One of my little brothers got married on Saturday. They had what they called a Decades Dance at the reception. The DJ asks all the married couples come out to start dancing. As the song plays, they announce "If you've been married for less than 5 years, leave the dance floor". They go from 5, to 10, to 20, to 25 and so on and so forth. When they got to "If you've been married less than 40 years, exit the dance floor", there were 3 couples left. They lowered the music and asked all three couples to say how long they had been married and give a piece of advice to the newlyweds.
Couple one - Married 44 years: The wife spoke.
"Just have fun. Be able to laugh at anything and everything. It will get you through. Life's a ball, right?"
Couple two - Married 47 years: The wife spoke.
"Never go to bed mad. Don't leave an argument like that. Take a break if you have to, but figure it out."
Couple three - MARRIED 64 YEARS: The husband spoke.
"Just let her be the boss."
Words of wisdom!!
