Well, May 28th is our anniversary.
We got married in 1993. This means 16 wonderful years have passed already.
My marriage this time is going very well. I have been breaking my record every day. Very good indeed.
I met my wife in Britain. On thinking back, when I proposed, I was married. Not only that, she was married too.
Every time I say this, people, especially young ladies, start showing interest in our story. Yes, they are interested in our “immoral relationship”.
Actually, it was not as interesting as you might think. It is rather quite boring story.
At that time, I was getting divorced anyway from the reason that was not related to my wife. My wife was in a similar situation. It is not as romantic as some movies.
Thereafter, I stayed in Britain and my wife went back to Japan. In those days, having an internet at home was beyond imagination. International telephone call was still expensive. And to add insult to injury, my salary was very poor. There was no way I can afford frequent international phone call. During these years, we wrote letters almost every day. Just like uploading blog every day. I have and will never write letters that often.
The only good thing of our previous marriages was we did not have any creatures who carry our DNA.
After more than 10 years after we got married, our memories are fading. We actually forgot our anniversary. We successfully noticed about one month later. We laughed off. Thanks God, I was not the only one who forgot it!
I learned in a hard way. I gave a bunch of flowers and a present to her this year. On the exact day of anniversary, not one month after that.
Thank you very much for being with me for the last 16 years. How much longer we can be together? 10 years? 20 years? Or 30 years?
You make me happy. You make me a better man. You are my wonderful better half.
