18 Years Yesterday ...

Jun 01, 2014 15:24

As of yesterday, Bobby and I have been together for 18 years.

I have told the story before of how we got together at the ages of 14 (me) and just-barely-15 (him) at a dance at our nerdy math-science magnet school, so I won't repeat it now. Suffice to say that we have been together for well over half of our lives by now with no plans on changing ( Read more... )

Aww, all he wants is you hon and to love you is to accept you just as you are, introvert or not :) Just gorgeous as always. And contgrats, we're heading for 20 years together...

I don't think introverts are necessarily difficult or undesirable, but he is much easier-going than I am! :D Which has not so much to do with introversion, per se, so much as being descended from a long line of stubborn people!

Thank you ... and wow! The big 2-0. :) We'll be there to, before you know it ...

Thank you so much! I still think about it sometimes and get butterflies that I married Bobby, who always seemed so out-of-reach to me. Whoddathunk? :D

Congrats to both of you. It's a real milestone and just the beginning for you. DH and I are coming on 35 this fall (watch me run far, far away - LOL).

Bobby was so skinny when he was in high school. He grew up nice - very nice, and as I said before, I really love his new hairstyle. The two of you are just perfect for each other. Here's my wishes for many. many more anniversaries for the two of you.

Thank you--and congrats to you too on your own upcoming milestone! :) (Eighteen isn't exactly a milestone, although I was joking that our relationship can now join the army, buy cigarettes [no alcohol yet, though], get scammed by a credit card company, get soaked for a loan, and ... get married! :D)

He had a very boyish face in high school. He was still one of the biggest kids in our class. He was over six feet and already shaving daily when I met him in the ninth grade! People were intimidated by him because of his size. (He definitely threatened a person or two on my behalf ... *ahem*) He often got confused for a senior when we were freshmen.
