I work for a couple and I’ve only met the wife and kids. They keep a list on their fridge where they put down each other’s plans, schedules, birthdays of friends, etc. Today I noticed the husband’s side of it and under important dates he had written the following:

“10 years since I met the loveliest woman. 9-year wedding anniversary. ❤️”

I live in a country where a lot of marriages end in divorce, hence, many people don’t rush to marry and often have long relationships or engagements. My ex kept reminding me that “we live here now, no one marries, this is the Scandinavian way of life”.

Enter this guy who celebrates the day he met his lovely wife. And married her ONE YEAR after. No bs about “marriages fail, why should we rush into them?”. He wanted to, so he did. A lesson for everyone.
