BF and I started very much as "just" friends. Other people were assuming we were a couple long before we were aware of it ourselves.
We're middle aged, neither has any ambition to marry or live together, but we have a nice comfortable life, having fun, travelling together and generally being there for one another.
Were coming up to a year since we got very drunk and started snogging each other, and the rest, as they say, is history.
An anniversary of when you got together has always seemed a bit naff to me, but if there is never to be a wedding anniversary...?
