Yesterday, the LTR and I celebrated our 20th anniversary.
People sometimes ask "what's the secret?"
There isn't one. No magic answers, no silver bullet, no Cupid's arrow to pin you together forever. Love isn't necessarily enough (though a necessary ingredient). No, it's a lot of work, compromise and communication. And mostly, it's a choice.
I'm happy with the choice I've made. I love the LTR. Our relationship is not perfect (are there any?) but he and it make me happy.
He's in Denver now.
Sweet dreams, H. I miss you.
