Fifty two (52) years ago + some months we were young and in love. We were not wild, just young college students in love.
Yesterday (July 31) was DH & my 53rd wedding anniversary. We met in college & dated for 5 years. When people congratulate us on our long marriage, we tell them that we're just too cheap to get divorced.

I have friends whom have been married like forever. They tell me that they stay married for the kids. Neither of them want the kids.

Ours was working together and both considered the best at our jobs. I think we fought because neither wanted our co-workers knowing we liked each other. Once we did get together everyone says we make the best couple. We get along great, raised our kids the way we both wanted, both of us save and spend the same way, we each have our own hobbies and support each other.
Perfect example is both my Mother and oldest Brother passed away. My Sister lives an hour away and is executor of my Mom's estate and I'm executor of my Brother's. Things have been hectic but my wife spent many hours working with my sister (we don't get along with) helping clear out the house. I helped (I have a bad back) my Son move out the big furniture so that house can go on the market.
The second house my wife went to daily for about 10 days going through everything and clearing that house. My son and I helped and moved the big things but it was done 99% by my wife.
10 years earlier I helped her and her siblings with her parents house. We've now been married for 32 happy years after working together for about 25 of those we work together whenever possible. We talk things over plan our vacations together. She usually books the timeshare or exchange (we own 4) and I do the flight and car. We look over what each does so we don't have a reason to be upset when something goes wrong. In over 150 timeshare trips only once did we have a problem arriving a day early which was easily solved. Together is what works for us.
