I sometimes think about how other people have less happy relationships than mine, and that makes me sad for them

I know, right!?

I'm pretty introverted, and one thing I found surprising is that time with my wife counts as "alone time" for that =)

She charges your battery - that's so sweet. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Same!

One of my fears dating was that id run out of social energy and she'd realize i was really boring. A few years in our relationship, I told her. And she said she thought SHE was boring me, because she never had anything to really say.

Now it's been more than a decade and there's no social battery being drained with her, and vice versa. We charge each other up!
