Awww you guys are so cute. It takes a lot of compromise, trust, faith, dedication, honesty and a whole lot of stuff to make a relationship last like that. And yes, luck. Some people are just meant to be together.
I was talking to my friend yesterday who is struggling with the father of her kids. She's angry and irritated with him alot, and he's not the most empathetic sort. As bad as it sounds, it made me feel grateful for how strong me and Jamie are. 17 years is not bad and we are still silly in love. I'm the frog though, but he thinks I'm the most beautiful princess ever. Blows me away. My friend always holds us up as this holy example of a good relationship she wants for herself. I guess I was NEVER going to settle for anything less, but I did choose a good one. We decided we would get married on Day3 ..and did, a year later. I guess it cpuld have ended badly but I think we were MEANT to be together. How GOOD does it feel to be with the person you know you'll be with forever??
And you aren't that frog like, dear. Faith obviously thinks you are gorgeous! Xx
Nice story and yes 17 years is a good number for sure.
You know, I hear people say that it must get boring or stuff like that and I just smile and say no. In my head I'm like, you will never know for yourself, so just keep doing what you do and regret will come knocking someday.
There is nothing quite like having that person beside you right? Through thick and thin, reliable and honest, dedicated and well, just there. It's a nice feeling.
I think you guys are like us and that's a pretty cool way to be. We are lucky right?
P.s. I am a frog...But they're cute right? I mean look at Kermit! Lol. And yes,, for some reason Faith thinks I'm worth keeping. I have no clue why, bat am pleased about it.
