How long have you old timers been married?

[Balderdash]

20 years married, 26 together. 3 kids. Our relationship has been incredibly strong the entire time and definitely the compass needle for everything else in life, which, like most, has had its share of ups and downs.

Only thing I'd change is I'd have went out with her @ 19 yo when she first asked. Was in a different college and in a relationship with someone else so didn't accept, but grateful beyond measure for 2nd chances and that things worked out the way they did.

53 years last August. She’s my best friend, loving wife and on rare occasions lover. Last part seems to becoming increasingly rare. Oh well, good ‘nuff!

Reminds me of the joke about the old timer that married a hot 20 year old.
A friend asked if he wasn't a little scared of a possible heart attack.

"If it kills her it kills her"

(10yrs) #1 - [Overall she was a good woman. I was an idiot for stepping away]
(3yrs) #2 - (aka Mrs Anger Mgmt) [Passion-fueled mistake, but I don't regret it]
(18+yrs) #3 - And then there's Mama. My Little Hula girl Coming up on 18yrs.

10+3+18 = 31yrs total.

My son's a Senior in HS now. (And almost about to execute his Eagle Scout Project!)

Not only that!... I can now legit add the title "International Runway Model" to Mama's Resume' at the tender young age of 56yo!

A childhood friend of hers that lived across the street from her parents house (she's front and center of 3rd picture), she's a Clothing Designer now and needed models for her garments this year at ....... wait for it..... Paris Fashion Week 2024!

EDIT: This line is Outerwear/Jackets, with emphasis on being garments for "Real People".
