Did your parent's marriage teach you anything about marriage? They didn't teach me as much as they showed me stuff about marriage. And that "stuff" (the arguing, the screaming, the cursing, etc.) wasn't good. I guess THAT'S why I'm still single at 36.

My parents were married for 43 years, the death of my father parted them. I love and miss you papa.

After 54 years (and counting), I think they did it right.

my parents have been married for 36 years and love each other but have very strange ways of showing it. :P I lasted 2 years and 2 months in my marriage, so maybe I am just a slow learner? who knows!

My parents have been married for 36 years. They taught me that marriage can be a good thing.

Did your parent's marriage teach you anything about marriage? It taught me the value and beauty of respect, trust, caring, loyalty, and protection. It taught me that you marry someone that is worthy of you, not someone who is going to pull you down, destroy your life, and break your heart.
