I'm working on my longest relationship (been together for a little over 3 years, and the end of this month will make 2 years that we've been married). I've heard a lot about the "7 year itch" and how "normal it is." I don't think it sounds very normal and am not looking forward to it!

Do you think it's normal?
Have you been there?
How did you handle it?
How do/did you avoid it?

We never had problem with it. Five out of our first seven years were in an Open Relationship, so I don't know if that had anything to do with it or not.

We didn't have any more problems than usual in our 7th year of marriage, either.

Haha, I kid you not, 3 is the new 7!

As for the 7 year itch, just like the 3 year, I think it's all about the couple.
