Long time married

[Paul B]

This week is my 35th wedding anniversary. That seems odd today and I get wierd looks from a lot of people since it is so rare today to be married for so long. I know a guy who was married three times, twice to the same girl. I mean, what the hell are you thinking? If you diden't get along the first time, why would you do it again.
Obviousely he isn't very good at this.
And if you notice when someone was married three or four times it is always the partner that is no good, never the person telling the story.
Some people are just no good at this.
I am though running out of things to get for my wife on these occasions and birthdays.
I took her out last night to what I feel is the best restaurant on Long Island, it is on the beach and has the best food and view in NY.
Next week I am taking her to Connecticut on a boatride to see the foliage and stay over at a B&B. I retired so I can't take her to the Caribbean every year anymore.
I am lucky to have married my best friend and we still hang out all the time together. Unfortunately she does not share my love of the hobby but she does enjoy diving with me and we have been diving since the seventees.
It is a shame that there are so many married people who fight all the time.
We fight of course but she goes to the gym almost every day so I let her win.

Paul, congrats to both of you.

We've 'only' been married 23 years and I get those strange looks from people too, so I understand what you must get. You've bucked the trend my friend. Best of luck to you and your beautiful wife.

BTW, being best friends is great, but I also find that neither of us has a jealous bone in our body and that is a major factor as well.

Thats very important. My wife even points out nice looking girls on the street for me.
She is a Tom Sellic fan big time.
