thanks for the input, zack & blender.
i see people in a way questioning my relationship and ive to say it somehow amuses me. i think ill never be able to explain this properly, we're the only ones who can understand what the deal is. he isnt married and ive spoken to his family, yes. as for why we've to wait id rather not get into that its so absurd and stupid. im a sceptic person myself but this is my certainty: i know it will happen. i wrote here just because ... actually i dont know why... he gives me all the reassurence i need and we talk about this whenever i want. i just wanted to see what other people in this situation do, how they cope.
