I'm very blessed.
My girl isn't into pinball to the same degree as I am, but she enjoys playing and knows when she's playing well and gets pissed when she loses a ball she shouldn't have. That to me defines a player. We seek out pins in the wild together and she's gone to a few shows with me.
She shares in some of my hobbies and I share in some of hers. We also have our own things that are ours alone.
I love her for who she is and she loves me as I am.
It's not easy to find and a lot of time was wasted along the way, but I found it.
Life is short, settle for nothing less.
