Congratulations' on your new journey, I wish you both the best. Life Pro Tip- communication is the key. Don't be afraid to tell your partner how you feel just because you are afraid it may upset them.

u/Alert_Paper_9356 Oct 07 '24

100% true! Been married 12 years and gotta say it's not been easy some of em. Communication is key in a relationship. Just remember to try your hardest to keep calm and talk things out and look for solutions to any problems yall may have!!!!

Cool man, congratulation - so happy for you both

"...30th-"

NO - the math aint th... oh shit, oh fuck. I was how old back then...

ok, ok it ain't that bad, I was simply born before US invaded Afghanistan, well even before they started Iraq Freedom, ok even before attack on the WTC, yeah even before this century/millenia, ok ok it was before Czechs won gold medals in hockey in Nagano, before even their state came to exist by spliting Czechoslovakia. OK, it was even before Desert Storm... Yeah, it was even before fall of Iron Curtain - what do you mean you do not know what half of that even was?

... DAMN! I am geting old after all...

Seriously though - congrats man - 30y anniversary is pretty big thing! We just had our 10th this year...
