I need some help from the married folks out there. How pissed off do you get at your spouse and how often? I'm not married and I have put the brakes on the relationship i was in. She was constantly pushing me to get married (we dated about a year) and I felt very manipulated. Everything was for her. She was horrible with what little money she got and would be short for rent or be on the verge of having her utilities cut off all the time or have no money at all anf run out of cat food. I mean when things were great they were fantastic, but I felt there was alot of passive agressive stuff going on. Is this what marriage is supposed to be, being not completely happy but not alone? I dont know and I find myself missing her.
