Definitely unhappy when married is worse. For sure

Seriously how can a man be happily married but on IE... that’s a complete joke. The number of guys on here that say that, if you are happily married and love your wife then why the fuck are you on here? I don’t think you’d still be happily married if she knew....

I’ve done both ... and I prefer living on my own (but miss the sex) .. although there are a lot who don’t get that anyway ...

but I think to an earlier point if you’re not happy it doesn’t matter whether you’re single or married ... and that is a miserable thought ... life is too short

Everyone's different I suppose. Some people are happier with company, some like their own space and freedom. And again, it'll depend on the partner of that person too xx
The secret is though.....be happy!! 😁

I’m happily married, but love the thrill of the IE. They’re separate things.

Is being unhappy when you are married worse than being unhappy when you are single?

It' depends on so many things. Some find happiness in having a partner living with them be it married or not. Happiness however is the state of mind. You can't be happy all the time and it's more learning to be tolerant in the relationship. If everyone was so happy IE would not exist. Also when you have both worked to build your family and fortune then you can't just start afresh so an affair keeps both sides happy or maybe one of them. You have to find your happiness and don't expect your partner to do it for you. I don't believe married people are happier at all. If that was the case we would not need so many shrinks.

Hmm tbh I would prefer to be unmarried but kids and finances keep me where I am.
I love the thought of living on my own, and having a guy as and when on my terms

I would agree that people stay in marriages for financial security and stability especially when children are involved. Happiness can be very temporary but less of a factor.

Hello - I think it depends on your definition of "happy" and on the statistics you have accumulated. RELATE research finds people are most likely to stay in a long-term relationship for financial reasons even when they have found happiness with another person.
