It can be OK sometimes if it's a second marriage, I suppose?

For those that do post anniversary tributes, I just wish it would be something more original...don't bother if you plan to say "20 years ago I married my best friend. I wouldn't want to do life with anyone else"

That's sweet and not really gushy. unless you know they hate each other.

That tends to be a passive-aggressive dig at the former spouse. "It's so wonderful to finally be with someone who...)

Fascinating. Maybe it’s some kind of primal territory marking. If you suspect your spouse is making themselves available for mating to others, you sure as hell would want to advertise that they are being closely guarded!
