I&#39;ve been married well over 50 years, of course that was to two different women&#33;&#33; <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":tongue:" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> <br /><br />Roe and I have been married for 15 years now and have been &quot;together&quot; for over 20.  There certainly is much to be said for marrying your best friend.  We got it right this time&#33;&#33;  The minister who married us said during our counseling session &quot;You&#39;ve both been through this before and you know where you screwed up, so don&#39;t do it again&#33;&quot;  Fantastic advice and it works for us everyday.<br /><br />Never thought in my wildest dreams that I&#39;d marry a lady from the NYC area.  I&#39;ve always hated that NY accent.  Loved the sound of those Southern Belles and number one for me were ladies with English accents.  Funny how things turn out in life.<br /><br />How can you not love someone who has shared 51 cruises with you??  <img src="http://www.cruisecrazies.com/community/images/forum/tr-emoticons/wub.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":wub:" border="0" alt="wub.gif" />
