Coming up on 7 years married, probably about another 2 maybe 3 years together (she seems to think we were dating for a while before I realized it, I'm kind of dense)
We were friends for probably about another 2 or 3 years before that, and for probably about that long again before that we kind of recognized each other as friends-of-friends but only ever bumped into each other in-passing and didn't hang out.
i envy ya'll with concrete dates. my partner and i have been together somewhere around 10 years. we've been talking off and on about getting officially married, partly to have a precise anniversary lol
You can just choose a day and go with it. As long as both of you agree, and it's approximate it's fine. We just count earth going around the sun, it's divided arbitrarily, and Earth's never going to be in exact place anyway.
22 years, been married for ~18 by now...
Married twice, to the same woman, first time for the paperwork (that was called a Registered partnership, legally the same as marriage, with a slight difference in the type of "contract"), second time (actual marriage) for the party. Second wedding was 15 years ago
Why? That's not really relevant for anything...
I've had multiple relations and I love most of them. A few hurt me, most healed me, and most were very passionate. The one I'm currently entertaining is perfect for me.
