We Are Attached at the Hip

A little peek into our life as Domestic Partners

We are attached at the hip, we know it, you know it, and that is awesome.

Jared and I make a very interesting pair.  He had very little dating or life experience and I was the complete opposite.  I have lived enough for a few lives but that is a story for another day.  I have been told that I have brought Jared out of his shell.  I am proud that I am the one who got to be with him through all of our story.  In the beginning we immersed ourselves in each other.  I really got to know him.  I opened up to him and I can honestly say that this man is worth fighting for. 
We are both varying degrees of phobic about being in public.  He hides behind his phone or in a closet. While I hide my discomfort with idle chit chat laughing at my own very dumb jokes.  Every time I see him I smile, he does the same.  I have learned that it isn't growing old with someone as much as growing up together. (1) He waits for me to get my dinner to the table before he starts to eat.  I make him a special breakfast at least once a week usually after him working.  He tells me I am pretty, I tell him the same.  We are that couple that watches a romantic movie and tries to figure out how that couple is us.  We are just both very lucky to have each other and we know it.  We want to be together if at all possible and we like it that way.  I am his guard when we go in public, he falls in behind me and he is tall enough to see over the crowd.  He is one of the shyest people I have ever met and I grew up with Sara.  I am the loudest, most animated, unique person he has ever met.  I like to use a line from a romantic movie that I love to describe us "He doesn't make sense, I don't make sense, together we make sense.".(2)
I hope this hasn't been to rambling for you and maybe it gives you something to think about.  I am @dorkfeasor on Twitter if you want some of my wit in 140 characters. Also lots of posts about my favorite shows and podcasts.
