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!
Small things that make you feel happy
Birmingham Meet-ups Thread 2 - 2026


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!
