45. Lover Boy and I are madly, happily married.

I adore him. I have never felt so physically and emotionally secure in my life. I have never been so satisfied as a person and a woman. Oddly, he says I make him happy, bring him a sense of peace and purpose. I feel like a giddy school girl just thinking about him. Even when we've had our serious moments we have confronted those moments always with the thought we were on the same team.

Yet, to read the responses in this thread you'd think I spend my every moment emasculating him in front of his sister.

It was a light-hearted pause from a moment when an unsure girl confronted the reality of moving towards womanhood. Fear was turned to laughter, uncertainty became a less-frightening thing.

I refuse to feel bad about that. My only mistake was sharing it here, apparently.
