The Secret To Lasting Love Never Get Married.
The Scottish couple got engaged 32-years-ago in 1980 and believe that if they had ever married they would have gone their separate ways by now.
Instead George, 58, and Glynis, 55 who have two children Pamela, 23, and Alexandra, 17, are still happily dating and can’t wait to retire together. They never bothered to get married though people keep asking them when they would tie the knot. They believe they must have been doing something right for them to still be together this long. They believe their secret for lasting this long is never getting married though they do not rule that happening in the nearest future.
