Trifextra: Love story in 33 words
We hated at 15; married at 19. Our friends set us up – really, SET us up – for failure. We dated toward success. 43 years come May I will still say I love you.
——————————————————————
The first TRIFEXTRA challenge: write a love story in 33 words – no more no less. The above is a true story.

Awww! Love the story and the picture! I am so in awe of a 43 year marriage that started so young. Congratulations on a huge accomplishment (coming from a measly 23 year old marriage in comparison)

Wow! 43 years is huge. There are time when I think long relationships are fragile because of their long, shared history, but your story reaffirms the steadfastness of time.
