Re: Clicky: What kind of marriage do you have?
I voted SS because I do love my husband very much and we are soulmates because he's one of the few people that just get me and I know I'm difficult to live with. The passion has died a bit lately but that's both our faults and we need to make more of an effort to make time for each other. We do spend a lot of time together and talk and we cuddle in bed at night watching TV, he may drive me nuts but he means the world to me and he's a sweet man when no one is looking.
He did an especially good job of making my birthday special and I think sometimes I forget the good things he does and only remember that he didn't take out the trash.

I also clicked SS, I mean we are in love and enjoy each other, and are definately not roomates... We are in the phase of what's next, not sure which way to go in terms of starting a family, or is it just going to be us two... We are going on a cruise Sunday so that will certainly spice it up a little
I voted SS. We are just in a routine, nothing really bad though.
We love each other, have sexy time atleast 2x's a week...but we never have anything to talk about. We eat supper together at the table and discuss how our day's went, but that is brief conversation. We rarely do anything outside of the house together. We never have date nights. He does his firehouse things on Friday evenings and weekends, and Levi and I do our own thing with friends or my sister.
During the week we lounge together on the couch, or I'll sit on his lap on his recliner, and watch tv together, and go to bed together at the same time. It's always cuddling while I watch tv in bed, and then a kiss goodnight, we go to sleep.
I voted SS.
We are in a different situation right now because of the pain that Jeff is in. It has prohibitted him from doing so many things over the last few months that we have gotten into a major routine of not doing much at all.
We still love each other as much as ever but things are weird. I'm so glad that surgery is over and Jeff will be on the road to recovery soon so that we can get back to having fun and enjoying each other and life.

I marked #1. With the stuff we have/had been through since we got married, it has made us stronger. I am not saying things are puppy's and rainbows but I think we have come along way since our wedding day.
I had a breakdown a few months ago related to IF and how I was afraid I was of the unknown. He said the best words ever, "You know that I will be by your side every step of the way."
We definitely have some things to work on, as do all couples. But we are somewhere between 1 and 2. A lot of our issues stem from my hating my job and taking out a lot of my unhappiness regarding those 45 hours a week at my job on him.
Luckily weekends exist for a reason!
We are also very comfortable with our relationship and we aren't really lovey-dovey either.
I would also say between 1 and 2. Since we had a major crises while we were engage a lot of our issues were brought out into the open and we learned to communicate a lot better which has made the ups and downs less dramatic.
Everyone gets into ruts though and you just have to remember to pull yourself out of them instead of just watching the situation.

2012 Reading Challenge
We're at this stage. In a slump. Everything else is amazing just not the intimacy part. It's my fault though. I'm the one not really wanting it or initiating.
