Love and Marriage...
Setting aside the Christmas crap for a little while (fight postponed til we're both in a better mood about it all), we had an interesting discussion about the future this morning.
He thinks (and I can hardly disagree) that the twin issues of His family and us (not) having children will be the ones that will ultimately 'make or break' our marriage in the future. I was quite surprised by this, as I always think of myself as being the one that worries about the future, and He's always been pretty much 'live for the moment'.
As I say, I could hardly disagree, so instead we agreed that at the moment, when neither of us are that happy with His family, and neither of us want children, we should just muddle along and leave the fututre to take care of itself. Anyway, we've vowed to take a year off when we turn 30 and go travelling round the world, so we'll worry about nasty alien baby things and the nightmare of his clan when we return.
So, that gives our marriage another 5 years at least...
