Sometimes we need to cancel other plans or clear weekends for each other but it's so worth it


Unimportant friends
Idk I feel like a lot of things but it's hard to name


He's given up some control. I've given up guy friends.


Have we given up anything? I'm not sure??? I know that we sometimes hold back saying something or arguing in public if something happens or bothers us bc that helps our relationship work way better bc I find it immature and unnecessary to do something like that out in the open. It needs to be handled privately.


Less vidya time


personally bad habits together nothing.


I can think of more things that we gave gained rather than things we have given up. I suppose that I have given up most of my needs and turned them into our needs and our wants and what would be best for us.


The old me, the me that didn't better me or my relationship. I gladly give that up to be with my beautiful and wonderful fiance.


I don't think we've given up anything.


Honestly I think one of the greatest things about our relationship is that I feel I never really have anything up to be with Erica. It's such a fulfilling relationship that I honestly feel like the relationship has given me substantially more than whatever insignificant amount of trivial things I've unknowingly given up.
