I married my best friend, despite the fact he was “uncool” by society standards

He was poor, didn’t have any career perspectives and dressed like a nerd.

But the day I chose him I chose MYSELF. I believed in him and I believed in us.

6 years later I couldn’t be happier.

He makes me laugh every day, so much my stomach hurts. He is so tender and loving I sometimes think I married a labradour instead of a human. He is understanding, kind, honest, brave, attractive, super clever and just… my best friend.

We have SO much fun no matter what we’re doing: drawing, cooking, walking, it’s like all I have ever wanted, all I dreamt of! We are so so in love after more than 10 years of knowing each other.

We moved to Thailand and now run a business together, we live in wonderful house near the sea with all year green garden and have 5 cats. We have all we need and more in terms of finances.

I think I just got what I deserved for following my own intuition and not giving a f about the society’s standards: choosing a comical guy who would have been considered by many as “nothing more than a friend”.

My mum had the same story, when she started dating my dad who had literally one pair of boots for all seasons, her “friends” asked her: “aren’t you embarrassed to be with him?”. After my dad got pretty wealthy the same “friends” told her: “You don’t deserve him, why has he even chosen YOU?” Lol. Like maybe because she chose HIM as a PERSON and he did the same?

P.S. I am not a native speaker, but I decided not to use AI to help me with the text, because otherwise people start assuming that it wasn’t written by a real person, so there may be some inaccuracies.
