Twenty years of togetherness

Marriages are made in heaven

Twenty years of togetherness.png

I never wanted to marry a girl who would wear spectacles, but when I went to see her, she was not wearing and I forgot to ask, she never thought that I have such reservation. She is an Engineer and wanted to do a job, but I wanted a housewife. She did not tell me that she wanted to do a job but she told to my father. My father did not think, that he should tell me that, rather he thought, we can discuss after marriage. Had she told me and insisted on doing a job, I would have said NO. But all that did not happen and we were destined to be together and since then twenty years have passed, and still counting on...isn't all this per-destined ?

We both managed to deal with several problems of our joint families, that came across our path in these twenty years. At times, it tend to affect our relationship, but then conscious effort, commitment to each other and adaptability to situation has helped us come this far. Growing the two beautiful gifts (kids) that God has given us, has motivated to keep aside all the problems that comes our way.

To make two decades of our togetherness special, she wanted to buy some Gold Ornaments - every time she goes to buy, she says this would be the last, but that never happens. Last time she took away all my Bonus, but later I was thankful because Gold price has almost doubled since then. Ladies of India collectively have more gold than the Reserve Bank - the best asset in times of risk.

She always seeks my help in choosing the right one that would go well on her and after understanding her requirement, it did not take much time for me to find out. A second opinion was sought from our kids and they both said YES - now we have more confidence.

All set and even the card was given for the payment, and unfortunately the transaction was declined because of the limit on transaction amount. Just then she came back and said I want a little change - thank God, that payment did not go through.

So she preferred to bring that beautiful black bangle, the cost was double, but she knew it will be granted.

Coming back she was looking at another necklace - you said this was last ? No, I was just seeing it.....

A lot of work in the day (duty never ends), so we decided to celebrate in the afternoon, kids have booked the movie "Jurassic World: Rebirth" and a dinner at a restaurant - now they plan how we celebrate.....More to come on that....

How are you, dear friend @sanjeevm?

When there's love in a couple, everything becomes easier and they come to an agreement, for the good of the family.

No doubt in these twenty years you've overcome many obstacles. That's what life is about: resolving differences as you go.

20 years is a long time, a lifetime. Congratulations.

Beautiful purchase! Enjoy it!

Happy 20th anniversary!

Haha just sitting down for some morning curation, I was thinking about how long my wife and I have been together. A bit longer than you and just as happy.

While I believe there are many things out of my control (I just work on controlling my reactions and decisions to that chaos) I am not one to believe in predestination. Just the hard things that, when done, lead to situations that just feel right.

I am proud of you and I for the example we are setting for our children in doing what it takes to create family happiness and stability. Separation may be much more common in my part of the world where marriages are certainly not made in heaven ;)

Dedicating yourself to another is a delicate balance and finding the happiness in the moments of imbalance help us make it through with love. ❤️

Exactly, it takes lot of courage and patience to absorb the pain and do the duty, and our kids need to learn that at home. Separation is not the answer, thank you so much.

wow! congrats tp u! :) 20 years is no small number. u WERE destined to be together.

and shopping, shopping! :P isn't it so true.. women and the shopping~ :P

I found it odd that even the official who married me and mt wife asked me to 'let' my wife work.. I guess that is something debated in Asian culture.. not in usa, though.. it is very common to have both partners working.

I guess that is something debated in Asian culture.

I think, that is more of a decision between the couple, here also many work to earn more, but then somewhere they will have to compromise.

Do you know what I love most about this article? It’s how you both faced your challenges together. Marriage can be full of ups and downs but I love how you both made it work
You should be role models to younger ones out there

Problems will always exist, my friend, and even more so in couples who have lived together for so many years. But the important thing is that they have been able to overcome it all and form a great family. At the same time, giving our wives some gold every once in a while is a good idea to spoil them. I wish them many more years and, at the same time, I wish them all the happiness possible.

After spending so much time together, we get to know each other. The good thing is that both of us listen to each other. These 20 years will not be easy. There will be many family problems, but it is important to manage them. It is not that we leave our family. Problems happen in every home. Happiness can only be found by living together.

@sanjeevm Congratulations Sanjeev, on twenty years of togetherness and many more to enjoy and cherish forever. I have completed 15.

Long time ago, an elderly in the family said..."Odd makes a Couple" and this is so true in every aspect of married life, which is indeed a complex mixture of joy and sorrow to be managed with hand in hand and moving ahead in life, with ample of love, care and happiness, always and forever!!!

Best Regards,
Amit

Time passes so quickly!

We all love LOVE, and wish you many more years together. Women engineers are a bit less complicated, I think, as they've been taught to understand systems and every man has his system. I may be wrong
