When I was 19, I started going out with a girl and we dated for 3 years and then got engaged. About a month later, her sister left her husband and moved home. Everything went to hell in a hand basket after that and we broke up. She said she thought she was too young. 6 months later she married some other dude.
About a month later, I met this girl at a Christmas party at my god parents house. Her sister was married to their son. About 6 months after meeting her, I ran into her at a bar and we started dating. We dated for a year before I asked her to marry me. It took her a week to give me an answer. I thought I was done with her until she agreed. That should have been my sign. A year later we got married. The first couple of years were great until we started having kids. The next 10 years were hell. Finally we went to a marriage counselor. After meeting with her twice, the counselor told me she didn't need to see me anymore and had to focus on my wife. She straightened her out and we've been HAPPILY married ever since. 30 years.

At the end of our first date we sat in her driveway and talked about our future together. She was 16, I was 19. Engaged 3 years later and married 2 years after that. We celebrated our 37th anniversary the end of September, she died a month later. Feels like the life's been sucked outa me

Sorry to hear of her passing. Our condolences. Sounds like a good run though!
