    My parents are still together, going on 21 years in February.

    My dad, however, was married before he got with my mom. So this is his second marriage.

      Mine are. It's pretty insane seeing how many aren't though. I know of a lot who aren't.

        My mom passed away a few days after she gave birth to me. My dad did not remarry until I was almost five and he and his second wife eventually divorced. This is the reason me and my dad are so close.

          Parents haven't been together since before I was born.

                I'm sorry to hear that man. That's great you and your dad are really close.

                Personally, I have never seen my dad. I know his name: John Affeldt. Honestly that's about all! I am happy my last name isn't Affeldt though. I would've been called on first in class and that would've been terrible.

                    Yep...been together for..27 years I think. Come to think of it, none of my blood relatives have ever been involved in a divorce.

                      Currently yes (24 years) but I'll be surprised if it lasts past the first part of '09 really.

                        My parents are still together. My grandparents on my father's side divorced when my dad was 18 and both remarried and are still married with their new spouses (Well, my grandpa passed away a year ago). My grandparents on my mother's side were married for 53 years before my grandpa died on Halloween. Interestingly, their anniversary is on Christmas Day.

                          Yes, something like 24 years I think.
