LOL! I'll have to remember that. Got a friend who says that to his wife all the time. I'll pass it on to her.

Had another friend say something similar to his wife when she hit 38. Her response, "If you can't keep up with the one you have, why would you want two P/Oed at you?" I never knew coffee could fly 20 feet out of my nose before that day.

Beauty lasts maybe 15-20 years if your lucky leaving you with 40+ more years together after that....

Best to marry for compatability with each other. If your sole reason for having a life partner is physical looks, might as well pick out a stranger and buy em a house car and monthly payments and just cut out the middle man.

Heh

Amen, Brother. Not many men think like that, I'm afraid.

JonM hit nail on the head! i think that your wife ought to be your best friend as well as your wife. communication and compromise will go a long ways in keeping a marriage together.

WOC, i married my current wife because we get along and can talk about anything, she was my friend before we ever even started dating. she's not ugly by any means, but she's not a supermodel either! we accept each other for what we are, and have never tried to change anything about the other. i tell people the only thing i wanted to change about her, was her last name!
