It probably comes from the line in Miyamoto Musashi’s *The Book of Five Rings*: “A thousand days of practice is training; ten thousand days of practice is refinement.”
So perhaps he’s saying, “Our relationship (practice) has only been going on for three years… I’m going to keep it up for 30 years!” That must be his enthusiasm… though probably not, lol.

You could simply ask, “What do you mean by that?”
If you look at it negatively, it could sound like he’s just continuing out of habit. Saying something like, “It’s nice that we’ve lasted three years,” doesn’t seem particularly positive, either.
You can probably tell from the atmosphere when you meet whether he means it positively or negatively, though...

The writing style is similar to that of past questions.
I’m guessing it’s the same person, but I also find it questionable to include wording that seems to test the respondents, such as:
> “What do you think is going on deep down psychologically?”

This person also has no previous question history under their ID. They could at least say something like, “This is my first time asking a question.”
Who cares about the other person’s deep psychology? You’d be better off coming up with a clever response.
For example, say something like, “That’s right. When we first met three years ago, we did this and that, didn’t we? Then we got a little closer and did this and that too. I remember I couldn’t help laughing when you said that to me…” That way, you bring up the fun memories they have and get them to replay them in their mind. Then they’ll think, “I had so many good times with this girl,” refreshing those memories and helping them settle into long-term memory.
Psychology isn’t something you apply to understand people—it’s something you use to manipulate them. You don’t draw out their subconscious; you implant ideas in it.
