So here I was , young dumb and full of whatever . Met some chick at a fast food place , never met her before . Nice smiles back and forth , we kinda hit it off , we then didn't want to , but ,agreed ( talked into this by mutual friends we had ) to have a nice summer cook out the next day . Tommarrow is the 1/4 century anniverserary of that cookout . My how time flies by , we have not been apart since , except for when work called one or the other of us outta town . Silly Girl , I told her to go away , then I had some life crap happened and I told her to go away again and again. Silly girl wouldn't go away Waited till '95 ( no way I was rushing into that marriage thing ) and I picked a friday the 13th to get maried on ( 1/13/95 ). Silly girl said OK So here I am 25 years later . Silly girl has now spent more than half of her life with me and I with her . We enjoy our mini wedding anivers"s every Fri the 13th , Been thru as many ups and downs as most folks , and that silly girl still says " I Love you " back to me every day if I manage to say it to her first as she often beats be to it.

What about those times you dumped her to take off to parts unknown, to satisfy your self indulgence in the pursuit of Finer Trophies....You forgot about those already??? Alzhiemers catching up??? What is hanging up in your foyer??? A picture of her or a dead animal? not questioning the wisdom in your choices...but just sayin'...

Congratulations to you both.

Congratulations. Just celebrated half that with my "silly girl" July 3rd. A good woman is something a man shouldn't be without.

Just looking at some of the contradictory previous posts in regards to this thread...is all. The archives tell a whole different story...now I am not sure what to believe!

You say you've been married 25 years. From '95, that don't add up. You must mean '85. Congrats.

My 25th is just a few short weeks away. Made me remember to get my butt in gear to do something. LOL!
