How many years have you and yours been married, or together, whichever applies to you? Today is our 48th wedding anniversary, heaven only knows how we`re still together, you don`t get that long for murder, and I`ve come pretty close to committing that at times!

Terrible relationship with DIL - am I the problem?


My first lasted 34 years and then he left for someone else. It had it's ok moments and we had three fabulous children. We got married at twenty, and I was pregnant and too young to realise that it was not alright for him to threaten violence at regular intervals. I only wish I had the courage to have left him earlier, but my parents split up when I was very young, and I didn't want that to happen, I was always sure it was up to me to make it better. I got married to my DH 4years ago and every day is a joy. My only sadness is that it is unlikely to be as long as the other however I thank my lucky stars. So well done for you 48years!
