Most folks who’ve been married for some time will tell you that marriage is a lot of work. Often we find many small (and some not-so-small) details about our spouse after getting married. Many of the behaviors and bad habits people don’t see while dating comes to the surface once they tie the knot. Sometimes, these revelations can be too much for a marriage to bear. However, there are also those couples who not only accept their spouse’s imperfections, but grow to love them even more because of them. The couple in this joke is the perfect example. The husband tells his wife that he wants to get remarried, and she immediately delivers the ideal response.
An elderly man jokingly quipped to his wife that she wasn’t holding up her end of the marriage. What she said to him in response is absolutely priceless. You’ll be in stitches. After being married for 50 years, I took a careful look at my wife one day and said: “Fifty years ago we had a cheap house, a junk car, slept on a sofa bed and watched a 10-inch black and white TV, but I got to sleep with a hot 23-year-old girl every night.
Now, I have a $750,000 home, a $45,000 car, a nice big bed and a large screen TV, but I’m sleeping with a 69-year-old woman. It seems to me that you’re not holding up your side of things.”
My wife is a very reasonable woman. She told me to go out and find a hot 23-year-old girl and she would make sure that I would once again be living in a cheap house, driving a junk car, sleeping on a sofa bed and watching a 10-inch black and white TV.
Aren’t older women great? They really know how to solve an old guy’s problems.
