We all agree that finding a good husband, and maintaining a good marriage for years is tough. So why do we act weird when people are outspoken and proud to accomplish a good marriage.

Side not) Is getting a job easier than getting a husband?

I see were ur getting at. I think It’s okay to be outspoken abt ur marriage bt As a married woman myself I want ppl who be “proud” of their good marriages bt some ppl need to refrain from “bragging” if their marriage has gone thru or overcome relationship deal breakers like cheating, abuse etc. cuz “successful” marriages shouldnt even have to deal with those things in the first place. Bt I love when ppl who haven’t done anything to break their vows are outspoken abt their marriages cuz at least we know there is no hypocrisy

marriage is an accomplishment that’s why we have weddings 😆 to celebrate!!

Jobs and marriages are both hard to get/maintain. Both can have challenges completely unrelated to the other

Jobs are easier than marriages. I don't think marriage is an accomplishment. It's a lifestyle choice.

Are we weird when people are outspoken about a good marriage? I have never heard of people being uncomfortable with that

A good job and a good marriage need work. Maybe people give an eye roll because it sounds like if someone gets divorced it is because they didn't put enough effort. Quitting a bad marriage or a bad job to move on to something better is an accomplishment.

If people have a problem with you talking about how your marriage is good and you have a good husband they’re jealous.

I think it's totally fine to take pride in finding an amazing partner. I see people on here having kids with awful guys out of wedlock all the time. It's depressing.

I think marriage is work but it’s mostly luck that you found the spouse in the first place. So it’s not an accomplishment in that sense.

Also I feel like an accomplishment has the connotation of something anyone can achieve if they just work hard enough. Which isn’t true of getting married.

@GMF you can work hard at a sport, job , and still not accomplish the respective goal of it. It's sad but happens all the time.

@Annie aand anniversary.

It’s seen as a brag. I love HEARING that a couple are getting on and thriving in their marriage, it’s lovely! What I can’t stand is the couple that are continuously posting their perfect lives on social media, fishing for validation 🤢 and yet you never physically see them together or/and know they have issues 👀
