    Well these are happy, not together due to children or finances or any other reason than they want to be together :D



    LOL!! You have to agree to differ.. :D

    And you know that how? Because they told you or because you can see what goes on behind closed doors?

    Just as well that we have agree to differ as you don't do arguing!

    Me & OH have never had a full blown screaming row we have had cross words but within 10 mins all is worked out and forgotten. We are a team as well as best friends and soul mates

    Some couples never get out of the loved up phase. We haven't yes he drives me insane at times but when I still get excited when I speak to him. We still do silly things for each other.

    And that's why your marriage is successful, but what if you didn't know before getting married that that's how it would be?

    Could this be because you don't live together though or see each other all the time?

    I honestly don't think so we've only been living away from each other since August and we were the same before that

    Also, OP, have you had a major argument yet?

    I dont feel it is necessary to have been through an argument in a relationship to determine how strong it is or how compatible people are as a couple. More I think it comes down to them having had time to go through a few of lifes ups and downs together to establish this.

    A couple will soon realise whether or not they can pull together as a team and can work their way through problems and issues. These times will also flag up how good they are at communicating, listening and compromising.
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

    Just silly things always wants the latest gadget but wont let me get it and them won't tell me what he wants for Christmas & Birthdays.

    Eats stuff I got in for my lunches at work when he's home and doesn't replace them :rotfl:

    Spends money on me when he shouldn't

    Just silly things that come up occasionally like random ideas he suddenly gets. I always know when he mutters the words "I've been thinking" or "how about this?" It's going to be some random idea that he has drummed up from somewhere.

    He's just a scatterbrain at times but when I need him he steps up big time
