Boy, my age must be showing! I thought this *was* what people did. My husband (mtgzz!leeper of net.movies fame) and I have been friends for 17 years now and married for 13--I can't imagine a relationship that long-term unless the people *were* friends. But then, we know lots of couples of whom we say, "What do they ever find to talk to each other about?!?" Often, it turns out to be the divorce. Evelyn C.
