Met my partner when i was 13 at swimming pool he asked me out and we agreed to meet after getting changed, but my mate and me decided not to so he was stood up .... 6yrs later i got chatting to a guy on CB radio and was shocked to discover it was him... that was 12and half year ago. Been with him since that night and still not married, We have a home together and a child.. just seems like its a piece of paper now. After all i can always assume his name. Amanda

Hello Sandra, I met my husband in August 1946, we were engaged at Christmas 1947 and were married in June 1949. We will have been married 56 years in 9 days time. We have 2 sons and 4 grandchildren and are still happy. Norman goes out on a bus trip today as he has Dementia and Depression and it gives me a break, so I am making the most of it. Best wishes to all from Sylvia in Perth Western Australia
