I was ready to marry long before Dominic was. Although he brought it up first. I was done playing boyfriend/girlfriend. I had found the one I was ready. At the ripe old age of 24. Nevermind he didnt have a good job or that we had no money in savings at all. Had I known...right? But I was so ready. So I drew a mental line in the sand. If he didnt propose by my birthday I was going away to school and buying a new car. He was wasting time. We didnt go out. We didnt travel. We didnt do anything just hung out. I was bored, I was restless.
Every holiday was poised and ready. Every time he left the room it was the moment. Every time we out to something it was the moment. Every holiday. I mean every holiday for two years I tortured myself waiting waiting.
I have no advice for those that have been waiting. With the holidays coming every moment is the same moment for me. I am waiting for a wedding too. I am waiting. And I wont even waste my time saying "make sure you have money saved and plans for where you 're going to live/work etc." in the end it's the love that matters. In the end can you handle this person and his mother and family and friends all the things he does that makes you crazy for the rest of you life? And everything this person does that might be cute or very annoying his children will do too.
Dominic and I have been thru more than the average bear. Good times bad times you name it but I still love him. I still get excited when he's about to walk in the door. I still love watching him sleep at night. I love that sometimes Derek and Joseph are miniature hims and I cant wait to grow old with him. He was worth the wait.
