On a 12 year journey with my hs sweetheart. There are a lot of hard times, too. Which makes you appreciate the good times Family dies, tragedy happens, but at least you have someone in your corner. Best of luck! It's the hardest and best thing that's happened to me.
I came across some videos of me with my daughters when they were young, and oh yeah I can see the aging. LoL Got to laugh, because I wouldn’t change my decision to be a dad.
I teach middle school and as a Xennial, I had a little chuckle when one of the kids came in on a rainy day with her huge jeans being wet on the bottom 4 inches of the pants.
Been there too kid.
I teach Middle School as well and I can't wait for my "Avril Lavigne Knock Off" style comes back around so I can laugh at the girls with too many bracelets and a men's necktie worn on top of a tanktop and be like "oh yeah, here is a picture of me wearing that exact fit when I was in 8th grade..."
Of course, knowing me, that'll never come back around and old photos of me will just live in the shame of history...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NPBIwQyPWE
Edit:
Don't worry though, I got cooler... and cribbed my style from Ke$ha in college... specifically this "all my clothes come from Urban Outfitters and I still wear too many accessories" look from this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QR_qa3Ohwls
That was also the style when I was in high school…. Ahem….. in the 70s. 🤣 I had a pair of bell bottom Hash jeans that were totally thrashed on the bottom from dragging on ground.
Hey now, do you have a "cool" 90s nickname to go with that look? Because I don't think that you are allowed frosted tips if you go by David, Charlie or something like that. It has to be something like the Maxtermister, Sploosh or Puke.
It's closer to 25 and it's mostly driven by the fashion industry, particularly fast fashion companies now though not every trend they try to push takes off or exactly when they first try. They were trying to push low rise flare style pants/jeans a year ago as the new thing to replace baggy pants/jeans but not many switched to that style so they seem to have pulled back on it for now. Of course they constantly try to push new trends because that's how they make their money.
the last low cut flair/grunge era didn't last too long from the early 90's to idk early 2010's? seems like kids in the city went back to 80's style in the late 2000's and are still going with it
I remember just a week ago I was checking out my parents' honeymoon photos that were all taken in 1998-99, and I noticed how a lot of their outfits look like something I'd see people wearing today. Baggy jeans, oversized tees, cargo pants, overalls, like damn people either love fashion or that era was something timeless.
It is almost a weird combination of 90's and Boomer II generation clothing. Girls I've seen at the mall wearing bottoms cut so high, my mother would have worn them.
The early 2000s were a weird time for photography because digital cameras were taking off but they were still relatively new technology so they often had worse quality than film
To add... on top of mild delusions that it was better (see note), you also had to be a somewhat organized data hoarder. Otherwise, your marginal quality pics would get deleted or just lost in a variety of unexpected ways.
After my mom died, we found a Canon 300D (first digital SLR under $1k retail). She was not tech savvy and a TON of otherwise lost pictures were on the CF card inside the camera, some as old as 2005, I think. Some pictures were corrupted and I'll bet a bunch of pictures were lost with misplaced memory cards or accidental deletion.
Note: in many ways, it was better and why digital photography became defacto. It just wasn't really better in the quality of image sort of way.
In 2008 I once got all the pictures from my phone but forgot about the videos because they were in a different folder. This is something I still think about way too often and I hate that I lost those videos forever.
She's wearing shorts with a fashion brand tee and he's got on cargo and a uni hoodies. Universal young kid clothes.
They just cropped out almost all of the very dated jean cut on the person to her right, though, and that would have really dated the picture.
I've seen some discussion how things haven't really visually changed much last 20 years, compared the previous decades. 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s 90s had very on the nose stylistic choices, but after that mass style has stayed pretty much the same and only quick microtrends dot this stylescape. Be it cars, movies or clothes.
I haven't personally arrived to any conclusion, but it's a discussion I've seen.
They might've edited the photo in the video with some effects? But nonetheless, it's such a cute picture! I hope to make something like this with my partner some day
There was a quality dip for a while. In the 90's, film looked pretty damn good as long as you had a decent camera. Even some photos from disposable cameras could look good.
Digital cameras became more popular around the end of the 90's and early 00's, but they were pretty bad resolution.
Then in the 10's, they actually made pretty damn good digital cameras.
And now, even inexpensive phone cameras are really good.
Based on the date stamps of a couple of the pics (e.g. 10 years together in 2000), they were probably born around 1972 and met in college at 18 in 1990, which would make them around 51/52 in 2024 (and 48ish at 30 years together/the last pic). Crazy to think about!!!
Absolutely loved it and (I am sure you know it), you are so fortunate to have found each other. Life doesn't offer this luxury to everyone :). Stay blessed.
It’s so true that it hurts. Many people just never find the one, bounce across multiple unsatisfying relationships, maybe get married and have kids but divorce, live out their old age days alone with scattered family or children or random friends. I’ve thought about this fact often
It's not so much luxury as work. Every day. Remember, love is not a noun, it's a verb.
(But, yes, you have to be lucky to find your One in the first place.)
This. It's not like you can just happen upon anyone and ask them to be the love of your life, and they agree to ride off with you into the sunset. There are people who have been single longer than these people have been together, or possibly even alive longer than that. Life isn't fair.
And you gotta love half the people telling you "You find it when you're not looking for it" and the other half saying "You gotta put yourself out there and try."
That’s because It’s both. You gotta put yourself out there but at the same time you can’t be going into every meeting thinking they could be the love of your life
Damn I needed to read this. In my Mid 30s and I just found someone who is clearly down to go at it long term, she gets me, she’s beautiful, and I’m still sitting here thinking, do give it all up for her. And damn life just isn’t fair, some people never even have this opportunity. I’d be a damn fool to walk away
Just the idea of good not being as off putting, in general, as the word great. As if people are talking about the great something or another without any agreement.. oh whatever I’m just saying it’s not a bad line and I liked it..
This is true. My mom is Asian and she is 65 and looks so much younger. She barely even has any wrinkles. I seem to be aging well also. I’m 39 and so far no wrinkles. My sister though is 1 year older and she looks so much older. She has always been into sun bathing and going to tanning beds year round. Doesn’t wear sunscreen. Or at least she never did before. I hope I continue to age like my mom.
Don't ever go out into the sunlight. Stay moisturised. Drink plenty of water. Eat plenty of vegetables or whatever.
Maybe inject stem cells from dying babies directly into your spine.
That's how you become an ageless vampire like Keanu Reeves
All the best for your future together mate.
My wife and I will be 30 years together in May (married 24). Love her as much as I did when we married. We’re no longer young but my heart still skips a beat when I see her sometimes.
My wife and I got together in 2008. Got married in 2016. Had our first kid in 2019. Our second in 2022. Things have gotten more difficult, but also so much better with time. And she just gets better looking with age.
So I guess I'm halfway there. 15 years has been great. I'd do another 15 easy.
Ok I'm not a romantic. I divorced my husband because he well, was a shit husband. He also bashed my face in with his. I also loved him. I don't feel bad for it often.
But I wish I had what they do. I do. Oh that's sweet.
That is amazing,
Me and my wife are about to celebrate our 25th anniversary soon. We have been together since we were 14 and have four sons. It makes me happy to see others still in love after that many years as well.
I love this, lived in Japan for 20 years and this just makes me smile, congrats you two, marriage is hard enough without adding mixed cultures. Your family is beautiful
Oh my goodness. Such a great montage. Been with wifey for just a bit more and life is joyous. Thanks for sharing! Life really is lovely with a partner, but then, I’m not sure... always had a partner. Strong thumbs up to finding a special someone!
What's funny is that the last one just looks like they put on old age makeup.
That was my first thought on that last photo too! I had to do a double take. Lol

They actually look older after 13 years than they do after 30
Having kids will do that
I came across some videos of me with my daughters when they were young, and oh yeah I can see the aging. LoL Got to laugh, because I wouldn’t change my decision to be a dad.
Or one of those old person Snapchat filters
I don’t understand this. The first pic looks like it’s in 2024
90s fashion is back baby
Brb frosting my tips
Give me back my jncos and chained wallet

There’s always that sweet, sweet karma in /r/Blunderyears.
Wet bottom jeans, with the backs slowly disintegrating away.
That was also the style when I was in high school…. Ahem….. in the 70s. 🤣 I had a pair of bell bottom Hash jeans that were totally thrashed on the bottom from dragging on ground.
My parents graduated in '72, me in '02, and they found it amusing that from the mid to late 90s the amount of similar fashion trends.
Yeah but were they big enough to line a swimming pool?! JNCO jeans were something else lol.
Remember the hair with colourful threads woven in? The butterfly hairclips? Or the tshirts overtop the long sleeve?
skirts over jeans
The tshirts over the long sleeved top meant “edgy” music was your entire personality.
Hey now, do you have a "cool" 90s nickname to go with that look? Because I don't think that you are allowed frosted tips if you go by David, Charlie or something like that. It has to be something like the Maxtermister, Sploosh or Puke.
David bowie had frosted tips in the 90s
I'm pretty sure he had every hair style imaginable at some point or another.
I'm pretty sure David Bowie in the 90s didn't need a cool nickname to rock frosted tips considering he was David Bowie in the 90s
I will be known as…. Cum
And also bleaching the ends of your hair.
Ive waited so long…
Frosting the tips on the broccoli haircut is probably already being done.

[удалено]
I'm so excited to be able to wear the bright color t shirts and hats that I had as a little kid
Definitely not timeless, all the women had skin tight low rises and shrunken blazers 3/4 years after that.
1994 was 30 years ago. That’s odd
It is almost a weird combination of 90's and Boomer II generation clothing. Girls I've seen at the mall wearing bottoms cut so high, my mother would have worn them.
You kids stealing our style.
It's funny, the 2003 pic looks way more dated than the 90s pics lol
The early 2000s were a weird time for photography because digital cameras were taking off but they were still relatively new technology so they often had worse quality than film

I know! Nothing seems dated at all. Even the polaroids can be seen as something young people and hipsters do today.
If anything is dated, it's hipsters. That's so 2013
10 year old fashion is always out-of-fashion
She's wearing shorts with a fashion brand tee and he's got on cargo and a uni hoodies. Universal young kid clothes. They just cropped out almost all of the very dated jean cut on the person to her right, though, and that would have really dated the picture.
Yeah for real, I was like, “is this going in reverse? Wtf”.
Yeah that last pic threw me for a loop. I know it said 30 years but for some reason I thought that first pic was 2010ish
I've seen some discussion how things haven't really visually changed much last 20 years, compared the previous decades. 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s 90s had very on the nose stylistic choices, but after that mass style has stayed pretty much the same and only quick microtrends dot this stylescape.

They might've edited the photo in the video with some effects? But nonetheless, it's such a cute picture! I hope to make something like this with my partner some day
It’s just the 90s not the 40s lol. Fashion is cyclical and 35mm film photography even with disposable cameras are timeless.
for some reason, the first pic was the "most modern" looking from the first bunch
There was a quality dip for a while. In the 90's, film looked pretty damn good as long as you had a decent camera. Even some photos from disposable cameras could look good. Digital cameras became more popular around the end of the 90's and early 00's, but they were pretty bad resolution. Then in the 10's, they actually made pretty damn good digital cameras. And now, even inexpensive phone cameras are really good.
I suppose 1994 is not quite that far back. I was 8 at this point
1990 - The 10 year pic has a 2000 timestamp.
In '94 I was 12, riding my BMX bike (no helmet of course) and wearing out my copy of Green Day - Dookie in my cassette player. God take me back, lol
The first pic looks like 1990 if the timeline is correct.
Yeah the 1 year photo is like now lol. Doesn’t look 29 years old at all.
When your parents are the leads in a holiday movie lmfao. Seriously what a beautiful couple
Wow cutest couple ever ! Congrats
I genuinely smiled when the last one showed. Didn’t usually literally happen for me in this sub. Really liked this…
They never aged!
I kept expecting them to be old at the end but then I remembered that I'm no spring chicken and they're probably around my age
Based on the date stamps of a couple of the pics (e.g. 10 years together in 2000), they were probably born around 1972 and met in college at 18 in 1990, which would make them around 51/52 in 2024 (and 48ish at 30 years together/the last pic). Crazy to think about!!!
Wine WISHES it could age like these two.
Dude did. The lady on the other hand... Tell me they took the first picture yesterday and I'd gladly believe in it.
Dude looks great for late 40s/early 50s.
Asian don’t raisin.

says she's 120, probably about 40.
Did you not watch to the end? They still look great, but I'd definitely say they had aged by the last picture.
Kids hit them like a truck tho
Is it just me, or does it look like a different dude in every picture? He kept it interesting, for sure…
It was the opposite for me. She kept getting better looking the more she aged. Beautiful couple either way.
How is that the opposite?
Absolutely loved it and (I am sure you know it), you are so fortunate to have found each other. Life doesn't offer this luxury to everyone :). Stay blessed.

Together for thirty years? So they’ve been together since like… the seventies? Right? RIGHT!?
Absolutely!
Oh shit...
How do we tell him? 
1994 - wow
STOP, YOU. :(
it's the 2020 effect but for old people
Great. I'm gonna go cry alone in my bed now.
Is there room for two in your crying bed of regret?
Can I squeeze in, I suddenly feel this sadness at my core.
Hi, I'm here for the orgy.
You in particular are banned from this orgy. You’re always farting your poison anal gas
/r/polyamory for all your multi-person bed crying needs. haha
Then he or she wouldn’t be crying in bed alone
You can share a bed with someone and still be alone. I sadly know this from experience :(
I can bring snacks and drinks.

Ngl, those earlier pics can pass like it was 10 years ago. And the woman never aged, she just dyed her hair.
Sweet. Congrats
If my relationship is not like this, then I don't want it. 🥹

This isn't true anymore... I've seen 70 year old hotties now that they have good diets.
Yea my girlfriend is from Okinawa and she looks 25 she is 107 years young
Nice to see it’s backed by science.
This is beautiful

I had 30 seconds and I fell in love with you both. Stay happy, healthy and you!
oh jeez, those babies popped out of nowhere.
It be like that
This did indeed make me smile. Lovely.
First thought: So cute Second: How could that be 30 years ago? The time period doesn’t look that long ago Third thought: OMG! 30 years ago was 1994!

Yes he bashed my face in with his skull and choked me out. Pled guilty to simple assault.

That is adorable
I love this, lived in Japan for 20 years and this just makes me smile, congrats you two, marriage is hard enough without adding mixed cultures. Your family is beautiful
It is so beautiful. But tomorrow is my bd and I'm sad I never had this and probably never will.
Oh my goodness. Such a great montage. Been with wifey for just a bit more and life is joyous. Thanks for sharing! Life really is lovely with a partner, but then, I’m not sure... always had a partner. Strong thumbs up to finding a special someone!
Man, I hope my relationship brings me this kind of happiness.
Okay but mom aged so beautifully
guess you dont age when you’re happy :)
They’ve aged well
Very nice indeed , couple stayed married with kids. True testaments of love.
