Tomorrow is the 16Th anniversary of Maria and I. For both of us it is the longest period we have been with the same person. It has to be one of the most difficult task to adjust or reach that balance where one is happy and comfortable with each other for those 20, 25, 30 and more years. Hooray for all of those folks who are still in love and making that life work. May you always be friends and supportive of each other. Good for you.
The American Heritage dictionary defines love as An intense affectionate concern for another person. It's a shame that more folks haven't read this and committed it to memory. Don't get me wrong, my memory has slipped and I have forgotten this definition, but I feel that I'm always trying to remember and act on that definition.
I've also been known as the Reverend, the Reverend Sugardaddy, and the writer John Ehle once said of me, "I think you would be a great bear", he was referencing the movie "Winter People". What can I say to that.

Congrats!
For my wife and I it'll be 8.
Congrats on the 16 - give her a big 'bear' hug!
This June will be my 24th anniversary. My husband walked in to our college cafeteria one morning and I told my friends I was going to marry him, didn't know him, just knew I was going to marry him! It's a roller coaster ride for both of us, we are both stubborn and strong willed, but we make it work.
