My wife and I will celebrate 13 years next year. We both had a lot of “baggage” if one really wants to dwell on that. Who doesn’t have that? Everybpdy covers up the baggage and acts like they have it together so don’t fall for that crap.

Our relationship hasn’t always been easy for both of us. I have no regrets and wouldn’t if we got divorced, except for the fact that we got divorced, until I got over that. We have a pretty nice family. I have 3 children that I would have given everything I had and more for the experience of having and knowing them and caring for them. But I always wanted children.

The “risk” is relative to what’s important to you too.

Same caveat as always….not saying that was a good partner for you.
