Re: Happiness

Great question CiCi. I think in todays environment with the ease of getting divorced alot of people are very cavilear about jumping out of their marriage or relationship if they hit that doldrum area where things get boring. I think we can all identify with times that you just have alot going on with rearing kids, the job grind, life in general becomes routine and you forget to take time, put your gripes on the table and talk them through when they are present instead of letting them grow on the back burner until some day it has become one of a few major issues in the relationship. I also think at some point people just say "it's not worth the investment to rehash all this stuff from the past and see if it will work again" it's just easier to cut and run with someone new.
So I guess to answer your question, and agree with others, there are many degrees of happiness, it's how you define it and what is important to you. Hopefully your definition of happiness matches your mates definition fairly closely or I believe you have trouble on the horizon.
