my parents celebrated their 25th the same year tony and i got married. so now 21 for us, it'll be 46 for them.
they have a good marriage. the exact opposite would be tony's parents. they've been married as long--and have been miserable together the whole time. they say misery loves company, so they must love each other a lot. so un-fun to be around. i'm in the same type boat as packer--we are each others best friend. it's amazing to me how many people treat their spouse poorly, with little respect-they treat a total stranger better! this is the person you supposedly want to spend your life with, how can you not treat them the BEST?! someone asked me the other day about tony....i know what it was, we just bought a carport so we could clear out the garage. we both had to park in the driveway, since the garage was full of bass boat, wheelers and lawn mowers. guy at work said he wouldn't have dared even ask to park his boat in their garage-that's his WIFE'S SPOT. single car garage.... i told him i treat tony right, and he does the same for me. yeah, sometimes one of you has to give--much of the time we're both offering to BE that one! i'd do anything for him and he knows it. don't get me wrong, i don't wait on him hand and foot. it's a shame that some think that giving to someone somehow equates to being their maid or servant. i shake my head when i hear people say 'i don't need a man/woman to take care of me'. they're looking at it the wrong way. then they find someone, and treat them like an accessory to wear when they choose, or leave at home when they don't!

Yeah we both took up bowling just this year to spend more time together on the weekends with friends. I'm a 120 handi and she's well she's getting better. ha ha She holds a 75. High game of 165 for me and 130 for her this year so far. I'm just starting to putting the hook to the ball instead of rolling it straight down the middle. I need to get my own ball with finger tips in it. I always seem to hit north of Brooklyn or all the way left. We're geting better as time goes on and we're having a blast doing it. What about yourself?

We get married because for so many years, here in our country--and throughout the world, it was, and still remains to many, what is natural, what is expected of us.
Regardless of what one may project or maintain, solitary living and the constant aloneness of it isn't natural. It goes against our flock and our nuturing instincts as humans. We are not unlike the four legged creatures that walk with us each day, residing on this planet. People need the company of others, if not in marriage, then in relationships as lovers, or as friends. Sometimes, both, if one is exceedingly fortunate. Such relationships are wonderful in so many ways because they allow our finest gifts to be shared, our thoughtfulness, our interests, our desires, our joys, sorrows, and our difficulties. Throughout this daily living thing though, if one gets to the point that they find themselves "having too work to hard at it" the relationship becomes endangered. And in all liklihood, it will wane, and fail. In the meantime, we keep trying because it is natural to us--to love and to be loved--whether we are married in church or living in partnership with the individual that we chose, that one individual who saw something special in us. These relationships work as long as we believe in one another, and sometimes when they end, we are blessed because, though we may part, there will always be a bond. And if we both realize and remember what we had, we know, beyond all doubt, we will always be friends. Always.

My feeling is it is very improbable that one will ever find the perfect mate. It is wonderful to think you have, but it unlikely. So that leaves us married folks to work through the changes that must occur in any relationship.
The respect I have for my wife has grown because she is so damn sweet. I know she is not the perfect mate for me. We are interested in very different things. We go our own ways on many occasions and are very comfortable with it. But when I take a close look at her, and see how good a person she is, it astounds me. And heck she may not even love me as deeply as I love her, but when a person is so sweet... I got lucky. Seriously, how can one not love a sweet good person? Even if she left me I could not stop loving her. And I would be happy if it made her happy not to have me around because she deserves the best.

Most guys who get married do it because they are forced to.
