Today, my husband and I celebrate having been married for 10 years!

We were married at the tender ages of 23 (not common for gen xers).

It's been quite a ride and many years were very, very tough. We wondered if we would make it or not.

A couple of years ago we declared that divorce was NOT an option. We made a promise under God and in front of our family and friends. That made a difference for us.

Since at least 50% of marriages end up in divorce, we feel pretty special! [Cool]

Congratulations! My husband and I are coming up on 8 years. Although marriage is definitely not easy, it is great to be with someone that will accept your apologies day after day and someone that will come home each day from work and remind you that of all the women in the world, he comes home to YOU.

We just celebrated our 11th. I noticed that my husband has become a "putzer." We're leaving the house and I'm in the car waiting and he's inside putzing. Is this something that comes with age?

Yes... my husband and I celebrated 21 years together on Sept. 1.

I've sit in the car waiting and waiting. Only to go in and find him sitting in front of the T,V.
It's always....well I didn't know you wanted to go right now.

Thought for awhile it was his hearing, he worked around jet planes in the Navy.
Other times, I wonder if he's doing it on purpose.

Let one of his buddies mention something about going to the gun range, he'll hear that when spoken in a whisper.

Strange not sure it's just a quirk or what but, you can tell him someting one day and the next day, if the subject is brought up...he doesn't always remember who told him or what day it was told on.

Anyone find that happening?
