When it's the right person, it's heaven on earth.

42 yeas for me and she and still having fun every day. My thought is that for many of us the best situation is being in a good relationship. The next best thing is being single. The worst thing is being in a bad relationship.

During my wedding reception 30 years ago, my father poured me a glass of whiskey. He said that he was going to ask me a question. I should pick the correct answer. I can’t change my mind either!!
His question was that I have a choice. I can either be always right or always happy! I am always happy. That was the best glass of whiskey I ever had!!

Happy Shooting!

Every now and then, my wife succumbs to my GAS attacks. But I have to time it right!

Wife and I made it 47 years this summer. We met exactly one year before getting married. It has been like the opening line of Les Miserables, "It was good times, it was bad times." Actually it has been life. Nothing in this world is perfect so why should a marriage be perfect? As long as the good outweighs the bad, it is life.

My wife and I were at a resort several years ago celebrating our 40th anniversary and got talking to an outgoing gal. She said 40 years wasn't too bad but that she'd been married for 48 years; 12 to the 1st husband, 20 to the second husband, 16 to the 3rd husband and was in the market for a 4th...

We started earlier than you obviously, we are both 73 and the 18th of this month will be our 54th anniversary. I agree, having someone you love to be with as your life mate is the best.

Yeppers! It's only been 30 for us, so we have some catching up to do!

There was an older couple in the church where we were married, and he always referred to his wife of many years as his bride.
