 I recently married (Aug. 3, 2009) after 8 (yes, I said it!)….. 8 years of living together. We share a 5 year old son and my husband brought a son to the relationship that has always lived with us. I used to be one of those people that said marriage didn’t matter. I believed that if 2 people wanted to be together that nothing else was needed. My husband would occasionally bring up marriage and I would brush the idea away. More recently we had been talking about marriage more seriously and the next Monday night we watched Black in America 2 on CNN. All the points made about marriage resonated with me and we got married the following Monday! I am the first to admit that I was dead wrong about marriage. Our relationship is stronger, the commitment is palpable, and our children are so excited. Marriage has been a wonderful change for us and a great testament to people around us about the strength of our family and commitment to each other. And even after all the years of living together, marriage definitely feels different….. BETTER!

    This is more than the best commet of the week. This is why you are so successful with this website. It works. My hubby and I kiss more each day, whenever either of us leaves a room and just not out of the house for awhile. We always talk on cell phones while in the same house, but to get a kiss to “seal the deal’ is so romatic and exciting. I don’t want to be kissed, just in the bedroom, I want to be kissed in every room of the house each and every day. The only room we have not kissed in is the laundry room. LOL. Candis, congrats on being married. I know I love it and this site reminds me of “why I got married”. It’s love. I use to have to ask hubby for a kiss when he was only going to gas up his car. Now I get a (nice lucious) kiss from him more. You have to really love someone when you give them a kiss first thing in the morning. In my defense, I do brush my teeth before bed and have a mint that I let disolve on my tongue while sleeping. (hubby has to be at work by 6am) but he now gives me a kiss before he goes to work. I love it, it does make my day. After hubby gives me a kiss, I am so ready to start my day. He is like a cup of coffee. I don’t even drink coffee. A kiss can go a long ways. Marriage does do a body good.
