How long married to your spouse (or common law partner)?

Dairy?

No just Angus beef cows. The green grass is pretty much froze now here so time to hook up the Ram to the trailer and start hauling the girls home.

I think in this case Brutal was hoping for just the marriage stats, and then it grew to cows, and then you happened to put the cherry on top with the huge list. Regardless of that I'm sincerely sorry to hear about your child's affliction, that is heartbreaking. I hope they can get the help they need.

Another somewhat interesting question would be to ask how long you dated your spouse prior to marrying them. I've always wondered if longer courting typically resulted higher success rates with marriage or if it's not really an indicator.

My wife and I dated for 2.5 years prior to marrying (27 years married so far), we didn't live together until we were married.

I too am curious. I have often thought about that when I look at my friends who have had marriages that failed. My wife and I bought a house together after dating 6 years and got married a year later. A side note, this Corona violence has shown we can be locked in the house together while working from home for a few months without a problem. This is important because when we retire in a few years the goal is to take off on a boat for far off places.

40-years married! We dated (long-distance) for just about 2-years. Met her while on leave at Thanksgiving. A friend asked me to go with him to a "disco" since his girlfriend would have five college girlfriends with her. I got the pick of the litter, including my friend's gal. Dating 300-miles apart before the internet or cell phones meant letters and a weekly (expensive) long-distance phone call.

Met my wife for the first time 8 months before we got married, was dating a friend of hers. The friend got orders to another duty station across the country and broke off things 4 months later. 2 months after that, dated the wife for the first time. 2 months later we got married. 7 years later, had our first child. Wife told Dad, "we wanted to make sure you knew it wasn't a shotgun wedding."
