hubby and I have been married for 25 so far, but since time is flying so fast lately, I am sure we are catching up to you very quickly!

You and your mate have been married for 43 years, eh?

Some people have been married for 40 or 50 years -- just not to the same wives or husbands --

But may God continue to bless you-all's faithfulness to each other exclusively.

Coming up on 30 years myself.
The trick to me is remember the little stuff. We still say please and Thank you to each other. We tell each other “I love you” everyday. We don’t buy each other gifts for Christmas, Valentines, Anniversary, instead we do, or buy something we both want. The Hollywood/TV myth that if you don’t run out and buy your wife a new diamond every week she’ll hate you, is BS.
Maybe I got lucky. She likes NFL Football, and NASCAR. To make sure I was being fair, she “talked me into” watching “So you think you can dance” this season. I hate it but it’s something she loves, soooo.
Both sides pitch in both sides win.

Congratulations!.

That is quite an accomplishment these days. I feel like a youngster—my wife and I will hit 30 this December. God bless you.

I've never entered the second week of a relationship.
