    erm, married, now divorced, living on his own as far as I know, how long ago? Early 1970's if my memory serves me.

    I was 15 he was 18 - that was a long time ago 1975 - he's a BankManager now and sometimes I think it would have been quite nice to be married to a bankmanager then I remember that I broke off our engagement because he was soooo boring. He'd make a calculation in a notebook to see if we could go out or not - not very exciting when you are a teenager :lol:

    I remember boyfriends and the first husband but I did not actually know what true love felt like until I met the current Mr DD. It still feels the same after 23 years. My heart still turns over when I hear his key in the door, or when I look at him snoozing on the sofa. It turns over even more rapidly when he buys me beer! :grin:

    Julie? Your answer made my eyes leak. DD

    My first love was when I was still at school at the age of 16 ( he was 17) He was every teenager's dream- very good-looking, sweet, loving, and very generous. I was madly in love with him for three years until I went off to college in London, but he stayed home in Yorkshire. After a year of being apart, I eventually broke up with him. He wanted to get engaged, but I wasn't ready for that. It was painful to finish with him, but I was much too young to get married, so it was the best thing to do.

    The last thing I heard, he had married a nurse..........another Joan :grin:

    My Mum used to see him sometimes while out shopping, and apparently he got even more handsome as he got older. See what I missed :!: :lol:

    PS. If you're reading this, Jeff, thanks for the memories :grin:

    Mine was a neighbour and we met when we were both 5. I adored him for the next 11 years until I left home to work and he met a tall, leggy, long blonde hair, pretty girl. He married her, had 2 beautiful sons, divorced her and is now living with someone. I still see him from time to time and I still think he's gorgeous. I'm very much in love with my OH and we've been together for almost 28 years now. I wouldn't change him for the world.

    Hiya,

    I married mine :grin:

    Met when I was 18, he was 17!! Few dates, then went our 'seperate ways'. Met again when I was going on 23, him just 22, and that was it! 20yrs later we're still as loved up as before.

    Met my lady when I was16, she was 17 at the time...she was a morris dancers and I was on the Carnival Committee locally. I had never gone out with a girl before, it was all new to me...believe it or nor I was a quiet one. We went out for four years before we got married in 1971, we love with the in-laws for tweve months until we got our council house, then, much to my delight we had our first daughter, followed by another shortly afterwards. We then tookthe step of buying our own house. Apart from time off having children, my wife has never had time off from work and she's 61 now...the countless times I have been off, and, eventually I finished work altogether, she's been the one that's had to care for me. I have never had the experience of going with another and never wanted to either, but, I know, I certainly got a gem when I married her all those many years ago, and, could never imagine life life with another lady. The love she shows to me, my two daughters and four granddaughters, how could I ever wish for more...and yet she soldiers on, turning out at 6.30 every morning, never complaining...I'm a very lucky guy.
