I've been married nearly 20 years. My wife and I have been together for longer than we've been apart.

I cannot imagine life without her. And yes we bicker a lot, but I wouldn't trade our connection and friendship for anything.

Except maybe to be able to talk to the dog.

Same. I adore my wife, fall more in love with her every day we’re together. It’s not always easy, but things that are worth it aren’t. Marriage is the best decision I ever made.

I did get married a little later than some, just had turned 30 the month before we tied the knot. Maybe taking my time and finding the right one helped, not sure. Just knew it was her almost right away.
