Would you marry the same person

I thought this would be a cute question of the day.
If you had your life to do over would you marry the same person? Why?

My ex - NO! LOL!! There are plentiful reasons why he's my EX.

My current - yes yes YES with my whole heart. He's just an amazing person/husband - much better than I'd ever dreamed I'd be with.

I feel just like franny. I've even told my ex that I would do it all over again, knowing it would end in 20 years just to get my 2 girls. That made it all worth it.

Me -- yes - he's still the only one I ever thought I should marry. I've been glad I made that decision ever since.

To the posters above who are NOW with Mr. Right - I'm so happy for you!

I hope the majority of the responses are as lucky as we all are...

In a heartbeat. Even on those days we're mad at each other, I'd still rather be w/ him than anyone else in the world. I get bored when he's not around. I get depressed when he's gone for more than a day. He makes me soooo happy and smiley.

ETA: we've been together 13 years and married for 5.

We've been married 10yrs and I can't imagine anyonelse could be such a perfect fit for me. I would skip the wedding nightmare and elope though.

"No", to the first husband (married at 18).

"Yes", to the second husband (will be 30 years in July)

Yes, I would.

After 34 years we have had our ups and downs, but these have made us stronger.
Looking forward to our retirement years and being with him all the time in a few years.

Well, I guess I will be the voice of dissension. I would probably NOT. I think I made some impulsive decisions at a young age. I was worried that no one else would want me, it seemed like a good choice and he asked. I was 21 when we got engaged. I know...it sounds harsh, but is probably true. He's 5 years older, had a good job, a house, he listened to me and seemed to want the same things. Now I seee that it wasn't all I thought. (yes, he had the house and job).

In the last 5 years, it has been super rocky. We had divorced papers filed once. I should have left after that. (He has pushed the line of fidelity a few times). I have great kids and a nice "life", but my marriage is eh.

Yes, because I love him!! But our girls have already been told that we will go to any lengths possible to prevent and STOP them from even dating anyone like him - he is divorced and pays HIGH child support!!

How appropriate that this topic comes up today. It's our 18 year wedding anniversary. What are we doing to celebrate? I'm doing laundry and surfing MYCOUPONS. He's watering the yard and playing around in the garden. Where's the romance? Anyway, yes, I would marry him all over again. I loved him when I met him at the age of 17 and I still love him today. Though, I admit, some romance would have been nice.

My X......not EVER. He was 6 years older, I was 18 when we met, married 6 months after I graduated high school....he had 2 sons from a previous marriage (whom I adore and still have a relationship with...1 is doing his 4th term in Iraq......).....it just wasn't meant to be. Even my mom tried to stop me but hey, I was 18 and knew EVERYTHING!

My now dh, yes I probably would. We've had our problems (still have some but working on those) but I think we'll be in it for the long haul. And I'm not sure anyone else would put up with me like he does. And likewise, no one else would put up with his crap either. And we have 2 beautiful girls, so it ain't all bad.

We were so young when we married (19/20), almost 26 years ago. Yes, I would marry the same person. I don't think either one of us had a clue what were getting into when we decided to get married. It has not been easy. We have basically grown up together. Not long after we married, my mother found out she had a deblilitating illness (MS), shortly after that my dad passed away. I promised my dad that I would always take care of my mother, and I spent the next 18 years trying to keep that promise. It took a huge toll on our marriage.
With hard work, and the support of wonderful in-laws, we have managed to overcome more than our share of problems. I hope that someday, we can renew our vows. I often think back to our wedding day and I realize that it was more about the wedding, than about the marriage. This time, I know when we say our vows.....we will honestly know just how important those words really are.....

We were 20/21 when we got married almost 26 years ago. Two boys and two girls later and I would marry him again in a heart beat. We were best friends before we married and now we are each others rock. We have had our ups and downs over the years and we both came from his, hers and ours familys. That is something that we did not want that for our children. He is a great person, I would be lost without him.

If I could "do over" with some of the learnings and insight that I have now, I would make different choices in many areas of my life....this would probably be one of them.
