Happy 50th wedding anniversary. What a wonderful way to say...
"I never said that. I said that I don't love you anymore I did not say I love you any less.
"Darling!" "I love you too."

Separate, divorce what? (comma required after separate)

This is a clever play-on-words story that fools the reader into thinking it's a sad end to a relationship. People happily married a long time will especially get a kick out of it. I just noticed one little thing:

Punctuation missing at end of this quote:
"No! I said I don't love you anymore. I mean that I do not love you anymore

    You're quite welcome. Funny how you describe your computer woes, much like your prose.

I read this dialogue story with interest at first, then wondered, is there a point to this? The main story line is very cliched, and has been used innumerable times. If you wanted to write a story about your anniversary or the love you have for your wife, make it original. Sorry.

Susan

    I apologize for being so abrupt. I hope I didn't hurt your feelings. It was rather insensitive of me. Sorry.

This is a hilarious conversation. If the guy was my husband, I'd probably kill him though...
I think there's a comma missing: Separate (,) divorce
Great post. Thanks.

Yeah, maybe he should have kept his mouth shut, lol. A fun dialogue piece revealing how even two people who've loved eachother a long time can still have misunderstandings. The sentiment here, though, is lovely, even though he mucks up expressing it at the start.
I mean that I do not love you anymore - need to close quotes at the end of this line.

Congratulations on 50 years of marriage.

What a quirky conversation. Wise husband to hold his tongue on this one. I find the wife very charming. She has a valid point although I tell my grandchildren that I love them more everyday. She may be right though. My heart was full of love when I first saw them.
I enjoyed this piece very much.

Hi there

I think your point was well made - LOL! I coudln't help but chuckle at the end!

I have dropped a star because the punctuation needs fixing. I have given you some examples below.

I enjoyed.


"No!(") I said(,) (")I don't love you anymore. I mean that I do not love you anymore(.)(")

Separate divorce what? (")

you any less.(")

"Darling!" (")I love you too."

He's not a Cyrano or a Romeo with words! Lol. He really should say, "I couldn't love you any more."
Some comments:
"Bastard?" (Did you mean to have a question mark here? I thought an exclamation point might be better.)
"Darling!" "I love you too." ("Darling! I love you too."

What a delightful play on the English language, one that is so often vulnerable to misinterpretation. I read it twice. Very clever. I love it, but not anymore than when I read it the first time.

What a fun 'play on words' conversation, Rikki -- I can easily picture an older couple having this conversation, no problem!! ;) :) Great warming smile for the day -- thanx for sharing! ;)

not love you anymore --> not love you any more."

of our life I loved --> of our lives I've loved

Separate divorce what? --> Separate? Divorce? What?"

you anymore I did not say --> you any more - I did not say [or a period there would work]

"Darling!" "I love you --> "Darling! I love you
