getting married at 82.....why!
 

carol channing weds at 82

now this is really something that makes you go hmmmmm.

i cant imagine getting married now. at 82 i hope i am signing my dnr papers!

hahahahaha! Ditto.

why the hell not?

everyone's entitled to a little bit of nooky and at 82 why the hell not?

actually given the increasing number of centarians, it's probably even money that the marriage could last 10-15 even 20 years. and that's longer than most marriages for people in their 20s-50s

:)

100% :thumbsup

This my third marraige is by far the best.

youre telling me either one of them looks as if they will last 10-20 yrs? other then companionship (and thats if they can even remember they have a partner), what the else could anyone at that age offer another person? help with the diaper change?:)

Companionship...when was the last time someone here called their grandparents (if alive) or dropped by and visited them...

gee...just cause they are older, doesn't mean they don't feel like us young'uns :winkwink:

let the old people be happy

i talked to mine today as a matter of fact :winkwink:

she is a sharp cookie (was one of the original WASP's in WWII)but she will be the first at 85 yrs/o to tell me that her time is quickly coming.

I bet it is Charly.:winkwink:

because you could be dead tomorrow and if you found someone you love you mine as well spend today with them

:1orglaugh

Yeah but your wife also checks these posts, so you're biased because you're trying to get laid tonight :thumbsup

My great great aunt got married at 98.. Her first marriage lasted like 75 years, and she was lucky enough to find love again at the ripe age of 98.. She's 100 now and still going strong, so is her husband, who's 85 :P

im not saying its not a good thing to "love" someone at 82. i am saying why get married when you can easily spend time with that person without the paper. the paper means nothing in all reality. hollywood breds them a bit strangly i'll tell ya.

Yeah, but you have to consider that a lot of people that age are very old-fashioned.. They were raised in a time when you didn't express love and affection or make love to someone who wasn't your legal spouse. It's their outward showing of what they feel inside, aI think it's so awesome :)
