44 years ago today, this lovely woman decided to commit to spending the rest of her life with me.
I just couldn't bring myself to tell her what she was getting herself into.
Fortunately for me, she still hasn't noticed the gravity of her mistake
I'm glad love is blind and my wife has also been able to overlook my many defects.

She's still trying.

(22 posts)It's nice to hear good news and I am happy for you, Congratulations! (my wife and I are up there also). There is so much bad news these days. As I grow older I realize just how scummy so many people are - whether it's from the news or looking back at the people I worked with over the years. Enjoy your time together! Time is fleeting.

(3,288 posts)her judgment as a catastrophic error. From the small sampling of your posts that Ive read, her judgment of you was excellent. As was yours of her.
Congratulations and happy anniversary!
