Are you happy with your current relationship?

Love can inspire us in everything we do but it can also give negative effect towards our emotions. Having a relationship can give us lesson, heartaches or happiness. Given that fact, can you share how you feel with your current relationship? Are you happy?

Re: Are you happy with your current relationship?

Interesting question.

After a too-early marriage before I was 19 which ended badly, a long term live-in boyfriend who had wandering eyes and a terrible temper, I found a wonderful man who I was married very happily to for more than 20+ years. He was my true love.

He died very suddenly some years ago of a heart attack at a relatively young age.

Four years after his death I found another male partner and we have been together ever since.

I am happy, although I have to work hard not to compare my current partner to my late husband because then I would probably not be as happy.

I think bottom line, happiness is a state of mind and ultimately you have to find what works for you.

Certainly it was not wise for me to stay with my first unhappy marriage. I was too young and did not understand what a good relationship takes in terms of commitments. By the 2nd relationship I knew, but my partner had wandering eyes.

By the 3rd relationship I was ready to make a commitment and really work at being happy. It was a great success.

Like everything else in life, love and relationships are a learning process and require work and commitment.

I have no regrets. I would love to hear what you all have to share on the topic.
