Today, i finished reading a novel dedicated to, and i quote, " To my husband...to twenty years of memories and survival"

There were sad memories im sure, but they survived...and that's that! I would love to have that twenty years (and more), do you?

It was twenty six years ago that my wife said "I Do"

It was a bit of a shock for me, because I didn't think "she did"

The music they make nowadays is also crap. But "music" is not affected. It is not seasonal either. Music and love have a lot in common.

erm,i refer to the romance between them (read 'stolen glances,surprise gifts,sudden blushes')when i say so....forget the ending part... :-P it IS a treat to watch them both LOL (love 'em!)

i guess it all depends on the individuals involved.and the important thing is giving each other the space they need.

Love is not exposed to "generational fashion", marie. There is only one kind.

Bonnie and Clyde, they lived a lot together, and finally together they died. That's what I call 'love'.
