    I was married once, too. It made a lifetime seem like hell! (Just kidding. It wasn’t that bad. We were young and dumb.)

    You have to both work at it to make it last.

    Good for you channce. I’m still good friends with my ex. When I was dating my current wife we went on a camping trip to the ocean with my ex and her husband. Since I am a photographer, I also photographed their wedding and while I was single, I also spent every Thanksgiving with her and her husband. Sometimes relationships just end with no party responsible for causing the marriage to end. I looked back at the years I’d invested in the relationship and decided why end a great friendship.

    Our institution is quite nice, thank you very much. In 21 years we’ve had fires to put out and repairs to be made to walls, ceilings and floors, but the work, like a great symphonic composition, resonates in those walls, ceilings and floors and we are proud of it.

    When people ask my sister how long she has been divorced, she always gives a big sigh, rolls her eyes, and replies: “Not nearly long enough!”

    My wife and I have been married for 60 years this year—She’s been married to me for 30, I’ve been married to her for 30, seems like 60 all together…

    Really, we are satisfied pretty well with each other, just never go to bed mad, irritated, yes, but not mad.

    Congrats channce, Burgundy and js305! My husband and I are only coming up on our third anniversary, but so far so good. Can definitely report on the truth of “love is a verb,” but it’s worth it.
