Our 2nd anniversary is looming a few days hence. 2 years on the battles are fewer and the compromises easier. We've celebrated 4 christmases together. A lot has changed and things are still changing but we are more settled together as a couple.
The unchanging motto is; you have to work at it every day.

Many congrats.  :-*

Congratulations DS !!
FSUW are not for entry level daters. FSUW don't do vague FSUW like a man of action so be a man of action  If you find a promising girl, get your butt on a plane. There are a hundred ways to be successful and a thousand ways to f#ck it up
