		<description>I always listen to people rip on their husbands and it bugs me, big time!  It amazes me because, we women, aren&#039;t perfect in our marriages, either!  If you have a good husband who helps (in some capacity)around the house, with the kids, comes home for dinner and doesn&#039;t complain if it sucks...then, so far, so good!  I know my husbands shortcomings, he knows mine...it&#039;s all good!

		<description>Shay, All my &quot;younger&quot; friends that are/were single will tell you that I have never made marriage out to be a picnic.  And I am not man bashing to them when I have spoken about my marriage.  I think that single people need to realize that it is a 2 way street and that you have to prepared to make sacrifices.  It doesn&#039;t work unless you realize that.  You will make mistakes and he will make mistakes. But at the end of the day the reason why I got married is because it was a calling God had on my life.  I didn&#039;t try to pick my mate.  God picked him out for me.  And He did a fine job.  Some days I wonder what God was thinking, but He knows me better than I know myself and I think sharing my life with someone else and having a common goal to work toward is a                         very rewarding thing.  In the beginning you marry for the romance part of love. In the  end you&#039;re married because it is what God has called you to do and you want to model Christ love     
to your mate and the world.  Just my 2Cents.  From a girl who married at 27 and every person in my bridal party was or had been married except my younger brother.</description>

		<description>And on another note, when single women constantly hear married women gripe about their husbands shortcomings, it scares them and makes them. It makes us want the romance but not commit.  I thought this for a long time.  It is taking awhile to revamp my thinking on marriage because what I&#039;ve heard married women talk about. 
I don&#039;t man bash any more, and I don&#039;t listen to married women gripe about their husbands but I&#039;m still along way from signing a contract. We need to hear what makes it worth it because sitcoms, drama shows and real life are enough to make you decide that being in charge of your own financial security, and making yourself happy is better.</description>
