I think we met in 1997, probably, but we got together in 1999. I was going out with her mate before that!

met at uni in '88, she was 19 I was 22. lived in rented accomm for a couple of years, then bought our first house in '90. that was a mistake (the area, not buying the house together)

got married in '99 1 year after finally moving out of the house in the crap area - finally sold it 4 years ago

faithful all the way

17 years week after next. Not married. Met at university - me 20, she 18. One child (aged 3).

My only regrets: not becoming a parent earlier and not having more than one child.

Together for just over 18 years, married for one week shy of 13 years.

Any idea what to get her. According to the book, 13th is 'lace'. I have already been warned off that........

Met 18 years ago, just gone. Doing a charity walk up Ben Nevis. Cystic Fibrosis really is a bitch...

Typical tale of boy meets girl - boy moves 100 miles away the next month, girl commutes most weekends as boy has own house. Then girl moves 5000 miles away to do voluntary work on the edge of Siberia. Boy assumes "We were on a break". 😳 Girl comes back. Girl finds job/house 30 miles away. Girl moves in with boy. Both up sticks and move 180 miles to get away from the south east. Get married. Have kids. Living - more or less - happily ever after.

Didn't think it was that long, but must actually be over 8 years, married over 4. Kids are 3 and 1.

Already better than, ahem, last time in so many ways. Oh, and it is genuinely and absolutely a coincidence that my wife witnessed my signature on my divorce papers, it is! I was seeing someone else at the time, funny how things work out though...

It'll be 17 years together on Nov 5th...we were mates at Uni together for a good year or so before a bottle of Lambrini for her, a bottle of vodka for me, and a load of mates who were sick of us prancing around each other without ever getting anywhere, that finally did the trick! 2 kids later life is great.

Half my life - 21 years. Lived together 20 years, married 18, 13 yr old daughter.

Had a good go at pissing each other off along the way, I had a good go at destroying everything a couple of years ago, finally realised we couldn't be without each other. We totally get each other. Best mates!

Wife. Met 27 years ago. Married 23, and will be divorced next year...

My actual OH. 2 years

It's sad. But there is not necessarily anything special about long durations of marriage, or mortgage...

Same here - totally with you on that. Why did no-one tell me (and make me believe them)?!
