I've been married 45 years to 5 women....nope just kidding. I love my wife. She doesn't always appreciate my sense of humor....well seldom, but we have a great retired life.

first love

met at 17. Off and on. Married at 25. 7 moves, 5 states, 3 children, highs and lows, better and worse … then even worse. No infidelity or abuse, just life.

solution = got a spiritual life & lowered expectations

entitlement and selfishness slipped away, priorities were realigned. We’ve been happier than ever, have everything we need and neither had to comprise. What a concept. Wish we had figured that out 20+ years ago

Held off answering this one for a while, but here goes . . . married to first wife (second love -- first one a wash), married 45 years. They've been great years as opposites attract.

A smart man can tell his wife from a mile away. Get her up close, doesn’t tell her anything!

my ex drank herself to death about eight years after I got tired of her drunken antics and kicked her out. Before we hooked up, I didn’t know that she drank at all. She kind of soured me on trust issues. BTW, I don’t drink at all, zero. Never have.

Was married. I was his third wife, he was my first husband. I’m now widowed. The poll doesn’t have that option. He passed 10 days before our 29th anniversary, five years ago.

Very sorry for your loss. And also sorry I overlooked not including widowed.

I was a player, lost count over the years....once I met her, I knew those days were over. 35 years ago in October. Would not change a thing.

Second time for me, First for her. Met in college, married the week before we graduated together. Drove to Las Vegas for our honeymoon in my (our) 71 Mercury Comet GT (4sp. no a/c), accompanied by her mother, her brother and her aunt visiting from NY! No, it was just me and the bride in the Comet, they flew! Had a blast! Still are! Celebrating 44 years 9June!

you met in college and she is your second marriage? or you met in college and she is your second love?

Married my first serious love thirty-seven years ago this coming Wednesday. Hasn't always been easy, but it's been good!

Married in 1980 right out of college. Separated 1981. Divorced 1982.

Married again 1990.

Saw my first wife's name on a list of deceased alumni in 2015. Did a search and saw she died in 2004 at 46. Last saw her in a bookstore in the early '80s. She didn't see me. Still very sad at her passing.
