thinking about marriage

I've seen it happen in a few relationships! I think it's a great thing, but you have to remember that after 30 years, both people have probably changed a whole lot. So even though you share a history, you have to keep in mind that both people aren't going to be 100% the same, and you have to get to know each other once again. It would be a big mistake only if you held them to their past personalities.

Oh wow I wished you hadn't asked that. I don't know the circumstances of your relationship, I guess things can work out in those situations. At least I wish they could.
I have been in love with the same man for that long. We were in love years ago, and he left for someone else. Over the years he was married 5 times, but I never was able to find anyone else, I guess all my life I was looking for him in every guy I met.
He returned last year, and I don't know why but once again it did not work out. I think he knows he should have stayed with me and his life would have been very different. Maybe he just can't face the idea that he blew it.
My whole point is that we are both different and would have had to develop a different kind of relationship than we once had.
Years ago we were young with stars in our eyes, and the disappointments and successes in our lives have changed us into different people...but at the same time we are the same and still have all the old feelings. The chemistry is there, but I guess at least for him too much time had passed. Maybe it can work for you I certainly hope so.

theres an excellent chance of being happy especially after not seeing them for 30 years. u never forget your first love, and something brought the two of u back together, perhaps a higher power. good luck

The same as with someone you never met before.
In 30 years you've both changed so take your time and make sure you're not trying to recapture something that's over.

I am going to live happily ever after..
after being apart from my highschool sweetheart for 20 years,.we are back together and married.
after 20 yrs... neither of us really changed.. just grew up some - we both love laughing together--and love being together.
- we never officially broke it off-- we just went off to college far apart..and went our seperate ways..

You are the master of your own destiny and the keeper of your own happiness. If you decide it is to be so, then make it so.
