got dumped

I dated the person who ultimately became my wife for almost 6 years before we got married..... We have been married for almost 34 years. That's a total of nearly 40 years together. . . so far....

I remember not being able to breath when I was away from her, and I still feel the same way.

I'm sure there were times when she wanted to kick my butt out the door, and I probably deserved it, but we made it work. We have a great family life with three grown sons, and we attend Church (Catholic) regularly.

I'm not sure if our sons will follow our example. The oldest is 30. He has been married for approximately 1 year, and I'm not sure it will last. Number 2 is 29 and he seems to be comfortable in his marriage. Number 3 is 27, and he is still out "tearing it up" if you know what I mean.
