Congratulations and may it never change for you. I do however have to say that that is not the case for most marriages/ long term monogamous relationships. If you could somehow set aside social pressure, shared financial burdens, guilt over messing up the kids etc. I think most existing marriages would break down. Few people actually share deep love, friendship and real, freely accepted commitment.
