I was at a wedding this past Saturday evening having those exact same cynical thoughts. The bride & groom are 19. He is barely out of Army basic training and she just started her dental hygenist schooling. Then I looked at the brides parents & grandparents. Her parents met in the 6th grade. I was in the 4th grade and remember them being an item back then. They've been happily married for 25 years last week. Maybe, just maybe she's had such great role models that they will make it. I hope so because I'd hate to see her sweetness eaten by the ugliness that young marriages can become. Like you I have a wonderful hubby and reminded myself that it is possible for the young & stupid to still make it work. Glad to hear you actually had a good trip with the Hornet. Are we sure the end of the world isn't near? Kisses, LA

Two really cool stories in one great day - can't stop smiling for you and hubby

Bravo for Hubby. A lot of us men get a bad , but there are a few of us decent ones out there. So did you try to stop the wedding? Sometimes I find myself saying "You poor saps" when I here someone is getting married. But then I realize not every woman is an insane, manipulative, vindictive, abusive bitch. Oops, sorry. Did I just let something out of the bag?

i am glad that there is a thawing there for you and her hornetness. it is always good. i think things will go the opposite way here for a while with both sets of inlaws mine and the wifes. there are a ton of us good men out there but the fuckers who screw it up for us really do screw it up for us.

I'm glad you had some downtime with your MIL  . Even if she decides to revert to type tomorrow, you'll know and she'll know it might have been different. My new SIL is VERY lucky in my mum. In her own way, Mum's kinda been waiting as patiently for her as my brother has been  . Because of my own terrible experiences, my parents are even more sensitive to the fact that this girl left behind everything to become a part of us and that the onus lies on us to make her feel at ease. Yay on your husband's commitment. He sounds like the real thing!

The mother-in-law thing is weird for me. I didn't get along with mine for the entire 20 years I was with my X...until he left. During the 20 years, I never gave her any reason to really dislike me...always sent her pics of the kids, bday cards, etc. I didn't want to fuel whatever it was that made things so uncomfortable with me. When the X left for greener pastures, she and I finally started talking. It was her son that kept the space between us. We get along great now, and my kids gained two grandparents. She gets upset at losing over 20 years with me, but she knew who her son was when I married him and never understood how I didn't. My point...you never know where life will lead, and the good energy you put out into the world this weekend will pay benefits forward in some way.

There are a lot of good guys out here. But like a lot of things, the bad ones get all the press. But... bowling? I always thought that was a stereotype for Wisconsites. Glad to know you have a new BFF. You can go lingerie shopping together.

I'm glad the day with your mother in law went so well. It sounds like potential progress to me. Yeah I try to stay an optimist most of the time. Sorry that you wont be seeing your hubby for a while. I hope the days fly by some how.

You mean people nowadays are still getting married? Good Lord! I thought that went out with the '90's! Thoughts from the Garden...

I am a card carrying pervert. Well, I don't actually carry the cards with me any longer, but I have them. And yeah for less than miserable time with the monsterinlaw. You can never know who will beat the odds. I am the only Me you get.

With the two kids, time will tell. My daughter and her husband planned their wedding when they were 15. Never married until they were 23 and are happily married to this day. Happy for you having a good time with the mother-in-law. I may be a weirdo pervert, butt I'm having a wonderful time!  You have a good week yourself!

They sound pretty young; the statistics are firmly against them but on the other hand, someone has to make it so.... Glad that things are in a holding pattern until tomorrow, I hope your friend gets nothing but goods news and all of the help and support she needs. I'm glad that while you might not like how your MIL treats you, you can put it aside and be pleasant to her. It' snot easy but I bet it's why you see glimmers of her forgetting to treat you badly, lol. And I'm not a weirdo pervert, I'm a nonconforming debauchee
