Wedding in the Court House, at most 10 people.

Fancy home! Nope, but we call it "our paradise".

As you know, only kids with 4 legs and lots of fur.

Had my nice cars decades before we married. Now have a 2004 and a 2010, neither fancy.

We have Black Wire Fence around about half acre.

 

Hospital stays! Me for weeks, even over a month stays. My wife! Close to 20, but much shorter, days as opposed to my weeks and month stays.

 

I retired 20 years after I met my wife, and I seldom worked over 8 hour shifts, 5 days/nights a week. Struggles? Other than our health and my injury issues? Nah!

 

Together 51 years, married for 21. Still together, but she is now gone for 18 days, doing her In Home Pet Sitting Business.

 

"Words of Wisdom"? I used those all up with my co-workers decades ago.

 

"Experience"? Only speaking about "ours", everyone has their own.

Re: Words Of Wisdom From Those With Experience.

Do not agree. I find it to be a combination of both ideas. There is lots of great, and if you are lucky very little bad. It is what you make it.

Marriage is also about respect and having someone's back.

I also believe it can/should be a combination of both, or similar to both.

For me it's a combination of all those things.  We support each other through the bad times and enjoy the good times together.
