I think everyone is different. Five years married here, 10+ together. I fall more and more in love with my husband year after year which I haven't heard from a lot of people happening.

My husband has always loved me. We talk about marriage vs single a lot because a lot of our friends still involuntarily single. We dont miss being single and are in a very healthy, strong relationship.

We have our own hobbies, space, etc. But still like to spend a lot of our time together but dont need to. Sex is better and as frequent as the start. I mean, whatever you want from your relationship just communicate it and have someone that matches those preferences, goals, whatever it may be.

Adding. IMO, its better to be single than in a bad/negative relationship though. Marriage or not.

Your health, mentally, socially, etc comes first.
