I've been married for 10years now. The first 4 were hell! My marriage is like a fine wine. It gets better with time. I can say I'm very happy I endured and stayed. My spouse also did a lot of enduring. We thank God each day for where we are and knowing it will only get better 11 Likes |

There is really no manual, basics; communication, understanding, sacrifices and lastly love among other things. |

Being happily married should be based on the number of years as the parameter, if after 10 years or 15 years the happiness is still in the marriage, then surely the couple is happily married. Marriage should be measured on long-term, not short-term. 6 Likes |

lily12: So nice to have this post. I am happily married by God's grace to my friend, mother, sister and love. We got married 12/13/14 i.e. 13th of December 2014. You might say we are still young as a couple, but one thing I have come to learn is... your marriage is a product of the two persons involved(who you are). To the glory of God, my wife and I love God and we desire to please Him. We also make it our priority not to sleep with anger... In other words, we have misunderstanding and don't talk to each other for hours but it doesn't get to the next day. Things that helped us and still helping us are 1. God: we made Him the head of our relationship from the first time we started. 2. We avoided having sex. We kissed on two different occasions - we realized that God wasn't pleased, we asked for forgiveness and we moved on. 3. We were open to each other. Money wise inclusive. She knows my salary and I know hers. 4. I read books on marriage and personal development (Christian literatures) and also attended seminars. 5. We sought advice from our parents on conflict management and other issues. 6. We formed the habit of buying gifts for one another. Mind you, it didn't matter the amount. 7. We prayed together both mornings and evenings since we got married. 19 Likes 2 Shares |

praxisnetworks: Sorry o but I disagree with you. If you are happy you know you are happy. Maybe we can say it is a subjective experience. Something only the one who is happy is conscious of, another cannot access you mental and psychological state and thus cannot relate to your emotion to know whether you are happy or not. However the one who is happy knows he/she is happy, else he/she is either mentally deranged or dead. 2 Likes |

My happy marriage secret is just GOD . It is hardwork though with consistent working on myself because nobody is perfect at first i always complain about her but later i discover i cant change her except i change my approach i adopt a method that i will bear all the pain and be a good husband and it worked, you can't give what you don't have and you can't get what you can't give. I make sure I listen to my wife no matter what happened, even if what shes talking to me about does not interest me I concentrate and support her decision even if I will adjust it later I make myself happy then gradually she realize it and get along. The one I appreciate most about my approach to my happy marriage is I make sure I raise an alter in my house "PRAYER IS A MUST DAILY. My Brethren with God all things are possible Luke 1:37. And finally you can't experience what you don't imagine so start developing happy marriage from your heart. Thanks. 9 Likes |

I am happily married because I said YES to the right guy that accepted me the way I am. In the first three years of the marriage it was ups and down but we tolerated each other and I later realised it was our learning phase. Prayerfully we overcame that stage and today we are the best of friends. We cannot do without each other. Not even the kids can put asunder 6 Likes |

Happily married oshi..Does that even exist?..I'm 21 now and I'm yet to see a couple that lives happily...Even the ones that act all cozy and warmy outside are lying and pretending!..My house(it's not a home for me) is a living hell,I was born into it and until this moment,nothing has changed..Same goes for all the families I've ever come across..Do not be decieved,marry only when you've learnt taekwando like my mum and boxing like my dad..That is all there is to marriage,nothing more! 10 Likes |
