Its so sweet and warming to meet such nice older folk. Usually you find an older guy wanting a guy much younger. Today at work i had the pleasure of meeting an older couple in their 50s and they told me they have been together for 25 years and still love each other very much.
I hope something like that happens to me one day.
 
I think that's great considering most relationships are lucky to make it to the 6 month point.
 
So they just came out to you while doing your job? Why did they do that?
 
this sounds really nice. they must be very happy with each other if the relationship lasts that long. :-)
 
Gay relationships can last, if the partners fit together. I have a friend, who wanted me as his boyfriend. The problem is, he is 56 and I am 26. We don't fit together, but we have a friendship since 7 years now. It will never be a relationship and eventually I'll have a real partner, who I plan to stay with for the rest of my life. I can see why gay relationships can last that long - it is hard to find another partner that you can live with. Us gays are comparatively rare after all.
 
My partner and I have been together for 29 years--he's 50, I'm 52. I still think he's the hottest man alive! We're going to celebrate our 30th anniversary this year by getting married.(!)
 
I met a couple that's in their late 30's and they were together for 15+ years. Meaning they started their relationship in their mid 20's - so it's possible!!! [one fo them is so damn cute!]

There's no reason why gay people cannot have relationships comparable to a healthy straight relationship. I think we don't hear about them so much because they don't hang out in gay clubs or dating websites like 90% of us, lol.
 
I was with my last partner for 3 years. Everyone thought we had been together forever. I hope I find someone I can spend the rest of my life with.
 
I am 41 and have been with my partner for 18 years, I can't imagine anything else. :)
 
I can only dream.

I relish the thought of one day being with someone longer than we were apart.

*sigh*
I'm going to bed.
 
a few years ago I met a couple who had been together 50 years. I could tell they were still very much in love (they talked about how they had just bought an old country church and were renovating it and converting it into a house). It really opened my eyes to the possibility of a lasting relationship.
 
I have a couple of friends that just celebrated 37 years together!
 
it is such a testament to the commitment of the guys, because society has not given them any kind of framework and support. god bless them

It's very, very hard--in a straight or gay relationship--to keep up keen interest in someone sexually for 15, 25, 50 years. It's amazing in fact.

Many hetero relationships are maintained simply because it's easy to keep the status quo--what with kids and relatives to keep things running smoothly.

I think childless str8 couples are more comparable to gays in terms of difficulty of maintaining LTRs. I wonder if childless str8 couples have a better or worse record of LTRs than couples with kids?
