Which of you settled for less?

This is directed mainly to couples(alternative lifestyles included) in long term relationships.

Which of you settled for less in choosing each other as a partner in life?

In my case I feel that she could have done better than me

Update:

Well, after what just happened here, at home, I'm beginning to think that I was a bit too generous.

It has become painfully obvious that not only did I settle for less

Update 2:

But I've also trapped my self

    Me and my bf asked each other this question before. He has girls flock all over him but still he chose me. He said that although there are a lot of pretty girls out there but he just wants me. Me too no matter how a good looking guys comes forward if he's not my bf I wouldn't want another.

    If you are talking money wise, then yeah I have compared to how I grew up.

    But to me money is not important I'm with the man that love more than anything. In choosing to be with him I've lost my family and the money but to me love was more important than any of that. So I didn't settle for less in the long run

    LOL.. this is a funny question.

    Me and my wife are tied.. but I think its funny sometimes cause she always tells me how lucky she is...

    a girl at work tonight also offered to show me her boobies.. hmm.. very tempting but I think that goes on the cheating side of things... but what if i only look?? too tempting.. damn

    I definitely settled for less. I was desperate and naive when I married my husband, I didn't realize I could do so much better (even though everyone was telling me that I didn't listen! my fault!)

    we all have weaknesses...
