Happy V-Day - TTLG Forums

Morning has come. I'm sore, and I'm in the market for a new desk, kitchen table, and refrigerator.

Here's a secret you don't learn on tv kids: after 17 years of marriage, the sex gets better and more frequent. Just make sure the kids are out of the house.

Happy Valentine's day to me.

But does the wife?

In my case, yes. We've been through so much shit together, I feel sorry for people starting new relationships. There is nothing remotely appealing to me about that idea.

I say, leave out the wading through shit and get the sexy part down from the start. Because I won't wait 17 years for that. Anyway, glad you're so happy with what you got, fett. Despite outward appearance I'm pretty happy too, partly because I can come home completely wasted at 5 in the morning and let the speakers blare some good old blues on repeat until I fall over unconscious. That's got something for it. :)

Sorry raph. :(

I think I'm one of the lucky few in the world. We were best friends in high school, dated for 2 years, been married for almost 17, no major hitches so far. Most of that is because we're both fairly low maintenance and we never dated enough other people to make comparisons. I could also write a book about all the shit that's happened to us over the years (miscarriages, being told I was going to die, death threats, band tours, losing everything, clawing our way back up, adventure after adventure). Strong physical attraction backed up by the attitude that if you fuck with one of us, you've fucked with both of us, and we will fuck you up.

We also share money and decisions, defer to one another's expertise and experience, agree on the major stuff, and don't worry about the small stuff. It makes us impossible to ask for marriage advice from, because we really don't understand the stupid things most people fight about.

AND we both forgot it was valentine's day yesterday until I saw this thread. :laff:

You're both aliens then, aren't you? And your planet was destroyed by some mad scientist? :weird:

You and your wife are extremely lucky people Fett. I sincerely envy you, but also wish you both the best of everything. After all you've been through I'd say you deserve it.

I almost had that. However, I'm with Kolya; I don't wanna wait 17 years for things to be the best ever. But I'm not looking forward to starting over again, either. The thought is somewhat daunting.

I think I'll go play another FM then. :p

Dia, don't think about it then. When it happens it happens. Its usually when you least expect it, you'll meet someone, and when the time is right for you. I know you are still healing yourself. Don't put that kind of pressure on yourself, not worth it. Love will find you again, when you are ready. :)
