    Been married to DW for almost 35 years (Jan 12, to be exact!) She seems to still want to keep me around.

    I think we should start a new idea (that isn't really all that new): OMAM - Once Married, Always Married!

    madre and I celebrated our 29th anniversary on December 13. Twenty nine years of blissful marriage: she's had 15, I've had 14, some of them have been the same year! :thumbs:

    Martin - You'll do fine. Trust me. Girls are wonderful (I have 3) and it's even more fun when you get to deal with them as teens and boys start circling! We've pulled the shotgun out just this week for our 16 year old's suiter. :)

    DH and I are heading towards 24 years of wedded bliss. I have no desire to find another - I just got this one broken in! :thumbsup:

    I have been married and divorced twice, and I'm now blissfully single and plan to stay that way. I learned my lesson, but unfortunately it took two rotten "marriages" to learn it.

    Sorry, but I had to vote for none of the above.

    I'm in a relationship with my job. :BangHead:

    ROFLOL. I only read the first sentence, and I thought..... Well what the heck is she, but then I finally found the second sentence.

    That doesn't count. Many of us could have said that.

    I have two failed marriages as a result of early years of alcoholic drinking. After 28 years of abstinence I am 11 years into a wonderful sane and christian marriage. Thank God for his undeserved blessings....

    Thank God for his undeserved blessings indeed!. More people on the BB than I realize knew my late wife Gayla. I was married to that angel for 10 1/2 years until God saw fit to end her suffering from cancer by calling her home. Sept 9th of this year. This was her favorite smiley. :wavey:

    Blessing to you, mate. I am that English bloke who sent your late wife letters and books about royalty. I enjoyed exchanges with her and her interest in royalty.

    She was a marvellous person and having an idea of what she was gong through at the time, appreciated her all the more.

    Cheers, and God bless,

    Jim
