    I LOVE that someone even thought to start this thread! I've been happily married for going on 22 yrs now (still beating the odds after marrying at 21yrs old-yikes). The smartest thing I ever did was marry my best friend and I thank God for leading me to such a wonderful man.

    Very happily married for 18 years. When we got married I told my husband, "Okay, this is a 60-year contract here. After that, we'll renegotiate for the next 60."

    We will be married 37 years in June, and like most everyone else...there have been ups and downs....good and bad.....but I am SO glad we have stayed together through it all. I think the key is that it really does take work, lots of it, but that isn't anywhere in the fine print on that marriage license! Mine is perfect for me and I love him great big bunches! :)

    31 years here. If something ever happened to him I'd stay alone the rest of my life because no one could ever live up to him.

    I feel the same way. I do hope I'm wrong about that because I do know there are lots of amazing men in the world. I gave birth to two of them so I know it's true.
