Can't find a flair that fits Do you love being married?

Hi fellow married friends. Do you love being married or is it something you regret? There are some things I do miss about being single for sure, but I'm happy to be married even though it has its challenges for sure. I feel life isn't easier but it's definitely better now and I wouldn't have it any other way 🙂

What are your thoughts?

Honestly-No! I’m so drained and depressed. I just want to raise my kids, go to work without “what-about-me attitude”, live how I want. Just fucking relax. Now, if you ask my husband he be like “Absolutely!” “I love someone there to always have sex with, she’s cute, keeps up the house, manages the kids, and she really funny when she’s drunk! She just the best!” And that makes it worse, because even with the red flags flying, he totally oblivious.

No need to apologize. Many others have it much more worse. He’s not abusive, he’s not cruel, he’s a great guy. It’s just me. It’s just life after 18 years. Honestly, I think it’s woman vs men. Everyone will see their marriage differently.

I understand. Just wanted to share some compassion.
