Hey all you fellow redditors. Just felt like asking all the folks here who have been married for a while a few questions about their overall experience. I know everyone’s journey & circumstances are different, but this is just a casual conversation to gain some insight. Would appreciate honest, candid & unfiltered answers & comments; don’t hold anything back whether it’s positive or negative.
-
What major pleasant or unpleasant changes do you see in yourself & your partner post marriage vis-a-vis when you guys were courting/dating/engaged?
-
Do you feel marriage is genuinely a life altering milestone? Is a really that big a deal that’s made out of it by those around us?
-
Any pleasant experiences or rude shocks that you encountered along the way that changed quite a lot of your perspective of the institution & how you expected life to be after marriage?
-
Do you think you & your partner have lived up to most (or maybe all) of each other’s expectations?
-
Knowing what you know today, if you were given a chance to go back in time & reconsider your decision to get married, would you do so?
