It's story time. I'm recovering from the virus (which shall not be named). So this week, Larry goes solo and discusses how we met and married (when we were frugal and broke). He also answers viewer questions about our dating years. (Yay! We appreciate you all so very much.)
You'll find out:
○ who knew first that we would be married
○ how a pamphlet randomly falling out of a book changed our lives
○ two (really) strange things that happened on our first date
○ why Larry has SO much video footage of our dating years
○ if we were frugal daters (or did we blow a lot of money)
○ why Larry proposed to me (twice)
For the last 22 minutes of the program Larry answers all the questions that viewers wrote in about our dating life and early marriage.
He had a good time going solo. Give him some thumbs up for being brave and hopefully I'll feel better and be back next Monday.

1972 as newlyweds and saving hard to build our home we would spend time with friends doing the same. Picnics, popcorn and monopoly, simple meals was how we socialised. That time was one of the best times of my life. Putting money away each payday in envelopes for bills and in the bank for our house and both having the same goal made it worth it. By 1975 our house was being built. It’s easier if you spend time with friends or family that have similar interests and ideas. If your friends are party animals and always blowing their money they won’t understand you being frugal, mix with people with similar plans and ideas.

David, my husband, and I made that our first priority when we were seeking a mate. We have been married for 50 year going on 51. Seeking God on decisions have been the best way to deal with ANY problem or directions we should take in our marriage. I love how you praised Hope and show such love for her. Praise God!

I have taught him how to be frugal. 🙂

At that spot try banging on it. I had a Grand Torino with a simular issue on it's modulater, a square about two inch metal box & when the temp was high, the components separated. I would press down on the box with all my weight & the car would start & run until it need another HUG. We all need hugs, even old cars. This was a problem with this model, I loved that old car, I wore a Starsky sweater when I drove it.

Great story. The devotion you have to her is wonderful. I really hope to have a happy marriage, too. I have an amazing person in my life and I don't want to let go of him! My boyfriend was my first boyfriend, but we only dated for a few months (I was 13, he was 15) before we broke up. We didn't get back together again until I was 31! Have been together now for almost 3 years and it feels so right. Sometimes the timing doesn't work out and although we both wish we got back together sooner so we could have more time together, life happens and everything happens for a reason.

Hope, I have exactly the same tracking issues -- I only know where my keys are because they're attached to my purse, but then I can never find my purse! And I'm constantly using the land line to call my cell phone so I can find it. I also put many, MANY icons on my desktop. In my case, the reason why I do all these things is because I have adult-diagnosed attention deficit disorder. There are so many cycles running at once in my brain that there's very little room left for keeping track of the location of personal items, and I keep so many icons on my desktop because they're visual reminders -- for my brain, out of sight definitely means out of mind! One of my workarounds is to leave myself little hints and notes so I don't try to keep things in long-term memory -- for instance, if I buy a gift for someone way ahead of time, wrap it and put it somewhere, I will simultaneously make a note on the calendar to remind me about a week before that person's birthday (or about a month before Christmas) that I already have a gift for the person AND WHERE I SQUIRRELED IT AWAY. Best to the both of you!

I'm viewing from Scotland and I'm am a new Sub. plus new to viewing this wonderful channel. Clearly I am watching many, many videos way late but I have enjoyed all that I've viewed. This has been my favourite thus far and made me smile throughout. A beautiful 'love story' from a passionate gent who truly loves and respects his lady. I'm now very hooked! Almost 80k subs must agree.

It's so funny to me that I have been watching your videos for about 6 months and I just realized that you guys live right by my home town. You posted pictures on your last video of eating at "Grandview drive". I thought for sure that was peoria! You confirmed it today. I grew up in chillicothe and then moved to Dunlap after I was married. We moved to Orlando FL at the end of 2019. I just have to say small world!

I am watching this in 2023. You and Hope are a great couple. Every husband should be as thoughtful and NICE as you are. There are so many bums out there now, sorry but it's true LOL You are the best, Larry. I am not a great fan of men LOL but you are making me rethink things....i wish there were more men like you.

Moved to Brownsville, TX, in 1976. I worked as a nurses aide, & then an long, at proctor hospital...on the ortho floor. Your beautiful story is such a memory lane moment as you talked about the parks, eateries, etc. I know you won't see this, but I just had to say something. ❤

OMG what great videos. I remember that 80's hair Hope - mine was exactly the same. And Larry - you look like a Beatle who has grown a moustache. LOL!! Well done Larry, on a really entertaining upload. I LOVED the 80's. I'm of a similar age to Hope. It makes me reminisce. Thanks Larry!!

@@larryware1 You are soooo much like my family - very introverted and super intelligent. I have sooo many engineers in my family, but they are sooo shy. You remind me of them. Hope is such a good balance for you. You guys really found complementing traits in each other. My brothers relationship is like yours and I really admire it. It is very uncommon these days. You two are really on the same page. .I like that the most about you two - secondly the great advice.
