Get to Know Me & C

I saw this on Tangles' blog, Tangled In Texas, and though C and I aren't married, I wanted to participate and share a bit about us!

C and I in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, September 2010

Please excuse the black box, he's blog-shy!

A few years. We met through a mutual friend

Neither! We're both only children!
♥ Do you have any children together? 
Nope
♥ What about pets? 
Nope, no furbabies either. Though I want a puggle!
♥ Which situation is the hardest on you as a couple? 
Work. Or rather my job, because I work so far from home, and commuting takes a lot of time away from our time together in the evenings
♥ Did you go to the same school? 
No
♥ Are you from the same home town? 
No, I'm from North Jerz and he's from Central. Big difference even though it's in the same state.
♥ Who is the most sensitive? 
Me.
♥ Where do you eat out most as a couple? 
We get take out more than we eat out, so it's usually either pizza or Burger King.
♥ Where is the furthest you two have traveled together as a couple? 
Hawaii for a friend's wedding
♥ Who has the worst temper? 
Him...DEFINITELY!
♥ Who does the cooking? 
He does, for own own safety! I'm a really bad cook, but I can bake!
♥ Who is more social? 
Me, DEFINITELY!!
♥ Who is the neat-freak? 
Neither one of us, though I'm the one who keeps things tidy and does the cleaning.
♥ Who is the more stubborn? 
Oooh that's a tough one! I think he is, but it's a close call. 
♥ Who hogs the bed? 
Depends who's in it first! I would say him though- he likes to sprawl out diagonally across the whole bed!
♥ Who wakes up earlier? 
Him.
♥ Where was your first date? 
Um. Our first date was when he invited me to a friend's wedding. But I left him after the reception instead of going to the afterparty...We had a rough beginning because he kept trying to date me when I was in a relationship with someone else!
♥ Who has the bigger family? 
Him - He has cousins, aunts, and uncles in the area, whereas mine are abroad and I only know one side.
♥ Do you get flowers often? 
No, but I wish I did! He was better at that in the beginning *sigh*
♥ How do you spend the holidays? 
I usually split them up- sometimes I'll go with his family, sometimes I'll be with my momma.
♥ How long did it take to get serious? 
Not long.  We started dating in October 2008, moved in together August 2009, and have been going on adventures ever since!
♥ Who does the laundry? 
Me!  He's terrible at putting them away though. But he does all the ironing!!
