When Steve and I were first together, some of my friends had a hard time understanding why I included him in most of my decisions or at least discussed them with him. They saw it as getting permission. They didn't like the "control" he seemed to have over me.
Now that they are getting to the next step - serious boyfriends, engaged and married - I hope that they now understand. I was way ahead of most of my friends and I've lost a few because of it. It was hard for me, trying to make them understand and also trying to see where they were coming from, trying to make all sides happy, including my own side.
I just want them to know that I'm so super excited for them as they journey into the next stage of their own lives! I'm always here to listen to the happy, fun retelling of an event or even the rant of a pet peeve. I'm here.
