hrs later.

Met My DH in June 14,1995 , Moved in together July 4th 1995 Married him In 2000, We have been married 7 years and together for 12. Last Marriage no matter what happens from now on LOL. We have 4 Children 11,8,7, and 4

I have been married almost 14 years. 4 kids...13, 12, 9, and 7.

We have been separated a few times. (The first time about 4 1/2 years ago , he had the divorce papers filed.) We are working on a lot of issues, but I wouldn't bet for us. I hate to admit it, but I doubt I can recover from the last 4 years.

I didn't vote because I could not force myself to check the box marvlously married twice... because there was absolutely nothing marvelous about the first one.

Married first time in 1991, divorced in 1993....abusive marriage .

Married 2nd and last time in 1996 and been happily married 11 years now .

Married to the same man for almost 13 yrs come this November been together for 15 years.

May be divorced soon due to the recent purchase of a puppy a few days ago without consulting him first (I know that was bad) but my mom bought it for the kids and they have wanted one for such a long time.

He was playing w/puppy this morning though so maybe it will be ok.

Married in August 1985, had a son Dec 1985, split up in 1990 (2 weeks before our anniversary) divorced him in 1994.
Been with my current BF 2 1/2 years and about to start living together.

Probably will never marry again, I have no desire to, I love my guy and will devote my life to taking care of him.

I wouldn't say the first time around was "marvelous"...I will just say it was "practice" because he certainly was an abusive maroon!

I've been married twice, divorced once. First marriage lasted 7 years and I was really too young to get married, I think I was more in love with the idea of marriage rather than in love with the guy. This marriage is going strong (for the most part) and we'll celebrate 10 years on Thursday! We've got 2 beautiful girls, aged 7 and 5.

Funnily enough, both guys were blind dates!

I voted Marvelously Married since that was the best choice. I, like bingding, would hardly say we are "happily" married much less "marvelously". I guess if you are happily married, it's hard to understand others being married but not truly happy. I know if I had made a poll like this, "married" and "marvelously married" would be separate. KWIM? It's a bit confusing now that I re-read it! LOL
