No comment on the age questions.
We live together. We met over three and a half years ago. We've been together for 9 months less than that. Gave him: A DVD of the first season of All in the Family, a Ralph Lauren rugby, a waffle maker, and a few other things. Received from him: Nikon Coolpix digital camera with various accessories, accessories to go with the iPod he gave me last Christmas, and perfume. We are both happy. I asked him if he liked everything. He said that anything that I gave to him would make him happy because it comes from me. :) |
How old? No comment. But, we are old enough to vote, old enough to drink, old enough to rent cars in all 50 states.
Relationship Status Dating for 4 years and 9 months. We haven't exchanged presents yet. We knew we'd be away from each other for Christmas Day, and I wanted to finish the shopping for my family while I was still in NYC. I'm getting his presents tomorrow, and when I get back to the city before heading to Thailand, we're going to exchange presents and unwrap the gifts our families got for the other. |
