We met in the dorms at university when he was a junior. We hung out as a large group. One summer, he moved in with 3 friends I had known for 4 years. I went over and hung out and watched/played D&D and other roleplaying games. He started out small, asking if I wanted tea, carrying my bags from the grocery store, etc. I consider myself a hardcore feminist, the way he did these things were just to show he liked me. We started dating and things have gone really well.
Slightly odd part: two years before we started dating, during his freshman year, he asked my sister on a date. She said yes and then backed out. It was to a play and he had purchased her ticket for $17. The running joke became my sister owed him $17 for the ticket. We figured it would just be a running joke but during her toast to us at our wedding, she gave us $20. It was very sweet. There is no ill will between them.
We are both realistic about our relationship. We say that we will be together for 60 years (both of us will be 85 then) come hell or high water. We are two months in!
