We used both condoms and NuvaRing until almost our 1 year wedding anniversary. So yeah, for the first 3.5 years that we were together. Been "bare" (NuvaRing only) for less than a year now, and loving it. But condoms were never really an issue for either of us, anyway... it was way, way, WAY worth the peace of mind and knowledge that we would not be having children until we were absolutely ready for it.
I knew from the beginning that I could never have gone through with an abortion... and while ktsp would have been fine with it at the beginning, as our relationship developed... he would have had a harder time with aborting, since we were so much more attached and looking towards marriage and the future. So we were both just fine with doubling up. It had nothing to do with trust of each other (we had basically no partners before each other), and everything to do with not trusting the hormonal BC--for good reason.
