Ours will be 19 years on July 4. Some days I can't believe it's been 19 years! I remember when my parents were married 19 years!!
I still like him at least 95 percent of the time and we are both too lazy to pack so we'll be together for a long time. :)

Wow!! There are a LOT of happily married quilters on here--and the years--Wow!! Very impressive!! I love reading the replies--the contentment rings out loud and clear.
I have so many questions I want to ask--like what was the topic that made you argue the most? (ours was HIS parents! But all is fine now.) Or what got you through the tough times? (commitment) Or how you met (long story here)?

barnbum, Happy Anniversary. Congratulations on 25 years and sending prayers for many more together.
On December 1st, we celebrated 30 years together. Thinking about it that morning took my breath away. I sat in amazement that so many wonderful years spent together and so many more to come for us. Yes, I love my best friend more each day.

Wow. I had to stop and think--it will be 40yrs in March. We've been together since we were 16. OMG am I old!!! I think I'll keep him.
Of course we've argued-mostly about money and in-laws when younger. Now nothing is that earthshattering to waste time arguing. Some of my friends have lost husbands-death and of course one to the stereotypical "younger woman" LOL. I guess we either appreciate one another more or take each other for granted. Hmm-lots to think about here.
Congrats to all who have made such committments and that should be proof to all you newbies (at marriage) that it can last. This was a fun and inspiring thread!!
