Celebration
It's been 5 years of this, on 28 March precisely.My longest relationship? By far.
My best relationship? Compared to what? :-)
The up's?*
- having a personal heater under the blanket
- the massages
- the walks
- the laughter
- the dinners at Casa al Parma
- the letters written by hand
- only half of house rent/loan
- watching Top Gear together
- the little ones (no, no kids, don't worry, and no plans either, thanks for asking; that can lead to the next bullet point:
- no kids
- exchanging cartoons (my personal favourite below)
- being picked-up from work
- the increased attention from other men
- questions such as "do you want to make a visit to the city hall with me?"
- assessments such as "I'm going fishing with Ben next weekend", "you should go shopping", "let's go to the restaurant"
The down's?*
- 50% more dirty laundry
- 80% more ironing (proportionally, I don't generally buy clothes that need ironing...)
- the waking-up early in weekends (not that much anymore)
- connected to the above, the sound of a particular vacuum-cleaner...
- no pets (yet)
- assessments such as "I'm going fishing with Ben next weekend", "you should go shopping", "let's go to the restaurant"

- the headaches and the earaches (ok, not that bad)
- the things left all over the place
- questions such as "whom are you going out with?", "can I buy myself ... ?"
- assessments such as "slow down!! can't you see you just cut the turn?!!", "you didn't tell me that", "I'll take a bath first", "out of the way!!", "ja, ja!"
*some items have been left out on purpose in order to protect my privacy, and ultimately, my life

Ja, ja. I love you too. Stop nagging.

I specifically said I left out some items for my own sake. "His family" was one of them :-))
