My wife and I were close friends for almost eight years before we started dating, and a couple for three and a half before we got married.<\/p>\n<p>A good partnership, romantic or otherwise, makes both people better off than they would be by themselves. I won&#8217;t speak for my wife, but I can say this is definitely true for me.<\/p>\n<p>As anyone who knows me personally will attest, I have plenty of flaws. I talk too much. I often lack social graces. My head is in the clouds and the future, and I often miss the here-and-now. Even since the early days of our friendship, I&#8217;ve been grateful to have someone to turn to for advice and support to overcome these weaknesses. In this sense, our relationship has pushed me to be a better person much more than any other step I had undertaken on my own.<\/p>\n<p>For this, and so many things, I&#8217;m incredibly grateful. I&#8217;m not certain where life will lead, but I&#8217;m happy that it will be together.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scotthyoung.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Wedding-Photo.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7677\" src=\"https:\/\/www.scotthyoung.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Wedding-Photo-300x271.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.scotthyoung.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Wedding-Photo-300x271.png 300w, https:\/\/www.scotthyoung.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Wedding-Photo-768x693.png 768w, https:\/\/www.scotthyoung.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Wedding-Photo.png 851w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On May 26th, I married my best friend and the love of my life, Zorica.
