mikex Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 Ok folks, yesterday was just the same ol Wednesday for me. Got up went to work, got home coached some baseball. Nothing major.Except that yesterday was 15 years I've been married. I love the woman I am with, sometimes I am an A$$ though. I thank God for her patients, else I would have been booted to the curb long ago.I jokingly say I just want to stay with her until we reach our 50 year mark together so I can get a picture in the paper.So anyways, we agreed not to do gifts because we are doing so much for my son in baseball and my daughter made Jr High Cheerleader (need pockets of money for this). What do I do, you guessed it, Got a card and an inexpensive gift. This upset her because she did not get me anything. Boy can't win for losing. She liked it anyway. I told her I just wanted go give her something so she will remember I love her.Now today I am working on the next 35 years.M Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bozodog Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 Good job, M. It's a girl thing that she "played angry". Best of luck, love and happiness through the next 35. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JDoors Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 Better the half-hearted anger over you buying her something than the smoldering silent treatment because you did not. Congrats on 15, hope to see your picture when the time comes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mikex Posted April 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 Even though marriage is the number one cause of divorce we will tough it out the best we can. I always get the last word in an argument......"Yes, dear".We jokingly tell people our vows said "till death do us part" only. Some folks do not know how to take this....M Quote Link to post Share on other sites
