My grandparents on both sides made it to more that 50 years of marriage.

My brother has been married for over 40 years.
My wife's brother has been married for over 40 years.
I married late in life because it took me longer to find my wife so I am the newbie with just 24 years working on 25 years for us.
As a kid I grew up in the Leave it to Beaver world. All my friends had two parents at home, Mom & Dad. Dad worked and mom was at home when we get home from school. I was probably in 6th grade before I had ever heard of divorce.
I understand that is not the way the world operates now. People get married and divorced at the drop of a hat now.

I'm only 44 and that's pretty much how I grew up. My folks are high school sweethearts and have been married for 48 yrs.
