Me too. Whenever I see Glenn Close I think of that role.

Here's a pic of us at that prom. We got married 6 years later and we've been married 49 years. It's been an amazing journey.

We were 18 and 17 when my wife and I met and got married 1 1/2 yrs later. We've been through some serious life rough patches that luckily most people will never go through but we always pull through better than ever. Can't imagine going through life without her. She truly is what matters most to me. Crazy thing is is that we spend almost every day together and still can't get enough.
We don't have any children and we fully believe that helps. We get to do what we want, when we want to. We don't argue about money and both of us equally have expensive hobbies and bring in the same amount of earnings. We do however have polar opposite personalities. She is confrontational and I'm not, I'm friendly and shes more shy. This helps with balancing each other out. Seems like people tend to try and find a mate who is too much alike and then they tend to fail fairly quick. Makes the relationship too stale or something. |

I never had a high school sweetheart... or even a college sweetheart. I guess you could say I was a heartbreaker

Thanks. I think Sean Connery was the Bond of that time. I was a goofy beach kid who rented a tux! Bond = DB5 Aston Martin. I = '61 VW. BUT, I got the girl!

When I first met my wife she was a first-year in college and I was fourth-year. We moved in together during her third year and lived together for about four years before getting engaged. We've now been married over 40-years. She still puts up with me.

First date was summer before senior year. We dated all of senior year, then I went away for school. Stayed in touch, and saw each other when we could, but had no commitment. 4 years later, she came to visit me. I proposed, and we married that November. Will be 31 years next month. If anybody ever said that any marriage is easy, they are lying. That said, I wouldn't trade her for the world. Best life partner I could ever ask for! We went to senior prom together, not sure if we have pics of that, but I will look.

Not a prom pic, but from the pic booth at the mall, and also the hospital auxiliary ball. Have no clue where the prom pics are! I was a lot better looking then. She hasn't changed much!
