Is he no longer able to carry you across the threashold?

Back at ya.

yeah … mid-life crisis and stuff, you know

At least he didn’t let himself go like you did

And you’re not the woman he married forty-five years ago.

True that.

“That one I divorced real soon. This one is Number 4, and he’s no prize, either. It seems that men don’t treasure my true beauty.”

He got old.

Does she have him trained?

I’m glad I’m not the man my wife married 51 years ago. That guy was foolish, impulsive and immature – and a lot of other things my wife liked in a man back then. Her tastes, fortunately, have changed as well.

I trained well. Became the man she always wanted me to be.

None of us are.

Nor the one you married 30 years ago, nor the one….

I’m TWICE the man I was when I got married 34 years ago….

That is identity theft at its worst.

Looking at the rollers in your hair, you’re not the woman he married 40 yrs ago, either! OY

Of course he isn’t. Wives want to “take the edges” of us husbands and remake us in how they believe they want us to be. Then, they are unhappy when we give up and conform to what they think they want.

Pot calling the kettle black honey. ;-}

NO ONE WOULD BE. SHE’S NOT THE SAME WOMAN EITHER.

Most people aren’t.

If you are the woman he married 45 years ago, he wouldn’t have married you 45 years ago.

Heck, I’m not even the guy I was yesterday, as Tennessee Ernie Ford said.. in his song Sixteen Tons.. another day older and deeper in debt.

“But I keep him around until my husband comes back.”

He’s more than the man you married forty-five years ago…

“…nor the next one nor the one I married the year after that, nor…”

He’d better guard her closely. A jewel like her probably commands a lot of attention when they go out.

She’s twice the woman though!

WOW. That was our last anniversary. Hehehe

We never are?

I really hope that you are not the woman that he married 45 years ago. If you are, he must have been deaf, dumb and especially blind…..

And you’re not the woman He married 45 years ago.

Reminds me of the story of the old couple talking in their car, in which the lady says, “Herman, we’re just not as close as we used to be,” and Herman says, “Well, I’m still right here behind the steering wheel.”
