Equal, easy, impassionate (16 years, 3 young kids)

Relationships change though. These are all current feelings which obviously adapt and change over time. Most relationships have ups and downs.

Kind, supportive, loving.

Been together over 3 years, don’t live together but are planning to retire together in 6 years time. Was only meant to be FWB and transitioning to a committed relationship was a bit tough (add in covid to make shit worse). However we’ve been totally peaceful and happy since February and seem to have weathered the storm.
