My wife and I regularly tell each other how weird we are. Sign of a healthy relationship if you ask me

My secret of staying married 28 years...don't tell my wife about past relationships. When we first got engaged she asked me if there was ever anyone else, I told her "Baby, you are the only one". She didn't fully believe me, but as long as she couldn't prove it.....

ha... yeah i guess it's the land cruiser that has the 4? obviously i haven't kept up on recent lexus suv's. they're space and/or performance challenged so no care.

No offense, folks, but what does all this soap-opera stuff about previous relationships have to do with vehicles? About the only think I can think of where a past relationship might (?) affect a future purchase is if one is paying monthly alimony or child-support, draining their income, and affecting how much can be spent on the vehicle itself.

Now, of course, your present Significant Other might have their sights set on a certain vehicle, but, especially, if they buy or lease it with their own money (not necessarily yours), past relationships are probably redundant.

no that likely wouldn't end well, but we definitely know and acknowledge everyone has issues.

and while we're at it, all families are dysfunctional.
