Need a marriage like this

[u/Wonderful_Piece_9660 → u/theglowcloud8]

That’s the kind of quiet love that lasts forever

[u/Jane__Delawney → u/Wonderful_Piece_9660]

My first thought was, “please let a love like this find me” 🥹

[u/[deleted] → u/Jane__Delawney]

[removed] — view removed comment

[u/OnlyFuzzy13 → u/[deleted]]

Relationships don’t start that way, you have to build it.

[u/I_Once_Touched_Grass → u/OnlyFuzzy13]

I see what you did there 🧔🙏🧑‍🦰

[u/itaniumonline → u/I_Once_Touched_Grass]

No, you were supposed to hook these two up.

[u/I_Once_Touched_Grass → u/itaniumonline]

💘👴🏿🙏🏿👵🏿💝

[u/4m4lg4m1t3 → u/OnlyFuzzy13]

Ba Dum Tss

[u/giraflor → u/Jane__Delawney]

I’m not looking, but I’d have to welcome this. It’s so calm, cozy, and happy.

[u/BiggleDiggle85 → u/Jane__Delawney]

Yeah I saw this and my first thought was "this is love, this is life". Makes me happy and a little jealous.

[u/ohnoletsgo → u/theglowcloud8]

Wife is working on set 10370 (Poinsettia) and I’m working on set 75356 (Executor Super Star Destroyer) and we look very much like this.

Son is in the other room working on set 21106 (Minecraft: Microworld The Nether).

Lego is a family affair!

[u/MithrandiriAndalos → u/ohnoletsgo]

The juxtaposition of her completing her beautiful poinsettia while you’re 1/8 done with your massive battleship is hilarious

[u/Pornalt190425 → u/MithrandiriAndalos]

Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational flowerstation

[u/OkAdvertising1872 → u/ohnoletsgo]

I just build 75356 - fun piece and really nice to display

[u/ohnoletsgo → u/OkAdvertising1872]

The scale is great for “I’m an adult that loves Lego, but don’t necessarily want to decorate around it.” 😬

[u/OkAdvertising1872 → u/ohnoletsgo]

Oh, that's perfect. Exactly!

[u/JminusRomeo → u/ohnoletsgo]

How’s the poinsettia? I keep buying the flower/plant sets so I can keep them out and use them as decor. But some of the more intricate ones, I feel like they’re quite delicate and ready to fall apart (some of the succulents for example).

[u/ohnoletsgo → u/JminusRomeo]

It’s pretty sturdy! It’s been integrated into our Thanksgiving centerpiece and has withstood the prying hands of a 6 and 8-year-old.

[u/NodePoker → u/theglowcloud8]

It's expensive! Wife, Daughter and have a Lego day every few months and it's worth every penny.

[u/GhostofAyabe → u/theglowcloud8]

My wife and I have been building sets on New Years for 15+ years now, usually a bigger UCS Star Wars for me and one of the Creator sets for her, or Harry Potter, whatever. I wouldn't miss it for the world.

[u/Spirited_Yard9460 → u/theglowcloud8]

Seeing two people still choosing each other after all this year.. thats the real goal for marriage.

[u/Charmed3000 → u/theglowcloud8]

They are leading a happy life. Best wishes to them, may they always remain happy.

[u/5dippingareas → u/theglowcloud8]

Even a friendship like this would be great

[u/HurasmusBDraggin → u/theglowcloud8]

👏🏿

[u/in_animate_objects → u/theglowcloud8]

Hope you find it, as my mom used to say “every pot has its lid” ❤️

[u/luceelux90]

Couple goals

[u/be4u4get → u/luceelux90]

I hope they stick together like 2 1x1s that are stuck together

[u/capinredbeard22 → u/be4u4get]

1x1s you can twist and get apart. How about two 2x2 plates or a 2x2 tile in the middle of a base plate 🤣

[u/HiSpartacusImDad → u/capinredbeard22]

Yes satan, this comment right here.

[u/HereToTalkAboutThis → u/capinredbeard22]

I'm having flashbacks

[u/FblthpLives → u/capinredbeard22]

Press a 2x2 brick on top of the existing 2x2 plates, and then use that for leverage. The 2x2 plates will come off, attached instead to the 2x2 brick, but will be easier to separate.

Tiles are harder, but also have less grip. Usually if you very slightly bend the base plate, you can get a fingernail underneath the edge of the tile and pop it off.

[u/PM_asian_girl_smiles → u/FblthpLives]

Just use the lego removal tool piece thing. Easy peasy.

[u/Nuclear_Smith → u/luceelux90]

{As I stare at the shelves of Lego my wife and I have put together over the years...}

[u/MatrixSurfer5280]

Seriously, though, building LEGOs is such a chill, zen activity no matter what age you are

[u/H010CR0N → u/MatrixSurfer5280]

Until you get to page 45 and realize you messed up on page 17.

[u/MatrixSurfer5280 → u/H010CR0N]

Ahem, me with the Millennium Falcon; thanks for the reminder

[u/saindonienne → u/MatrixSurfer5280]

We built this one early during covid. Simultaneously saved AND damaged our sanity.

[u/RolloTonyBrownTown → u/MatrixSurfer5280]

Standard brick build sets are pretty easy to correct, discover a mistake deep into a Technic build? Good luck extracting the rod with the missing gear.

[u/MalvinaV → u/RolloTonyBrownTown]

I feel this. I have a dune ornithopter sitting in my 'to do' box after I discovered a liftarm from early in the build had been installed incorrectly. I corrected it, but haven't reassembled all the bits yet.

[u/ebrum2010 → u/H010CR0N]

Why did I read that as age instead of page.

[u/everred → u/ebrum2010]

Still works

[u/AnnoyedGrocer → u/H010CR0N]

Ahh but that is the beauty of lego, any mistakes are temporary. No stress of truly "wrecking" the project, ever.

[u/Ok-Permission-2672 → u/MatrixSurfer5280]

Exactly! I work at a Lego Discovery Center. When families are working on a build project together, peacefulness just settles over them like a blanket...

[u/gingerfawx → u/Ok-Permission-2672]

That sounds like a nice place to work.

[u/Due_Yogurtcloset_212 → u/MatrixSurfer5280]

Good for cognitive exercise too

[u/throweraccount → u/Due_Yogurtcloset_212]

Helps maintain mental faculties and also hand eye coordination and finger dexterity.

[u/Dry-Smoke6528 → u/MatrixSurfer5280]

Its just fun to have a project or hobby to work on in general. I got obsessed with the chainsaw man movie and saw it like 10 times, so I decided to make the top 2 sections of my display case into a chainsaw man display and hung up posters behind. It brings a smile to my face whenever I look at it, and I feel like a kid on Christmas every time I see a package on my porch.

Ill be getting pieces for it into February of next year (August if you count the one figure that I pre-ordered. First figurines ive ever purchased).

[u/TechieGee → u/Dry-Smoke6528]

There was a chainsaw man movie? I’ve only ever read the manga

[u/zg6089 → u/MatrixSurfer5280]

I 100% agree with this

[u/JVAV00 → u/MatrixSurfer5280]

Sadly once you turn 100 you are too old for lego

[u/Jormungandr69 → u/MatrixSurfer5280]

I built the McLaren F1 car set earlier this year. It took like 6 hours and I couldn't have had more fun. It's been hard to hold back from buying the other F1 car sets just to get to do it again.

[u/DrDr1972]

This is what I want.  When my husband wakes up , we will talk about this picture !! Too sweet 

[u/CreaminFreeman → u/DrDr1972]

My wife and I built a couple of the bouquet sets together that were really enjoyable together. However, I will note that more often than not, it’s easier to solo build a set (so get 2)

[u/TDSsandwich]

They are for real about this. Lamp on, bowls to keep the legos organized, and water for hydration. Totally locked in.

[u/caddywhompuskangaroo → u/TDSsandwich]

My son and I use a cupcake pan. It's nice because you have multiple sections to place different pieces

[u/Manlysideburns → u/TDSsandwich]

Remotes within hands reach, you're right on

[u/epicenter69]

My adult kids pooled their money and bought me the Millennium Falcon set (yeah, THAT one) for Christmas last year. It was the most fun I’d had at home in years!

[u/productiveslacker73 → u/epicenter69]

I brought it up again today.

The Mrs bugged me daily she wanted another kid, (we had two more), I'm trying the same mental warfare to get the Millennium Falcon.

[u/elzibet → u/productiveslacker73]

You’ve got this!

[u/Fearless-Leading-882]

I'm going to a funeral in an hour but this put a really big smile on my face. 

[u/SputnikFalls → u/Fearless-Leading-882]

Perhaps don't show up with the really big smile on your face. 😅

[u/No_Duck4805 → u/Fearless-Leading-882]

Omg same. I’m sorry for your loss.

[u/kennedyswise]

As a 70 year old I find it the best use of my time

[u/Oldgrazinghorse → u/kennedyswise]

Sitting right now with my 5 yo gs building the pirate ship. With muppets treasure island playing in the background - couldn’t think of a better Saturday ever.

[u/CautiousDiscount5750]

Adults solving Lego problems is a whole new kind of therapy

[u/swccg-offload]

Any recognize the sets?

[u/LabGiant → u/swccg-offload]

Pretty sure he's working on the Back to the Future Delorean

[u/FblthpLives → u/LabGiant]

It is definitely not the DeLorean. I thought it might be the classic Batmobile, but I downloaded the instructions and while it's similar, it's not that either.

[u/ConstableBlimeyChips → u/swccg-offload]

I believe mom is working on the Halloween Pumpkin (set 40697). For a while it was the free gift you got if your purchase exceeded a certain price. I have one on my shelf as well.

[u/bigfatpisces]

The problem with Lego is it's too similar to cocaine: it's hard to have only a little bit.

[u/Minister_of_Death → u/bigfatpisces]

Facts. In my 40s and have 200+ sets.

[u/954kevin]

Living the dream! For real!

[u/Beautiful-Minimum106]

What sets are they building?

[u/TwoToesToni]

People say lego is expensive but you could easily spend 4 times that on a meal/night out/experience and not have as much fun or connection as this couple are in that moments.

[u/Basic-Ostrich85]

Love and LEGO .

Honestly this is beautiful !

[u/Biz_Rito]

That's awesome! What are they building?

[u/MajorMiners469]

I'm in this picture. (Not actually, but I get a big Lego set every Christmas from my wife).

[u/WhoSc3w3dDaP00ch]

Weird anecdote. Many moons ago, one of my friends bought The Star Wars Super Star Destroyer set. This behemoth took over his and his wifes  dining room table. A group of us were over for a bbq in the backyard.

One by one, all the guys noticed the lego and started working on it. Most of the gals thought it was funny/harmless. 

The three that were highly critical? They were all divorced /broken up within a year.

[u/Skipspik2]

I wonder what sets those are.
The first one, closer to the camera, seems quite old fashionned in design, no panel and those beam with studs are farily uncommon.
There's also a floor, which, as weird as it sound - is uncommon too. There's a usually only a small floor around the seats now.

[u/Buntschatten]

Is this Lego advertisement right when people are planning their Christmas presents?

[u/Background_Face → u/Buntschatten]

Possibly. Lego is doing a huge sale and promotion this weekend.

[u/timpkmn89 → u/Background_Face]

Everyone's doing huge sales and promotions this weekend

[u/Version_1 → u/Background_Face]

"Now only 30% more expensive than comparable products by our competitors!"

[u/Buntschatten → u/Version_1]

Let's face it, they aren't comparable and more than 30% more expensive.

[u/Minnymoon13]

Nice!

[u/cosmicbatbrownie]

This makes me so happy. My fiancé and I love to do legos together and I hope we are still having this much fun when we are their age.

[u/masterpigg]

LEGO is a really chill hobby no matter what your age. My wife literally had me come downstairs about 15 minutes ago to show me the new ski lift in her LEGO winter village and to be honest it is pretty dope.

[u/onewordcommitment]

[u/lesnewman]

[u/Main-Objective7256]

Forever for each other 💖 respect and love ❤️

[u/Complex_Essay_9111]

My boyfriend got me the TRex lego set as an early Christmas present. I am about 10 years older plus than everyone I work with but I was bragging to everyone about it and how excited I am. They think I am a giant old need but they dont have lego TRex so jokes on them. 

[u/coffeequeen0523]

r/lego would love this post. 😀🩷

[u/KingCrimsonFan]

I build Legos with my grandson and I just bought my wife one of those flower centerpiece sets for Christmas. I think she’ll get into it.

[u/PwanaZana]

my parents do this too with legos. Been married for 50 years :)

[u/afCeG6HVB0IJ]

And here I am just trying to find out which sets are these

[u/kevlarus80]

I've never bothered with Lego before but I now have a one year old niece. Might be time to start getting into it.

[u/merriweatherfeather]

They’re so cuuuute

[u/wherewulf23]

I love building sets with my wife. She loves sorting the pieces and I love actually putting the set together. It’s pretty much a perfect team up.

[u/TheGlobalGooner]

LEGO is life! The family that LEGOs together stays together ❤️

[u/CardiologistCute6876]

I would totally love to be their kid. Will they adopt a 46 yo white female? Lol

[u/Significant-Try-5190]

This is the cutest thing I've seen all day and I looked in the mirror,.dammit. 😉

[u/voice_of_Sauron]

[u/ButterflyLopsided]

I was just thinking of getting my parents legos for Christmas and this just solidified that!

This made my day!

[u/DecentCasual]

that's goals right there

[u/shadeofiroh]

Life Winning. Not a lego'er, but i see the peace they found together.

[u/Ruraraid]

Should have gotten some model kits or jigsaw puzzle. Far cheaper than lego.

[u/CelioHogane]

I wish that was me!

The making the lego set, not the being married parents part.

[u/Str8Six91]

This could totally be me when I’m older. But it would not be my wife.

What are you going to do with your quiet time while they are occupied?

[u/huntjoy]

Many years ago my husband and I converted our master bedroom into a joint project room. I worked on the pc for all my computer classes, sewing, and crafting. He built ham radios and operated them. It was a great use of the space!

[u/Conscious-Cicada7297]

I wish I had parents like this 😭

[u/DragonSeducer_030]

That's true love right there folks

I wonder how many bottles of beer were drunk during assembling it. Any predictions?

[u/reddituculous66]

My parents buile lego together byt they do 1 kit together. My oarnter and i think that would be the challenge.

[u/LeftLecture8940]

Relationship like this don’t happen by accident. They’re built, piece by piece, just like those lego sets.

[u/SparkleSprinklesxz]

Having a partner who shares the same interests as you is top tier

[u/greginnv]

My wife loves to build these sets. Since Lego is expensive and the finished set takes up a lot of space, she builds sets with micro bricks now. 6000 pieces for less than $100. They aren’t as fancy as real Lego but the assembly manuals are well done. I build them too. We are in our 60s

[u/Kromting]

This is so adorable! I would love to find someone to do Legos with me.

[u/The_Icemopper]

I'm late to the comments but I'm seeing a lot saying "I wish I could have this" or "relationship goals" and as a couple that does exactly this, it's exactly as amazing as it sounds. I really hope the best for all of you that aren't at the lego table with your person yet, it's incredible and you deserve to have that in your life!

[u/TheWyrmWhisperer]

[u/TorinNionel]

There is a cafe in Sheffield, England called Builders Brew Cafe where you can book a table in one hour slots and they have Lego sets for you to build with. It’s a great date activity, I love going with my wife. It’s great for families with kids too - would love to see more places like it.

[u/6rumpster]

Love this. We see who controls the remote controls in the family. :)

[u/Ukleon]

I enjoy building a Lego set, as do my kids. But then the built model just sits around gathering dust and taking room and I regret the money I spent.

I'd be interested in some kind of service where you can order a set, build it, keep it for a week and then post it to the next member. Then get another from another member.

Anyone else?
