Me and my fiance have been together since February 1st 2008 (friends for about six months prior to that, met her for the first time in January 2007 when she turned up to one of our Skyline club meets with her new R32 GTS coupe) and i popped the question on September 18th last year.
Obviously we both have a love of Nissan Skylines (she owns an R32 GTS coupe, i own an R32 GTS coupe and R32 GTS-4 sedan), we also both love our video games (she's quite into war games like Call of Duty, Battlefield etc and driving games like NFS, GT, Grand Theft Auto and so on), both love cats, both love making up weird names (the name for my forum actually came about from two words we made up - she made up Crudbubbles and i made up Mooble).
Pretty much never have had a 'real' argument, we've had a handful (literally) of disagreements but never yell at each other - just the way i like it (i really hate arguing).
As far as money goes, we have a joint account plus also our own seperate ones - theres no case of 'all your money belongs to me' type thing that i've seen in some of my youngest brothers and Dad's past girlfriends.
Neither of us is 'the boss' (although we always joke that she's the boss since she's the female). She cooks, i sometimes do. I do the dishes, she sometimes does. I do most of the cleaning around the house, she does when she gets time.
She's earning more money and working less hours than me too!
We also do some things seperately. She plays soccer, futsal and BMX (used to play touch rugby too) and goes to her motorbike club meetings, track days etc. I sometimes go too but don't own a bike so can't go for rides.
But yeah - she's pretty much as close to my dream girl as its ever likely to be.

) and we both take part in each others' passions. We're both responsible and ambitious while having similar life goals (lots of travelling and a family). We find ways to spend our time together by doing things we both enjoy (travel, outdoors activities, gym), while saving the things that the other might not like for when we have time to ourselves. For me that might be video games, sports, drinking with my guy friends, etc. and for her that might be her girly wedding TV shows, shopping (I hate the mall), and so on. That way we don't force the other to do something they might not like. Plus, it helps keep your relationship from being a drag on your friends.
