Probably long trips/vacation stuff. She doesn't mind going on road trips that last a couple days, but I can't stand being in a car that long period.

I'm happily married at seven years as well.

From the relationships I've had intimate knowlegse of I'd say that over time a person's idiosynchrasies become magnified.
Familiarity breeds contempt after all and what once was endearing or could at least be ignored becomes a larger than life annoyance...

The addage holds, you knew they were a snake when you picked them up, why are you surprised when they act like a snake?

My wife has not changed in any fundamental way from the person I fell desperately in love with.

That's just my experience, everybody is different.

sex life? we've gotta find a balance between the hypersexual (guess who) and the hyposexual (guess who).

for those who've been married for a while, do you have any experience along these lines?

Hang on a sec....I will go ask my S.O. what I think. Heh.

Getting her to clean. Getting her to make money. Getting her to agree to live in Brentwood or Santa Monica.

Nothing I can think of. I lucked out and found a great guy. When I was younger I used to worry about losing my independence, but it's never really been threatened.

That describes a couple lost opportunities for myself, as well.

My idiot in-laws. No more than two months married, and they're telling my wife that divorce is good option...because if my wife isn't happy that her parents don't like me, she should divorce me! My father in law is the biggest pu$$y, he has no backbone in front of my mother-in-law, and my wife and her sister have been raised thinking that the husband should be a pu$$y and cave into the wife at all times. In-laws taht used to come over, unannounced, every other weeend, being insulting and so rude, then me having to hold my toungue because my wife wants us to get along. My sister-in-law telling my wife that she should listen to her parents no matter what they say because they're her parents, my sis-in-law being a total arse, treating my wife like her own personal chef, baker and seamstress (all the while being a selfish whore, making my wife pick up her emotional pieces after screwing her boyfriend and him dumping her on her arse time and time again) and again me having to hold my tongue (and fix here computer problems) because my wife wants us to get along. All of these things (and more) coming to a head, my inplaws spreading horrible rumors about their own daughter and our marriage to their family friends and relatives, my wife FINALLY getting fed up, having a huge blow out with her parents, them coming over to our house (after being told never to come over again) to say some more stuff to me and the wife, my in-laws telling my wife things you would never say to your daughter, me haing to physically remove the retards from the house..

and then my wife thinking she can still work things out with her family...

The Problems

and that's just the top of it...

My wife otherwise is great, and makes this crap worth it...

The first three years was the hardest, but the reason was quite simple -- learning how to compromise, in order to accomodate the S.O.

I wouldn't even know where to begin, and I suspect the same applies to her. The only thing keeping us together is our child, but once we get to live in a place where she can support herself (w/ alimony of course) then adios. Gbye.

Damn.
You'd be suprised at how much of a plus point that can be.
Strong/opinionated women = firey normally = good/fun.

Trust. For me at least (athough, I've never been in a serious relationship). I've always been self sufficient, and putting myself, and part of my life in the hands of another scares me.

She doesn't like discussions that include disagreement, she can't accept an apology, she's very stubborn about communicating when something is wrong, and she, like all women, is irrational when she's upset.

But I love her.

he and I are quite different. He tends to sometimes say the wrong thing at the worst moment.
I cannot take some jokes and i in turn get angry at the jokes he does say.

I am a very emotional person, I know i am hard to deal with.

All in all, we do pretty well together, Its just all about taking time and accepting the other for who they are.
