Marriage isn't for the faint of heart. It's not always pretty. That part about "for richer or poorer" & "in sickness and in health" is in the vows for a reason! It's Happily Married Husband and Wife Week. If your spouse is still your best friend, works extremely hard, has been with you through triumphs and tragedies, has loved you even when you're at your worst and is someone you're proud to be married to, reply with the date and year you were married.

Well I’m not married yet....still a couple months to go...10/10/2020, but finally, at age 67, I can give a resounding YES to Ron being my best friend, he works extremely hard, we’ve supported each other through a variety of family ups and downs, dysfunctions and missteps, and he’s loved me even when I’ve been at my worst. He’s definitely someone I’m proud to get married to!!! 💕

I wonder if this article fits in on this thread, on the subject of choosing your man(?)

1. Does he get on well with his mother?

"A psychotherapist friend of mine would argue that this is all you really need to know.
If he respects and loves his mother, and they have a relaxed, happy, affectionate relationship, he's very likely to treat all the women in his life well. She was the first woman in his life and how he relates to her sets the benchmark for you.

They need to be close but not too close. If he hasn't cut the apron springs, move right along. The man who checks with his mother before making all decisions, is at her beck and call and has a pretty obvious adoration/pathological hatred thing going on, is to be avoided at all costs. Don't be lulled into a false sense of security if she lives far away: the most dependent children in the world often live the other side of the world from their parents. Physical distance means little."

That's the best advice my Mom ever gave me and she sure wasn't a Psychotherapist.
I was married for 42 years when he died at age 61.
Bowmore and I were married Nov. 4, 2007.
I married two men who checked all the boxes.
