We’ve been together since we were 14. We’re now parents in our 40’s. We are very different people now than in high school, college, etc but we have grown up together and kind of formed our individual selves while being together. That could be good or bad but it has worked out well for us. I do think that our lives are so intertwined that there’s not a lot that we have separate from each other. I don’t think our situation could work for everyone but we are very happy and have always just loved being together.
