This is kind of like the 25 things - except there are pre-decided questions and it's about you and your spouse, not just you. Come on, play along - inquiring minds want to know! ;-) Just copy this post into your own notes & change the answers!
♥ What are your middle names?
Eric & Lee
♥ How long have you been together?
12 years as friends, 11 years as a couple, 7 married.
♥ How long did you know each other before you started dating?
A year
♥ Who asked who out?
Er...It was more of a mutual thing. I admitted to him that I wanted more than just a friendship and he said he had the same feelings and it just sort of happened.
♥ How old are each of you?
Kurt turned 31 last September, I turned 31 last February.
♥ Whose siblings do/did you see the most?
Kurt's.
♥ Do you have any children together?
A daughter and a son. Hopefully another one within a year.
♥ What about pets?
Five cats, four indoor, one outdoor.
♥ Which situation is the hardest on you as a couple?
Whenever we have to be apart for more than a day. When I travel without him or he travels without me. Yeah, sappy, I know, but it's true.
♥ Did you go to the same school?
Nope.
♥ Are you from the same home town?
Nope, we lived halfway across the continent from one another when we first met.
♥ Who is the smartest?
Kurt by far.
♥ Who is the most sensitive?
Me.
♥ Where do you eat out most as a couple?
Without the the children? That happens once a quarter...if that often. It's called 'can't afford babysitting.'
♥ Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple?
Maryland
♥ Who has the worst temper?
Oh me. Definitely me.
♥ Who does the cooking?
It's split about 50/50. We go through spells where he does more and then all of a sudden I'll do more. It evens out in the end.
♥ Who is more social?
Definitely me.
♥Who is the neat freak?
Neat freak? Us? *dies laughing*
♥ Who is the more stubborn?
Me
♥ Who hogs the bed?
Kurt will say me, but he has no idea how much he can hog it too. :-p
♥ Who wakes up earlier?
Kurt. Definitely Kurt.
♥ Where was your first date?
Um. If it wasn't the time we spent watching movies in a hostel where Kurt was staying when we met face to face (we originally met online), then it would be my church's (at the time) 4th of July picnic.
♥Who has the bigger family?
Kurt has a larger immediate family. I have a lot more in the way of cousins, second cousins, etc - not that I know any of them.
♥ Do you get flowers often?
Nope.
♥ How do you spend the holidays?
With each other, always. Sometimes with other family if they come down.
♥ Who is more jealous?
Jealousy has never been an issue with us.
♥ How long did it take to get serious?
a year.
♥ Who eats more?
Kurt
♥ Who does/did the laundry?
We split that.
♥ Who’s better with the computer?
Kurt, but that's not surprising considering he's a programmer.
♥ Who drives when you are together?
Kurt
And an extra one since this didn't mention it:
How did we meet?
We met while playing characters on an online White Wolf "Vampire: The Masquerade" talker. I was playing an adult vampire, Kurt had a child vampire. My character had taken a little girl vampire under her care and that character introduced my character to Kurt's. We had to pause the roleplaying since the guy who played the little girl had to leave and we just started chatting out of character and pretty much immediately became friends. Five years later, we were married.
