Which is huge. I'm reminded yet again of my deeply insightful observation that 95% of relationships is finding someone to put up with your crap, but by the same token, when you realize just HOW MUCH insane crap is out there and you're still willing to try, that's a major accomplishment. When you try, and it works, and it lasts, well, worst case scenario it'll be a hell of a ride, and you may just end up with a miracle all your own forever that no one can take, so why not grab it with both hands? I'm the Relationship Expert now, you see.

The funny thing is, with Vincent it doesn't feel like nearly 5 years, and it doesn't feel like I'm done getting to know him nor that I'm done learning from him. It's been one of the easiest and smooth sailing relationships I've ever been in.
I heard a rumor the cake is a lie.</wary> 

LOL... brilliant!
Announcement: Vincent and I are engaged

In gay marriages, does the top always ask the bottom?
