Yes, it changed for the better. I have not regretted getting married in the 10 years we have been together.

Nothing changed, except that we started wearing rings.

It didn’t have a major change on our relationship and I certainly don’t regret it. Marrying my husband was one of the best things in my life and I would do it all over again.

Nothing changed in our relationship. A few technical things changed—primarily she was willing to try to get pregnant after a year or so. I bet she wishes she had that year back now.

I never regretted marrying her. That is not to say we haven’t had major troubles. MAJOR problems. But I have no regrets about that.

Not at all, on both counts.

Did it change anything? I think it only made my husband more secure about me not going anywhere.
Did I regret it. No, at least not today. Ask me after we’ve had an argument. Marriage is like stocks. The value can rise and fall at a whim. But if you stay in for the long haul you will be rewarded in a big way. Of course one should research your stock and make sure your just not purchasing the first fancy stock to come along. LOL

Only the day to day mechanics took some getting used to (as we never lived together) – but nothing major.

It helped that we dated for nine years prior to marriage. We survived a lot of difficulties in that time, so marriage was a cake walk by comparrison.

And sure we’ve had our less-than-stellar moments since saying ‘I do’, but I don’t regret a second of being married.

Its been an amazing fourteen years.

Marriage or like in any committed relationship, people change, that is just a part of life and nothing you can do to stop that. The problems start when you deny it, try to stop it or worse start laying blame for that change. Life is too short to fight battles that are not winnable no matter how hard you try.

Philosophers have long maintained that marriage is the end of blow jobs.

It improved it in every way!

It made absolutely no difference at all to our relationship. We were living together 18 months before we got married, we already owned our own home. I think the only differences were legal ones. Oh and it stopped my Catholic in-laws from complaining about us living in sin.
