Maybe I am a hopeless romantic, but when asked how our marriage has done so well (coming up on 25 years of marriage, 20 years of wedded bliss), I always say: Don’t marry the person you think you could spend the rest of your life with. Marry the person you could not spend the rest of your life WITHOUT. I did that. (And, of course, it goes without saying that babies ought to FOLLOW marriage, not precede it.— Just my opinion, but in this case, the correct one.)
“Marry the person you could not spend the rest of your life WITHOUT.”
Great advice.
