Had almost 4 years with my ex-boyfriend. now with my new one, it's also been almost 4 yrs. Hopefully forever!! (We always say this, "forever"?... hehehe! Of course!)

For me it is going on 12 years. It seems longer than that. I think that the hardest years are the beginning ones.

kitsch_k · #10 (**permalink**) 01-23-2007, 11:24 AM

how do you guys spice it up after so many years?

#11 (**permalink**) 01-24-2007, 06:21 PM

We just hit 6 years - having been married; last month. We have three children, so it's really hard to get things spiced up these days. We are lucky to have 10 minutes to ourselves in the evening time.

Only had one relationship, and we are at 3 years now. And still counting

I think it will last much longer, it's really going well between us!

lol thanks.
I just moved in in his house for 5 days now, and it's great.
(we live pretty far away from each other, so never had the chance, and now we had).

btw, I would have prefered to have another boyfriend before I met my current one. So I know how other guys are. Now I have nothing to compare him with

i also never had another boyfriend before ths one but somehow i never really wonder about meeting someone better...coz i believe it's not about the perfect guy..its about the perfect guy for you...

pinkbag · #17 (**permalink**) 02-16-2007, 05:47 AM

nancy i also think that you are lucky enough to be going on with the same guy for long time...if he is good then u dont need any comparisons to be done...

My husband and I met online (aol) back in 1999 I ended up dating someone (bad relationship) and then we started talking again, met in January 2000 and 2 weeks later started dating. We got married June 21st, 2003 and we're still together. So, almost 7 years.

Fizz · #26 (**permalink**) 04-26-2007, 01:54 PM

I met my husband when I was 17 back in 1986, we still together, still going strong and still deeply in love. I think I'll keep him another 20 yrs.

KeLLi · #27 (**permalink**) 04-26-2007, 09:19 PM

Aww Fizz that is so great!!

Fizz · #28 (**permalink**) 05-02-2007, 01:03 PM

You have a pretty awesome story yourself. I tell you, I am SO glad not to be in the dating scene, but to be honest I don't think I could date anyone I met online. I don't hold it against anyone that does, believe me whatever ever works for the individual, but me, I'm just not a trusting person and I think you have to have a very open mind to do online dating. So in other words Kudos to you Kelli

Actually it is harder in the beginning because you are living together and learning about each others bad habits. Therefore argument break out. Yes, it can deteriate only if you allow it and not spend time with each other. As well communication is the #1 key in a healthy relationship.

medako · #35 (**permalink**) 07-30-2007, 02:32 PM

My husband and I have been together for almost 6 years, met online even. Married for just over 3 and have an 18 month old to show for it.

MerdeCat · #36 (**permalink**) 10-31-2007, 02:02 PM

I will be married 10 years this winter! It doesn't seem like it's been that long. No kids.

crystal1 · #37 (**permalink**) 11-02-2007, 03:51 PM

I have been with my husband for about 12 years now and it has been wonderful. Every single day of our relationship has been wonderful.

Gilipsie · #38 (**permalink**) 11-09-2007, 02:20 PM

I have been with my husband for over a decade now and things are lovely. I think I said this before but I'm saying it again. I love to be loved and I love loving him.

crystal1 · #39 (**permalink**) 11-17-2007, 05:01 PM

When you have been with someone for so long it makes it harder to move on and easier to to love them through their flaws.

jayjay · #40 (**permalink**) 12-06-2007, 01:51 PM

I have been with my boyfriend for three years now and I love it. He is the greatest person in the world and I hope that we end up getting married. I would be sad if he ended up with someone else.

I met my girlfriend on an online dating site two years back. At that time I was just new to online OK Cupid and was browsing various profiles of singles. Once I met her on a dating site and after couple of meeting online we realized that we had so much in common. We have good relationship till date and this one is my longest relationship.

PurseDigitoko · #48 (**permalink**) 08-26-2008, 07:58 AM

Never break relationship, If some one love you then whole life seem very small but it will be true love on both side.

lesliejackson · #49 (**permalink**) 11-18-2008, 11:01 AM
