No, you're husband isn't responsible for the dark part of the story. Apple trees don't grow true from seed. The only way to really propagate an apple tree is to create a scion. It's not easy

Maybe he's responsible. He might be several hundred years old and there is no way to tell.

We lovingly nicknamed hub/dad "killjoy" because he will explain the science or greed behind the story. And he also buys Unfrosted pop tarts.

definitely not married yet

I don't do lukewarm. I especially wouldn't do it if I were unmarried and in my 20s. imagine that waning over 20+ years of marriage... Edit: does that make me a realist or a killjoy?

An old Gold?

An old Gold?

That's what I'm thinking.

well I'm only 26. I'll take all of this into account

Yeah, I think my guy is an old god too. He's so patient, he laughs at my bad jokes. I can't quite figure it out. I've been around a lot of men, but this one just seems to like me.

Trust me when I say that there are lows and highs. There comes a certain amount of complacency and comfort in a relationship. If this is what you're getting in what should be the height of your romance, you're best off thinking about it further before progressing. As people get older, shit happens. It sucks. It makes you think about just leaving. If you can't remember the passion and the love that made you say "I do" in the first place then it would make walking out super easy. My husband and I have been together since I was 19. It burned hot for the first 10 years or so. Kids and health issues and general "grown up shit" have definitely caused some issues. If I couldn't vividly remember how I felt in those days, didn't see a glimpse here and there... I dunno.

In other words, take it from an "old, wise" bitch. Things don't get easier. Life just throws more complications into the mix.

You're absolutely right. 20s is way too young too young to settle. You can do that in another decade or so if you must. I say you're a realist and that's a good thing. Go in clear-eyed.

It's kind of complicated right now. I'd be lying if I said I didn't think about bailing, but she's been so stressed with school (she's going back in the Fall and also finding a new job). I'm giving her some leeway here. She is a good girl. That's why I'm holding out here. I think she's worth it in the long run

C'mere @PeachyRider.
