It’s best to just page past the angry/disappointed/bitter posts on these threads. They’re sad, but most of us are realistic and happy with our lives. My husband and I began as friends. Then he went on vacation and I realized that I missed him. We’ve been married since 1983. He’s a truly good man and nice! He also has a great attitude toward life, which is crucial in a marriage.
I’m not surprised you have a good marriage, Trish. Yes, I probably should go past these posts but they are sort of amusing.
