Is it a reality that there are just people unhappily married?

Some people are happy, some people are not. Depends on the two people in the relationship. My advise to you not to get married until you have done everything you want to do in life. I say this because sometimes in a marriage things don't work out like you plan. It can slow you down or completely stop you from accomplishing your dreams. If you want to travel the world, do so alone..at least a first, if you want to buy that dream car, buy it while your single. Once you get married there is no more true self government. You must always take your partners feelings, thoughts, concerns and short comings into consideration. You also must realize that once you are married the actions of your partner can either enrich your life or destroy it. I got married at 26 and though my husband and I are on good terms now, if I could do it all over again, I would NOT have married that young. I would have waited until I was finished learning who I was, enjoying who I was and being free to move around without contraint.
