Message: <blockquote data-quote="VitruvianDoc" data-source="post: 1318695" data-attributes="member: 13736">I was with my now wife for 5 years before we got married just 4 months ago, so I am still in the "newly" wed period according to many, but my own opinion is that we were in that years ago and just finally got around to getting the title of married.I think Lee Brice's song Love Like Crazy sums up my wife and I (other than the whole job and children aspect lol)My wife and I were highschool sweethearts, my parents and hers continually tried breaking us up as we were "too serious," and college rolled around and we had to do the long distance thing for two years until I moved back, we then lived together for 2 years and finished undergrad.  Now I am in medical school, she teaches, and we are finally married.Its never been easy, but neither is anything in life worth having.  My grandparents came from abusive homes and were on their own from age 13 after running away. My parents were the first in their families to go to college.  Then my sister and I are the first to get graduate degrees. In three generations we have gone from rags to richess. My point is that marriage is just another journey within life, it has to be worked for and when you find the right person to work with you, its incredible.The majority of the reasons Ive seen marrages fail (my wifes parents have both been married and divorced now two times each!) is the unwillingness to treat eachother as equals, and overall lack of motivation and compassion.  As soon as you loose love and devotion, your marriage is a house of cards.</blockquote>
