The purpose of this study was to investigate the marital life experiences of women in Kermanshah. These women are the ones who have spent at least a decade of their married life together and are unwilling to divorce. The research method was narrative analysis and purposeful sampling was used. Finally, 20 women were interviewed. Qualitative analysis (themes) The story of women's marital stability experience can be narrated in five situations: First position: family's desire to get married: This situation involves two sub-categories: the preference for family experience and interest over the girl's interest in marriage. stage two: Couples living under one roof: This includes events and conflicts that include: feelings of childlessness for mothers, sexual needs, conflict until divorce.Stage Three: Impact on Couples' Adaptation: After the height of conflict, couples gradually adapt. It has a great impact on separation from the paternal family and independence. Stage Four: Begin Honeymoon Living: Couples' attention to shared desire gives them a sense of calm. Women also experience some form of marital stability after having children. Stage Five: Satisfying Marital Life: At this point, women have had enough experiences to continue living. They have also learned to manage relationships within and outside the family. Thus, the stability of marital life can be narrated in the form of external family supervision and couples' internal commitment.
