Well buddy, you are the only one that knows the real answer. However, I will tell you what my dad taught me and what I did. My dad told me thaat marriage was a business arangement, that yoiu find someone who has the same basic values and goals as you do.
I did that. I wanted a good friend, a good mother to my children, and a good lover in bed. Granted there was also physical attraction and I knew this girl since I was 12. We lived together and have been together since we were 22 and I always cared for her. Yet I can honestly say that [b]true love[/b] did not occur for me till about 7 years later.
We are now both 37 and things are going great. But one of the most important things I have learned is that I need activities and time away from her. By this I do not mean other women, just other interests. She is the love of my life but not all of my life...understand?
And also on a side note, my wife and I disagree on little issues quite often...then again that may be what keeps it interesting,[:D]
What ever you do, be sure of it. We can give you all the advice in the world but it will be you that pays the price.
