    (If your parents are still together....) Do you think your parents are happy together? Do you ever get the feeling that either your mother/father is unhappy, in some ways at least, because of the other?

    One of them died suddenly at a young age so I think they are both pretty pissed about that

    No not happy at all, they never were. They were married in a time when you had to get married to the first person who showed any interest in ya.

    That covers a hell of a lot of Married parents I'd say.

    I think so. My dad has been married twice, so I think he appreciates the importance of marrying for the right reasons now. I mean they have their bad days, but they still remember each other's birthdays, celebrate Valentine's Day together, spend nights in watching tv and cook each other meals and such. It's definitely not a completely cold, marriage of convenience kind of deal.

    My mam lost her love just on ten years ago. Despite the usual shoite and arguments that happened within a family (with many, many siblings), they loved each other. My mam is a tough woman and my dad was the quietest man. It really is true, opposites attract. If I could be half the man my dad was and just as tough as my mother is, then I hope I can put some things to right.
