>That which doesn't kill a relationship makes it stronger? Anyway we are still together today - 47 years later.

I'm curious what she thinks about it today!

I'm sure, in all those years, she had many things like that from your dad. So she in the end realized that's the way he is, that's his normal and he has no bad intention behind it.

So, what does she think of it now? I'm sure she finds it funny, because if she didn't you would probably have broke up long ago.
