The secret of a successful marriage

Once upon a time a married couple celebrated their 25 th marriage 


anniversary. They had become famous in the city for not having a single 


conflict in their period of 25 years. Local newspaper editors had 

gathered at the occasion to find out the secret of their well known 


“happy going marriage”.



Editor: “ Sir. It’s amazingly unbelievable. How did you make this 

possible? ”



Husband recalling his old honeymoon days said:  “ We had been to Shimla 


for honeymoon after marriage. Having selected the horse riding finally, 


we both started the ride on different horses. My horse was pretty okay 


but the horse on which my wife was riding seemed to be a crazy one.


On the way ahead, that horse jumped suddenly, making my wife topple 


over. Recovering her position from the ground, she patted the horse’s 


back and said ” This is your first time ”. She again climbed the horse 


and continued with the ride. After a while, it happened again. This time 


she again kept calm and said “ This is your second time ” and continued. 


When the horse dropped her third time, she silently took out the 

revolver from the purse and shot the horse dead !!



I shouted at my wife: “ What did you do you psycho. You killed the poor 


animal. Are you  crazy ?” ...



She gave a silent look and said: “ This is your first time!!! ”.”


Husband: ”That’s it. We are happily married ever after. “
