42 years!

47 years ago I was 16 and I met a young man. (I’ll save you from the math, I’m 63)   I can’t say it was love at first sight, but it turned into love quickly.  We were 17 when he first mentioned marriage, he said something like when we’re old married people with kids and I panicked.. I wasn’t ready to be married and certainly not to him.  So I dumped him… for all of two months.  It was a miserable two months and we finally got back together.  Then we graduated from high school and he moved to NH to go to college.  A year later I followed him and a year later on June 20th we were married and now 42 years later we’re still happily married and I love him more every day.
