His and Hers XVII  

His and Hers is a weekly discussion of a question or topic relating to marriage. On Friday, my wife and I each write our thoughts on the week's topic. I invite other bloggers to do the same with their spouses as an exercise in celebrating marriage. This week's question is:

This week's question is two-fold:
a) What was the stupidest thing anyone said to you at the beginning of your marriage?
b) How would you have responded if you had no manners or tact?

Mrs. Happy's response

a) (when we were still newlyweds) "You're young and in love, but just wait a few years and it'll wear off."
b) "You don't know the first thing about my marriage. Don't project your own misery onto me."

Curt's response

a) (when we were engaged and not yet married) "So, are you excited about getting married?"
b) "I'm a 25-year-old virgin. What do you think?"
