Congrats!

Next Friday will be 15 years for Mrs.BurtonRW and me, but our first date was 28 years ago this past June. (I was still in high school and we didn’t get married until a few years after I had graduated law school.)

Congrats on making it to 19 and both being happy!

Mrs Fly-Sig #2 and I are at 5 years. We both agree with your comment about being a unit.

My X and I went over 30 years but she never understood the concept of us as a unit. I stayed for the kids after discovering her various disloyalties. Maybe the right choice, maybe not, but life is very much better now with #2!

Thank you to everyone for the well wishes!

At this point in the thread, there are 771 years of marriage. I think that’s pretty darn cool.

Happy Anniversary to Mr. & Mrs. Cooker!

Lynda Lee and I have been together for 51 years, married for 46 years. I don't know how she puts up with it. Wink

Congrats Noah!

There's not much better than a happy marriage (and not much worse than a bad one). Our 19th is coming up in a couple of weeks, and we are truly happy together.

I really don't understand why the institution of marriage has eroded as far as it has. It appears that young people these days have no expectation taht a marriage will last more than a couple of years, or perhaps no longer than it takes for one or the other to become interested in a new partner. Yes. new love is a wonderful and exciting thing, but old love isn't so bad either.

In general society, there seems to be little to no pride in being able to sustain a commitment over time. In contrast, when I was growing up, truthfulness and faithfulness were considered virtues.

Happy Anniversary! It’ll be 17 years for me and my better half a week from today. I hope you enjoy many many more happy anniversaries!




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Congrats on 19 years. Later this year will be 34 years of marriage for us, not counting the 9 years of living together before. Wouldn't trade any of it.
