I've been married twice, widowed once. Both marriages very happy. Choose wisely and you're not likely to get burned.

People also need to have realistic expectations of what a marriage is. It's not always sweeping romantic fairytale bliss for eternity. Once kids come along, it becomes something of a small business; the business of child-rearing. I love my wife with all my heart and she does me but with four kids, we're keeping a ship afloat and we each have a job to do and our own responsibilities.
