I have actuall...This was a great blog post, Kimmie. I have actually been thinking about this a lot recently. Obviously, I am at the very beginning of my metamorphosis, but I like to think that I have made some changes in the last year of being with Heather. I will outline a few of them for you here.<br /><br />One of the biggest ways is helping me to be more accommodating. I think that anyone who is in a serious relationship would be able to say the same. I've always like to think that I am easy-going, wasn't super opinionated, and didn't always need things to be my way. I have learned in the meantime that I am not those things. At least not to the degree I always have believed. Heather has helped me to recognize this about myself and begin to improve.<br /><br />Just last night we went to register for wedding gifts at Target, and the whole process was fun and relatively painless, even though there were some things that we registered for that I didn't like, or things that I wanted to register for that we didn't. Just by being herself and loving me in spite of (and for) my flaws and strong opinions, she has helped me to understand that life doesn't have to be neat and clean. Everything doesn't need to go the way I want it to or the way I think it should go. <br /><br />Anyway, I know there are other ways she has helped me to change as well, but I think I will leave it at that, for now. I want to revisit this thought next year, and in five years again to see what I can add to this.<br /><br />Thanks for an awesome post!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18285758599870712600noreply@blogger.com
