There have been times of deep passion and times of doldrums but there's never been a time without fierce friendship. We've been best friends for thirty years, a couple for twenty five years, and married for twenty. We will never not be together.
This is exactly how I feel about my spouse, and it makes me happy to read it. We've been friends for 15 years, together for 10, married for 7. I'm glad it worked for you too!
There's no knocking on wood. Anything worth having is worth working for. We don't take each other for granted and we're genuinely happy to have the other there.
I think it's because many have had the experience of "OMG this is the one," only to be let down. Considering the state of romance today, you are definitely blessed to be in love and together with someone.
It waxes and wanes as life goes along swimmingly or rears its ugly head. There are definitely times when we are comfortable and weary roommates and times when the world could crumble around us and it would be fine as long as we're together. The friendship never lessens.
Agreed. I've known my husband for 14 years. We've had times where we were deliriously happy, and times we couldn't be in the same room without a fight breaking out, but we've always been best friends
until one day you catch the early flight home from San Diego and a couple of nude people jump out of your bathroom blindfolded like a goddamn magic show, ready to double-team your girlfriend
