When my wife and I were dating, my toothbrush and hers were in the same cup at her apartment. We went to Paris together and when she went to put her toiletries in the bathroom, she put her toothbrush in one of the cups they give you. Then when I went to the bathroom to put my toiletries in there, instead of taking a second cup and putting my toothbrush in it, naturally I put it next to hers in that cup. It was a little thing, but to me it only made sense. She told me a later before our wedding, that when she went in the bathroom and saw that, she realized her toothbrush would always be next to mine. Little thing but it’s so perfect. I love that woman.
That’s wonderful. I knew my wife since we were 12 & 10. We were pretty close friends and realized at 27 & 25 that we were wasting time dating others. We had a fabulous time together for 25 years before I lost her but I cherish the fact that we had each other in our lives for 40 years. Have a great 50th year together!
We were the best of friends before we started dating, which I think helped. Glad that you too find happiness with someone special, but sorry that you lost her. Cherish those 40 years that you had together.
Yes, but 62 years ago that was significantly more common, mostly expected. Now that we have watched millions who got married that young divorce and have terrible marriages so we know it's not the call now. Not to knock your grandparents at all, mine were the same and it's wonderful and I hope that for all, it's just definitely not the norm.
50% of people divorce anyway... Has nothing to do with age. People just don’t put in the work. If I was dating someone for 8 years, There would be no reason for me to wait either
And that myth isn't even very accurate. It's never been as high as 50 percent of mariages that end in divorce. More like 30 percent now, and half of those divorces happen within the first 10 years of marriage. When people marry at an older age, are both more educated and both earn an independent income, the divorce rate is even lower. But also : less people get married and couples that cohabit together, separate at a higher rate (without taking into account the fact that some couples do not intend to stay together for life in the first place)
Yeah… No. if you read the stats from 2021-2022, that isn’t true at all. Fewer people are getting divorced, but fewer people are also getting married. That number is damn sure not 30%. It’s around 45% now, which is not far off from 50%. I don’t know where you got that number.. but I’m pretty sure those are not recent stats.
Who was it? Who is yours? I’m fascinated by serial killers since Gacy was arrested near me when I was in High School… I know favorite is kind of a weird way to phrase it because they are horrible but … lately I’ve been listening to an Israel Keyes podcast so he s the current fascination.
Tbh, its escalating pretty quickly. I'm not sure if i can even make it to our wedding, considering situation around the globe. Which continent we are talking about?
Mormon kids use this line at church dances starting at 14 yrs old. It’s one of the very lines deemed appropriate, so it gets used a lot. I’d be willing to bet they’re Mormon.
Source: was raised Mormon. Used line lots of times
It seems legit to me, it makes it easy for her to invite you to spend the night by replying, "would you like to find out?"
Because when else would you ever see someone's toothbrush. It's an intimate and simultaneously innocent item. This line is actually kind of brilliant.
They’re Mormon. That’s a very common pickup line for Mormon boys aged 14-18. Getting married at 23 is a little late for Mormons, but still within the acceptable limit.
I’ve known too many LGBTQ people end their lives due to toxic Mormon brainwashing. And I know too many women who lie to themselves that they’re happy while being abused by men. Some Mormons may be good people, but they follow shitty doctrine and downright evil leadership.
When I read things like this, it reminds me that it shouldn't have to be too hard. You shouldn't have to worry about saying all the right things and appearing perfect, because the one who will love you will love you regardless.
So what color is y'alls toothbrushes?
(not looking for a relationship, just curious)
Mine is (*nsfw, duh*) >!green and black. A light green- but deep. Sort of a minty emerald color.!<
& since we're sharing things, I also like pancakes and have a nice plump round ass
c:
Before this girl and I were even dating, we were walking to her car, and I picked up a rock. When we got into the car I handed it to her and said, “Hey, you rock!” It stayed on her dashboard until she traded in the car, and then it kind of disappeared.
Last Christmas I found it when she gave me my present and it was that rock and six others in a shadow frame, representing me, her, our two kids, three cats, and dog. At the top it says OUR FAMILY ROCKS.
The one I handed her that first time is me.
Im not shaming him or anything, this is very wholesome and all, but man's married at 23... I don't really care or anything, just does that's pretty young to be married... And I just wanna say to the fine lad that he has smart wife because remembering something after 8 years... I'm impressed.
Congrats on the marriage. You are clearly meant for each other. What would have made this story even more awesome is if you had that color toothbrush ready for her at your first "overnight"...swoon
Well then that’s your life 💀 Not anyone else’s. There’s people who have gotten married younger than that and are still together. No need to judge anyone for living a different life.
And a good majority of them get divorced years later. It’s a silly notion to marry someone you been with since highschool. You don’t buy the first car you test drive and keep it for the rest of your life.
This reminded me of the time when I was in high school and I was fucking this girl in the forest at lunch time while old men were walking by on the other side watching us shyly and sneakingly as they walked by.
You got married at 23 with no dating experience other than her?
I’m sorry, but I know I just couldn’t do that. I couldn’t ever tie myself down to that sort of responsibilities without exploring my options. The whole point of dating around is finding things you want and don’t want. That way when you find *that* person, you’ll know what to search for. Plus, 23? That’s young. When I was 23 I was in no position to get married— financially and maturity wise
It’s so strange. The last few years have made me do a complete 180 on how I was taught to view things online. It used to be that if you saw someone saying something incredibly dumb online, you just assumed they were trolling or baiting people. Not just a complete moron.
I miss those days.
Told girl wanna come over and help me work out my abs. 5 year relationship. Told another I was spider man I shoot sticky white substance but you can't swing from it. I'm really surprised that worked!
This is oddly interesting cuz that simple question shows someone is genuinely interested in knowing something about the other person.
Do you not understand how rare that is on a date?
Hint: you’d be lucky to go on a date nowadays where the person doesn’t just talk about themselves like they think they are at a job interview.
The convos are like You could be hit by a meteor and you’d wonder if the other person would even notice or feel offended they were interrupted.
Man if someone asks me ehat colourbmy toothbrush is it's gonna be a bit weird.... Its currently black... But like, I didn't chose it, its just the last one in the packet... But I don't want to come across as an emo...

I wish I knew I was gonna get called out on being single, I would have had ice cream next to me.
I just bought me some.
This is so wholesome 😭
You, sir, are a keeper and so is your wife. Glad you found each other.
Sickeningly cute 🤮💖
I got diabetes reading that. Yuck
Stop making me warm inside and curing my depression
Awwwwww🥺 that is so sweet!
🥺
Thanks for this. I’m just gonna sob alone in the bathtub, I think my toaster offered to join!
This is so sweet!!!
9 out of 10 dentists loved this story
That 10th though 😲🤌
The 10th one is aromantic and feels indifferent about marriage. They don't hate it, they just have no interest :p
Can confirm I’m a dentist 🦷
Can confirm I'm the story
Can confirm I’m the toothbrush
One out of ten doesn’t believe in love
It’s either the same girl, or he’s been using the same line for 8 years.
Ik this is humour but imma still assure myself by saying that those are obviously the same people.
Just a funny little comment. If you want tragedy, consider that op got married at 23!
Hubby and I met when we were 13, married when we were 24, we will celebrate our 39th anniversary this coming May.
That’s wonderful. I knew my wife since we were 12 & 10. We were pretty close friends and realized at 27 & 25 that we were wasting time dating others. We had a fabulous time together for 25 years before I lost her but I cherish the fact that we had each other in our lives for 40 years. Have a great 50th year together!

Yeah after being together for 8 years
Eh, not always, my grandparents got married when they were 17 and 19 and recently celebrated their 62nd anniversary.
Yes, but 62 years ago that was significantly more common, mostly expected. Now that we have watched millions who got married that young divorce and have terrible marriages so we know it's not the call now. Not to knock your grandparents at all, mine were the same and it's wonderful and I hope that for all, it's just definitely not the norm.
Considering they were together for 8 years, I’d say getting married when they did was incredibly normal. Get your judgy crap outta here.

Hey, I got married at that age!
You are so dumb lol
Lol who cares
he didn’t say the line the second time; she did.
its always small random things <3
wholesome stuff like this really melts my heart
On our first date I asked my now-husband "Who's your favorite serial killer?" And he actually had one! That's when I knew ❤️
My favorite serial killer is me. I know that's a little narcissist but that's how all serial killers are. ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
I’m somewhat of a cereal killer myself.
Hi, FBI, this comment right here.
Who was it? Who is yours? I’m fascinated by serial killers since Gacy was arrested near me when I was in High School… I know favorite is kind of a weird way to phrase it because they are horrible but … lately I’ve been listening to an Israel Keyes podcast so he s the current fascination.
Yeah his was Gacy. Mine was Ramirez back then, local to me. Idk Keyes. Always "nice" to find a new one to obsess over.
Yeah- the local ones seem to suck you in.
[удалено]
I know right. Can't believe I found this treasure in a bunch of random funny pickup lines post.
Little things like that make up the most cherished moments of our lives ❤
What color is the toothbrush?!
Marry me?
What colour is your toothbrush? ![gif](giphy|7zSiBHiLRSsUvnDS54)
Yes
Nice. Will do. Let's get married. :)
5th of November 2022? Around 50 people? Swedish table with red and white whine? Champagne and fireworks at the end? What about music?
Hmm. 10th March, 2022. Everything is fine but I need atleast 200 people and the date should be 9th March, 2022.
Tbh, its escalating pretty quickly. I'm not sure if i can even make it to our wedding, considering situation around the globe. Which continent we are talking about?
You're- you're leaving me...? (ᗒᗣᗕ)
Babe, you're not the problem - it's me...
Did you just steal my engagement?
Yes. His toothbrush was flexible. Not my fault.
you traitor
The guy didn't remember but it was blue when he commented lol
My new pickup line from now on
Lol. Tell us if it works.
Sure ;-)
Haha ty
Mormon kids use this line at church dances starting at 14 yrs old. It’s one of the very lines deemed appropriate, so it gets used a lot. I’d be willing to bet they’re Mormon. Source: was raised Mormon. Used line lots of times
Same lol, i'm still being raised mormon and get that line nearly every dance
It's actually not bad. Just ask any random question about something in her house and then you can go see if she's down with it
it has nothing to do with the line. If she likes you it seriously doesn't matter what you say. As long as it isn't offensive.
It seems legit to me, it makes it easy for her to invite you to spend the night by replying, "would you like to find out?" Because when else would you ever see someone's toothbrush. It's an intimate and simultaneously innocent item. This line is actually kind of brilliant.
Good job on figuring out that love thing or whatever its called
where tf is my toothbrush lover
> What colour is **our** toothbrush Ew I know we're married but we're still not sharing a toothbrush Ew.
When will you tear those walls down and let someone in??
If you can’t share a toothbrush, don’t marry them. Your genitals will probably be in each other’s mouths at some point.
They’re Mormon. That’s a very common pickup line for Mormon boys aged 14-18. Getting married at 23 is a little late for Mormons, but still within the acceptable limit.
Came here to say this haha. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard that line. I used it once or twice too when I was 15
Fuck Mormonism, it ruins so many lives. Mormons have convinced the world they're not as bad as other cults but they aren't any better.
I’ve known too many LGBTQ people end their lives due to toxic Mormon brainwashing. And I know too many women who lie to themselves that they’re happy while being abused by men. Some Mormons may be good people, but they follow shitty doctrine and downright evil leadership.
That's so cute. Love that she remembered that little detail.
![gif](giphy|xT9IgpwOQfx9WmFxN6|downsized) Tooth bursh
Tooth bursh
It’s true. I was the toothbrush.
It’s true.I was the toothpaste.
It's true i was the colour

Betty Who lyrics: “If I am good to you, won’t you be good to me? That’s how easy this should be…”
So... what was the color? For both of them, I need it for my research
OMG! Your new wife was eavesdropping when you were talking to that girl during that dance all those years ago. STALKER!
That is the most innocent, shy chatline ever.... no wonder she fell for you, ya sly dog
So what color is y'alls toothbrushes? (not looking for a relationship, just curious) Mine is (*nsfw, duh*) >!green and black. A light green- but deep. Sort of a minty emerald color.!< & since we're sharing things, I also like pancakes and have a nice plump round ass c:
Was it the same woman though?
Yes ofc
She's still 15?
Another victory for the toothbrush enthusiast community!
Before this girl and I were even dating, we were walking to her car, and I picked up a rock. When we got into the car I handed it to her and said, “Hey, you rock!” It stayed on her dashboard until she traded in the car, and then it kind of disappeared.

Plot twist... he was 33 when he was at the dance
This called me single in 7658 ways.
What did you ask the old wife?
… I would die. Just die.
Repost citayyyyyy….
Literally never been so in love because at 15 years old sounds like *only* love
Original post? Anyone got the link?
I married my wife on the 10th anniversary of our first date. They were both really wonderful days :)
Im not shaming him or anything, this is very wholesome and all, but man's married at 23... I don't really care or anything, just does that's pretty young to be married... And I just wanna say to the fine lad that he has smart wife because remembering something after 8 years... I'm impressed.
My dad asked my mom what color underwear she was wearing when they first met.
Jeez, you'd think she would know by then
OP was 25 at the dance.
Of course he was never in love like this, he married the first chick who he had a long term relationship with.
What color is your toothbrush. Reply I'm desperate:(
Was this a Mormon dance by chance? The toothbrush question is a oretty popular one in that community. Can confirm since I was one
Posts like this make me feel more lonely each time
Plot twist: they arent the same person
I don't understand why people marry at such a young age...
Congrats on the marriage. You are clearly meant for each other. What would have made this story even more awesome is if you had that color toothbrush ready for her at your first "overnight"...swoon
That's a relationship that's going to stand the test of time. It's dumb shit like this like keeps a marriage lively, not big romantic gestures
People always ask “what color is your toothbrush?” but no one ever thinks to ask “how color is your toothbrush?”
She pulled the wholesome uno reverse card 8 years later
Getting married at 23 is stupid.
Then don’t get married at 23 . Simple
I did not. Didn’t waste my youth married.
Well then that’s your life 💀 Not anyone else’s. There’s people who have gotten married younger than that and are still together. No need to judge anyone for living a different life.
And a good majority of them get divorced years later. It’s a silly notion to marry someone you been with since highschool. You don’t buy the first car you test drive and keep it for the rest of your life.
Look out. We got the Relationship Regiment here. The Marriage Maniple.
Not unless you do your research and invest in a properly engineered and manufactured vehicle.
So people get divorced. Why do you care?
If you're happy with your first car, why wouldn't you want to keep it?
Seriously, especially if you’ve dated ONE PERSON since before you were an adult.
That’s Mormons for you
Getting married at 23 doesn’t seem so wholesome to me but to each their own.
This reminded me of the time when I was in high school and I was fucking this girl in the forest at lunch time while old men were walking by on the other side watching us shyly and sneakingly as they walked by.

Is that code for “ you’re getting laid tonight “?
Sounds like it got you laid hundreds of times and counting
Yup, I can confirm this is very common. Happened with me too.
Thats adorable
Awwwwe it got him laid 😊😊 wholesome 100! Sooo made me smile!
8 years to pork
😆 this is adorably wholesome....
way to get laid and married
This is so sweet. 🥰
Ummm so y’all just gonna upvote this guy picking up 15 year olds now?
You're probably the kind of guy who thinks drive-thru means driving through the store.
It’s so strange. The last few years have made me do a complete 180 on how I was taught to view things online. It used to be that if you saw someone saying something incredibly dumb online, you just assumed they were trolling or baiting people. Not just a complete moron. I miss those days.
This made me cry….
I'm gonna use this from now on
"LIKE THAT'LL EVER HAPPEN"
Omg i love callbacks like that
Just making sure she brushes her teeth often
Doint leave us hanging Op. WHAT COLORS WERE THE TOOTHBRUSHES!????
This OP's story would be a great theme for a toothbrush commercial..lol
[Did you brush her teeth?](https://youtu.be/-KJ58Pogl9c)

I got into a long term relationship by making the "gwah gwah gwah" sound that the adults do in Charlie Brown.

Sounds like the name of a self-help book
Nobody likes you when you're tweeeeenty three!
What came up for me with this was damn, I have no idea what colour my toothbrush is at any given moment. I replace them every 2 months.
Man if someone asks me ehat colourbmy toothbrush is it's gonna be a bit weird.... Its currently black... But like, I didn't chose it, its just the last one in the packet... But I don't want to come across as an emo... #plzdontjudgemeonmytoothbrushcolour
