After three years, my buddy Jason and I are officially partners
We're not boyfriends. We're not lovers, we're partners. Pretty much everything stays the same,he will live in boulder and I will go visit him every week. (like I have been during the last three years). We have gotten really close since I quit drinking (40 days now) and we want to take our relationship a step further.

We are in constant contact through IM and text and it's nice to have someone with you all day.

Anyway, I haven't been intimate with anyone in over three years.This is going to be a life changing event, that's for sure.

3. Thanks Lefty
the only thing that sucks is we keep opposite hours,in fact he is peeved at me for crashing on him so early last night.

11. congrats!


and that'll work out- my husband is a morning person, I'm a lifelong night owl... over time we've both adjusted well.

Wishing you both many happy and healthy days ahead!

Congratulation, Roon!!!!

Both on the 40 days... AND on the closeness you share with another
human being.
.
.
.
.
.
That closeness is on the top of many, if not most, of our wish lists.
.
.
.
.
.
Enjoy and celebrate life each and every day, my friend.
.

We're going to want Harley pictures when you reach THAT goal.

I know how to ride dirt bikes but I am going to need a little training on a street bike. I am going to see if my parents will give me lessons.

33. Une vie pleine d'amour. A life full of love.
Many happy years to the both of you. My partner, Amanda and I will take a bottle of red wine out to the garden this evening and light a couple of candles. Then we will drink a toast to the two of you.

36. Congrats. But try to see each other as often as possible -- long distance
relationships can turn toxic.
