I have been married twice. The last one literally damn near killed me. I do believe I have a very much deserved time out. And who wouldn't believe in a happy marriage. I have never seen one in real life but they must exist!!

I have been married for 25 years mostly happy we have no children something we both agreed on and I believe this has been something that has kept us strong I dont want to upset anyone by saying that but I have seen a lot of marriages fail after the kids came along.
I say what ever works for you.

2 most important things in a marriage:

1. Selecting a partner with character . I mean moral fiber. Ability to bear difficulties, ability to put others first.

2. Being that kind of person yourself.

just adding to what ZZ said:

3. Make sure you like that person enough to spend the rest of your life with them, and be ready to accept the changes that we all make during life.

* I thinking liking your partner might even be more important than how much you love them.
