2 times. 20 years in the first and this summer will be 20 with the second. This one will survive happily until one of us dies. Hopefully we'll go together in a fiery crash. My wife suspects that, the way I drive, that's how it will go down.

THIS!Once. Together since 1994, which is more meaningful to us than the day we went to City Hall and did the paperwork.
Us too!THIS!
We celebrate 2 anniversaries a year...September, when she came home from a semester n a summer abroad and we began our experiment in ‘living in sin’...and the other one...when we put a ring on it.
Once. 27 years in.
Seems to be quite a few 'lifers' here.
I wonder if that's a bass player thing?

QFTBefore I got married, a friend of mine said: "Here's the secret to a happy marriage: separate bathrooms."

Fantastic story.....and you are a mirror of my married experiencesI have been married twice... My first marriage lasted 6 years and ended in 86... the second one was in 90 and that one ended in December of 2016 when my wife left... she "moved on" "was in a different place" and "had different needs.." I am in the middle of my second divorce as we speak.. I will do it again.. one more time... I like being a husband... I have no need or desire to have a stable of chicks ... and I have found a woman who for the first time in my life helped me truly understand the term "soul mate" ... This woman has redefined every love song I have ever heard ... and we are planning to be married in July of this year...
It’s never too late.None.
But I used to daydream about being married during class, as far pre-teen back as I can remember.
And this was a couple of decades before teachers started coming to school dressed to thrill.
It sure would have been nice to be with a soulmate for 50+ years.
