yes it sure has done that. it has made us closer and made us realise how we really feel.

it just takes time and effort and like everything else you have to want to put the work in.
anyways all you KC people get out there and try things you are scared to do it will amaze you the impact it has on your self esteem and confidence.

Hi James
Hope all goes well for you!
Can't really add much to what everyone else has said - my husband & I (sounds like the queen doesn't it!) have been supportive of each other throughout our relationship which has had it's ups and downs but have always allowed each other their own space too - for us that has been the crucial factor I guess. And if things get a bit difficult talk them through - don't give up at the first hurdle. I can be a right stroppy cow sometimes but we always end up having a laugh! We must be doing something right - we will be celebrating 30 years of marriage later this year!

Hey James
Really pleased for you.
To me one of the most important factors in a relationship is friendship, my husband is my best friend - he's had to deal with some c**p from me over the years, usually connected to certain health problems I've encountered - that is when I see him for what he is - my best friend. Sounds a bit slushy doesnt it - but thats how I feel.
