Do you have any happily-ever-after stories?

Most of the girls I know (including myself) are in the process of getting treated badly by the men they date and/or attempt to date, and it is making me unpleasantly cynical. I keep watching the season finale of 30 Rock to cheer myself up.

So this is a fluke, right? People do actually go on to have happy, enjoyable relationships after periods of bullshit, right? We’re not all doomed to be alone forever…are we?

Can you tell me a relationship story with a happy ending? Bonus points if it starts out with the horrible and the miserable.
