Got lucky and met my partner when I was 18. First long term relationship and still going strong 12 years later. We’re both neurodivergent but didn’t figure that out until a few years ago. We bonded over our interests and still do. Our dates are so much fun and we enjoy doing everything together. We also have very compatible values and even though our communication isn’t always great, we always find a way around it because we’re both really committed to understanding each other’s feelings.
