Are you satisfied with your spouse?
 
I have been married to my wife for 45 years and I am truly happier every year. I hit the jackpot and am so thankful she has tolerated me and allowed me to love her all these years. Happy 45 years Honey.

Happy Anniversary. What a wonderful thought you expressed and shared with the rest of us. Here's to the next 45 years!

He spoils me rotten, I'm not sure I deserve it, but I'm loving it for 40 years.

Keep up the good work and remember, as we age men lose testosterone and women gain it so things gets even better for the women. My lady tolerated me through my jerk years so I give her more love an tenderness now than before. We both laugh about the transformation and how it has affected our feelings for each other. As we men age we recognize how special our wives are. I love you honey.

I'm married to a male chauvinist pig, but he's my male chauvinist pig and I love him. Besides, who else would put up with me for 33 years?

Most men are chauvinist pigs. I sure was, but count on the drop in testosterone as he ages to make him a sensitive and caring husband.

My wife and I have been together since the age of 14. So we literally grew up together. We have been told repeatedly that our relationship had been forged in heaven. My daughter commented once that we made marriage look easy upon which I apologized.

We like so many here have gone through more significant life events then we care to remember and it is within these challenges that you test a marriage and the person you have chosen.

And I can say with all honesty that she is the only woman I ever loved...she was my first love, my greatest love, and she will be my last love

I married a 17 year old girl...........49 years ago. There is no way I could have done better, and luck had a lot to do with it.

I was three weeks from finishing my USAF technical training when two official looking guys came into our classroom to run a scam on the nine of us in that class. They said that we were all going either Turkey or Pakistan and if we had a preference between those two places, we needed to go volunteer for the one we wanted. After some uninformed thought, I chose Turkey and proceeded to assignments to volunteer. As I was filling in a form to start a security clearance investigation, an NCO grabbed the form and exclaimed, "You've been arrested?" I told him that I had been arrested four times and placed on probation twice. He wadded up the form and told me to get lost....that these assignments required a clearance one level higher than Top Secret and I had no chance of getting that clearance. About a week later, the assignments came down. Eight guys went to Turkey and Pakistan and I went to England. When I got there, they told me that I needed the same clearance that the NCO said I would never get. I took two months, but I got the TS/SCI anyway. While stationed in England, I met my wife who had Polish parents and had been born in a refugee camp near Cambridge.

If I hadn't been a juvenile delinquent and if Hitler hadn't invaded Poland, we would not have met and would not have had all these wonderful years raising a family together.

Wow, that is such a romantic and beautiful story. I love to hear Rubicon talk about his wife.

Jimturner 09-30-2015 04:14 PM

Well, it's never too late to meet your sole mate, I thank my lucky stars every day, I met mine when we were both young allowing us all these years to share. Rubicon, my love was seventeen also and we were told so many times by so many that it would never work as I was 21. We are still holding hands and smiling 45 years later.

Gerald 09-30-2015 05:08 PM

My wife told me to say we are happy.
