Thank you, Chuck2u32, for reading my article, even twice! It might seem a bit confusing what I am experiencing, as I've been working as an actress many years and I'm aware of a lot of things happening in my mind and body what others usually wouldn't notice. I love exploring how we human beings function and I see myself a bit like a human guinea pig.
And wow, 48 years of marriage?! That's amazing. What a wonderful experience it must be. That takes a lot of commitment and patience. And I agree, respect and appreciation is probably the most important thing to have in a long relationship or in any relationship. Thank you very much for commenting and I wish you and your wife all the best. Happy Valentine's Day!
