As a happily married man I will begin this dialog with a resounding YES! It is possible for men to be happily married. Of course there can be obstacles to creating a happy marriage but they are definitely possible.

Yes it is possible for a man to be happily married.First ive been married to my wife for 13 year now and it wasnt always happy go lucky but men have to look at something first what we put in to something we will get back. And in saying that i mean if you put time and effort into your wife like you did when you first met her she will give you that same time back ten fold.

Do happily married men really exist? Yes they do, and my experiences tells me those who are most happy in there marriage possess a strong spiritual component in their lives, as does his spouse.

The social dynamics of marriage have drastically changed over he last 30+ years, the roles in the house have changed. While women have, for lack of better term, come out of the closet and are living more empowered lives, seemingly the role of the husband has fallen behind. Men are modeling 1940 while women are living 2000. This as I said is from a social perspective. Personally I feel there is a lack of spiritual indention for both men and women. While roles and rules change, and we struggle to "keep up" with social norms and pop-culture trends, in the wake of the struggle, spiritual principles are sacrificed and lives suffer from a sense of true unity and purpose n(married or not). The basics of love have never changed, those who understand this from a spiritual perspective tend to enjoy loving and being loved in a lasting, more satisfying way.
