Every marriage should come with a Hex Key

There are a lot of guides on how to make your marriage better. Most of them are pretty difficult to understand. Apparently, one has only rudimentary drawings with a bunch of arrows.

A Julie Rodgers and William Pitts knew each other in Grade School. They reconnected after 30 years at an IKEA store.
"As we're leaving, we get yogurt cones and we're on the way to the parking lot when it hits me," Rodgers remembers. "I turned to him and said, 'This is one of the best dates I've ever had,' to which he said, 'This is a date?'"
So naturally, it's where they decided the wedding should be.

I'm just curious where they registered.




Actually, I love these stories - Mary and I discovered as we got to know each other that we had had a number of close calls in the years before we met. Going into college, for instance, we both had the same "back up" school - despite the fact that we grew up 2000 miles apart from one another.

When a pair knew each other in Grade School and fell in love as adults, you do get a sense that they were just bound to be with one another.
