Women

OP
Sorry to tell you, but that is with every marriage. Every person is different and it does take time to know what is really important and agreeable to each other. But, I think it is important to make rules together so you don't step on each others toes. Also, do most things together. I have been married about 45 years ---34 to my current wife - took me 4 times to figure things out. Finally think I might have.

Sometimes it’s only after it’s too late does one realize…

The daughter of a friend confided as much… she said she listened too much to her friends, the same friends that all ended up divorced.

The irony is her ex remarried and doing well… he built his company and enjoying its success with his new wife…

At 50 the daughter of my friend has found men she would be interested in are no longer interested in her…

Let me chime in, I’ve been married to the same wonderful lady for 58 years come this December I knew her for five days when I propose and foolish she accepted. She raised the kids while I spent almost 3 1/2 years in Vietnam and I love her more today than when I married her, unfortunately 4+ years ago she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and has now been in a nursing home for over a year and a half she still knows me but little else, and all I can do is hold onto her if you have a good woman hold on tight. her disease and loss of memory pulls on my heart every day

Thanks for your sacrifice in Vietnam and beyond. We are all indebted to you for your service to our country.
I hope somehow things get better for you and your wife.

GBY.

....

To get back on the topic of women... I needed to make a QUICK run to town and asked if she needed me to pickup anything... 30 minutes later she was still making a list.

My wife and I share a shopping list in NOTES on our iPhones. If I update it, her's updates automatically and vice versa. Whoever goes to the store just lets the other one know "Hey, I'm going to the store, do you need anything?" and we update the list. If it's not on the list, it probably isn't coming home that day.

Very handy.

My addition is usually 2 gallons of milk and a couple packs of cookies, some dark chocolate, pistachios, granola, and kale and collard greens for the tortoise.

Praying for you guys. May the Lord of heaven and Earth be with you and your families during this time. May he fill you with peace and comfort in the coming days.
