  • Hello, we're Jeri & Mike! After we got married in 1977 we were so excited to compete on the iconic gameshow "The Newlywed Game." It's been 46 years since this aired on television so for the first time in over five decades we're watching it again... with all of you!

      I can’t be sure but…maybe part of the problem is that society has been deeply conditioned away from self care, self love, self respect and instead, are honestly working their lives away. I think, if we had inner health, we might wait longer to find a partner but, we’d wait until we found the right partner instead of trying to fill voids the need healing, with things like the conventional rules to western society. We’re not going to go extinct by taking care of the self, first. We might just sustain a more thriving species, though.

(not that I have to or need to but just for fun to poke at you) I had just watched the video where they discuss being an interracial couple in the 70's and the hurdles they faced. So given that they faced those ignorant times and prevailed I decided to include that in my statement. I could care less what color either of them are. They are outstanding people who have passed the trials and tribulations of darker times in history and remained in loved for longer than you probably have been alive. Keep your trap shut and move along kid. DO not bring evil and ignorance into the comment section on a wonderful video.

      So true as a child of an interracial marriage my dad a black man born Mississippi my mom German met WW11 where my brother and I were born.We came USA 1953 we couldn't go to Mississippi and my grandparents moved north while we were enroute to America because my grandparents feared for our safety if we came to Mississippi there and they had reasons to fear at that time kkk and laws on the books making it a felony to marry out of ones race it was called missegregation laws and they were prevalent in the south. Unfortunately my parents divorced do hate, ignorance and jealousy my mom raised us my dad did the visitation thing, shared holidays and summers but that depended on where he was stationed he did a 24 year stint.(Army) So this young couple I'm sure went through a lot in 40 years plus. I'm glad they're still together. The supreme court case that struck down these laws was Loving V Virginia 1967. 🌻

Even in this day and age, being a mixed couple is not always as easy as it should be, but it's worth it. I can see these two feel the same.

      ​​@@carlathomas5807I think you may be confusing 'nonchalance' with 'acceptance' of situations AFTER all the hard work, marriage counselling if available, disillusionment as dreams have been shattered, guilt, shame and grief for oneself, and one's children, and the heartache and hardship of difficult decisions, etc.
      Unhappy parents do not raise emotionally secure children. Most children are not fooled by parents pretending to live as a couple 'for the sake of the kids'. There are many instances where the child/ children are better off with the parents separating, due to the marriage being an irreparably unhealthy relationship. Everyone suffers when a dysfunctional marriage is the foundation of the family. In addition, the role modelling is harmful to children in shaping unhealthy attitudes towards relationships that determine their future relationships.
      Many children get to spend more quality time with their fathers when separated, and care is divided between the parents, than when living with them constantly as a dysfunctional family.
      My siblings, and I wish our mother ended the relationship with our father sooner, to save us all years of trauma.
      My child thanked me for leaving their father. They could see for themselves how damaging it would have been to stay together. I wrote my own wedding vows and didn't break them. In my own mind I promised I would support my ex-husband when his parents died, and support him dying, should he die before me, which was more likely. I did all of that to the best of my ability. My child's father died of ALS last Christmas.
      My point is that every situation is different, and most parents will do what is in the best interests for their child, as parenting instincts are typically innate, and strong. Unless they overide their natural instincts due to being indoctrinated to stay in harmful marriages, and have social pressure with their community associating the end of a marriage with shame, guilt and failure, as my poor mother was led to believe.
      Ultimately, we don't know what goes on in the privacy of people's homes behind closed doors, unless they choose to share it with us. So it is not for us to judge others' marriage, or decide what is best for them and their children. There is no one best way for all spouses, or all children. It depends on so many factors.

      Edomite (Jew) quote - “We must realize that our party’s most powerful weapon is racial tension by propounding into the consciousness of the dark races that for centuries they have been oppressed by the whites. We can mold them to the program of the communist party. In America we will aim for subtle victory while inflaming the negro minority against the whites. We will instill into the whites a guilt complex for their exploitation of the negro. We will aid the negro’s rise to prominence in every walk of life, in the professions and in the world of sports and entertainment. With this prestige, the negro will be able to intermarry with the whites and will begin a process which will deliver America into our cause.” Israel Cohen - head of the communist party in England “A Racial Program For The Twentieth Century” (1912) Congressional Record, Vol. 103, p. 8559, June 7, 1957.

      This is real life, not a sitcom. Their life has nothing to do with The Jeffersons!

    This was so sweet! And, to let you know, my whole family saw this episode back in the day. My mother, sisters and I loved the Newlyweds show. We watched everyday and we're so surprised and happy to see black and white married couple being aired. And, to come full circle seeing you both blow up on social media by share your younger years together and now your later year. Just absolutely fabulous!! May the Lord continue to bless you both and your marriage! I was so happy for you then and now!!! 🤗🥰🙏💕
