And when you get totally stressed out and about to yell, just ask yourself if it will matter in five years.

But knowing what you have as your own allows you to compromise more easily on the rest.<BR/><BR/>However, my personal policy about living as partners is don't do it until you're ready to make it permanent. But nobody ever wants to hear that, so don't consider that as advice.Robin M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10336915224193704866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13165628.post-1119499601215730502005-06-22T21:06:00.000-07:002005-06-22T21:06:00.000-07:00Awesome!
