It makes me so happy to see so many of you are married for so long and still consider your husband your best friend. I was married for 12 years and could never have called him my best friend...I assumed everyone eventually "settled" and that it was how life was.
But we ended up getting divorced, and I assumed I would be happier being alone than living with anyone else again. I didn't think the payoff was worth the work and frustration.
But then I met my sweetheart, and even though I swore I wouldn't do it again I did, and we have been together for 5 years. I love him more everyday and I'm pretty sure hes still crazy for me too, and I hope that 30 years from now we feel the same way. Every now and then I think of what my life would have been like had I stayed in my first marriage, and I can't believe how happy I am now.
Congrats to all of you!
