My dad saw my mom on a bus when she was 15. She was with her parents. He was 17 and with his friends. My dad said to his friends, “I’m going to marry that girl.” Three years later they met. He told her he saw her and described the bracelets she was wearing that day on the bus. They will be married 70 years in August. They still live in their home together. She’s 90 he’s 92.

@@LordVader1094 If she is literally your ideal "perfect 10," then great. More power to you. If, however, she's a pretty older woman and we are trying to be polite because we thought it was a really sweet story... Well, saying she is a perfect 10 is patronizing. It's like when a celebrity does something nice and people jump on saying things like, "I be they are the nicest people ever! I would love to get coffee with them every day and be their best friend. It just comes across as overly odd. But seriously, if she's your perfect 10, then great. I don't have any issue with that either.

Love keeps you young.

Jeff Bridges should be the uncle who should be at every Thanksgiving dinner because we know he got the best stories.

I thought my husband was in touch with each aspect of his emotions...but, Jeff takes the cake! Very raw, honest, insightful truths. Always listen to the whispers.

I could listen to Jeff for hours. He seems like such a cool dude to have a cup of coffee and talk with

I can see the natural warmth and wit of his Dad shining through. Two good men, real menches.

The way you said “33 years and 2 daughters ago” was beautiful. I’m 23 and can’t wait to say that about my future wife, whenever it may be, whoever she may be!

WOW. Great story. My husband and I knew the minute we met and looked at each other. It's going on 30 years now and we are still best friends and soul mates. Love at first sight does exist.

Wow. That was great. Thanks for sharing that with us, Sam; it was really special. My wife is a year older than I and we were friends in high school (I moved from a "big" school to a really small town (graduating class was only 53)). After a number of years, we happened to bump into each other at a local grocery store (I still lived in that small town through college). She was visiting her mother and I happened to see her on the sidewalk. I walked up to her and looked in the eye to say, "Hello." Well, that whole line about butterflies in the stomach is TRUE! I thought my insides were going to spill out on the sidewalk! I had to look away but she kept trying to make eye contact because she felt it, too. And every time our eyes met, butterflies! We've now been married 31 years. Have a great rest of your week and thanks, again, for sharing that. It was a beautiful story.

That's an amazing story. It reminds me of a mine a little. Went to high school with a girl I thought was really awesome and beautiful but I was too awkward and shy to do much about it. Randomly saw her name online 18 years later, and decided to tell her I thought she was cool in high school, thinking she probably couldn't remember me. But she could. We started talking, and it was butterflies right away. It's been several years since, and she gets more beautiful and more interesting and more amazing every day.

I saw my husband and knew immediately he was for me even though I was quite the wild child. Somehow I knew we would be married, my mom said I’ll believe it when I see it. It took several years to get married but Its been almost 38 years together. When we know, we know. 💕. I just love Jeff Bridges.

If he didn't show the photos, I was going to sue the entire world. Beautiful woman. You had no choice. :-)

Jeff Bridges has always been one of my favorite actors ! His soul is beautiful ! I wish him and his family love and happiness all the days of their lives ! And more luck then they will need🍀 ( that line is from a Jimmy Buffett song )

Thank you for highlighting a happy and beautiful Hollywood marriage rather than a scandalous marriage. There are actually lots of wonderful celebrity couples but they seem to get overlooked by the 5 minute marriages

That was so beautiful. I feel way too much sometimes.. what a great storyteller.

Wonderful! How not to love this man!? Such a wonderful storyteller and so inspiring! :)

i have loved that family all my life, i'm fans of his, and his brother and father as they are all damn fine actors, i also love hearing stories about this when you hear a guy that really adores his wife, though Colbert is the same way you don't often hear enough guys speak like this about their wife and it's nice to hear it. but wow pictures of the first words they ever spoke to one another

Jeff Bridges is so real. Love his emotions are shown .. Rare. But I love it .. He indeed has a beautiful wife love can speak in our hearts .. It did for Jeff

Someone should direct a movie without script and Jeff Bridges as the only actor improvising for two hours.

Jeff Bridges is such a legend in the truest sense of the word

Loved his love story and the fact that he dared to talk about a very intangible but also a very human feeling as well: destiny taking over your actions and the shock it brings to your body and mind :)

I love that he shared his story. So beautiful!

Such a good story of meeting love of his life. Susan has to be extraordinary woman to keep him home for 46 years. Perfect match.

What a wise man! Bravo Jeff. Bless you and your Susan.✌

He should do a one man show in small regional theaters.

Lovely man. Love his films. Thunderbolt. And lightning. Was great film.

Wow! what a story - and the first moment caught on film. Meant to be. On a side note, I kept seeing the facial expressions of Kris Kristopherson in Mr. Bridges and his beard (probably just me).

God Bless you both, I am praying for you and your family and Wish you health and continued happiness. My husband and I are smitten with each other and Jan 1 we will be happily married for 50 years and we were so attracted to each other the first time our eyes locked and we were young but knew we were going to be together for the rest of our lives and we still feel that. So I know what you mean about being so strongly connected. We simply respect each other love each other and have a friend ship that’s so beautiful. I wish you the same . Love and happiness to you and your family!

That was beautiful!

Thank you.

WOW. Key word: SUPPORT!

I know that feeling of having that moment when you realize you a falling in love with someone. I know that almost instant terrifying fear that also sets in. Luckily for Jeff it worked out in his favor. For me it didn't. But in a way it was maybe for the best. My focus on what is the most valuable in life is changing. I'm choosing the people that actually care and matter to me. The rest I'm letting go off. I don't need or want them in my life. They are also the ones that have problems. Not me. I was open and honest towards them. They took my kindness and good nature for granted. Treated me like shit. I'm leaving them behind now. Staying connected only to the truthful people. The rest will have to figure out their own shit. If they ever want to reconnect they can do it through a mutual friend. But they will have to show a willingness to want to be a better person towards me. If not, I'm good. I live my own life now. And I choose the people I want in my life now.

@@megankazukibuttons9334 It most definitely is. Life is too short to waste it on people who don't care about your well-being. It's a tough, but none the less super important life lesson. In my experience you get better at cutting out the BS in your life as you get older, simply because you have more experience to draw on from the past, or because you experience some life changing moments that just makes it clear how short and precious life is. Therefor it also becomes crystal clear that these hurtful connections is just not worth your time. So you let go in order to give yourself the ability to move on. Move on to a deeper and more meaningful existence.
