My wife and I were happy for twenty years. Then we met.

About This Quote

If you have been married for twenty years, you should be good at it by now. When you get married, you think, “This is it.” But a year ago, a friend of mine did a survey and found out that 80% of marriages start to fail in the second year. If you think that your spouse is going to make your life complete, you’re going to be very surprised when the honeymoon period goes away. I don’t know if my wife and I are on the verge of divorce or not.

Probably not. Maybe we just had some good years that we didn’t realize were just that.
