Was in a long term relationship (living 'over the brush' as they used to say) from 18 yrs old to 30. For last seven and a half years I've been 'professionally single' :P Other than 1 year spent pining over D, and then 3 months dating him...that was an interesting experiment, but really, single suits me best

My ex and I were friends about a couple years, "dated" a year, lived together two years, were married almost 12. Been divorced 6.
That's enough longevity for my lifetime. Damn I'm old.

Kitsune and I met in the spring of 2005 and got married spring of last year, so we've been together four years and married for one.
I took his last name because I absolutely hated my maiden name. I enjoy confusing people with the name's strange spelling. |

Awesome, fargon. I think those are the secrets: don't stay mad (forgive minor transgressions) and laugh a lot.
Happy couples make me smile.

I've been dating my boyfriend for a year and uh...3 months, so that puts me JUST into the 1-3 yr category. We started dating (officially) on January 13th last year, so sometimes our monthly "anniversaries" fall on friday the 13th, and it's fun
My longest relationship was just over 4 years. (P.S. We don't celebrate monthly "anniversaries", but it amazes him that I like to be with him, so he'll remind me every month anyway.)

I met jinx when I was 19 and she was 17. We didn't actually get 'together' until the end of that great summer. It was really a great summer..... That was 1990. We got married in Feb of 98. Before that, we were married 11 times in previous incarnations for a grand total of 450 years together.

7 years in June and they have been amazing. My husband was a godsend for me and he feels the same way about me. We met online in a AOL chatroom for 30 somethings (He was 37 and I was a month away from being 40...).
BTW, just out of curiosity, what is/was your astrological signs? Ours is Pisces/Capricorn, which is supposed to be a very complementary match-up. |

I was 25 in 1990, living with my soon to be husband. I remember wild in love. It was nice, if not practical, for us.
