Beautifully told story!

Awwww. You're such a sweet little romantic. Beautiful and heartbreaking - wonderful job!

Romantic, sweet, and at times, painful. Everything that a good love story needs. I hope to read more of your work. :)

Aw, this was really sweet. Tough subject...after 20 yrs, is one drunken night worth throwing it all away? Some say yes, some no...both have valid arguments. Thanks for showing a lesser spoken of side.

Hey Matt. Its been a while since I've read one of your stories. I want to say you have come leaps and bounds and I truly enjoyed this story. Thank you for sharing

So sweet. Don't know the story about the being mad and cheating, but it sounds as is these two have weathered many years together. Together as one. Infidelity is a hard pin to swallow. It takes much forgiveness and love to overcome such a indiscretion. Trust, once broken, isn't always easy to rebuild. Sounds like that is what these two want more than anything, and they are willing to move forward. One question, in 20 years, why not a proposal sooner? Society views? Only the best of wishes for their future. Would love to see a futuretake.

Hmm...based on personal experience?

oh this story hit very close to home. thank you for sharing matt *sniffles*

To be honest, I was expecting something more, um, jovial as a birthday present. You surprised me, Matt.
Still, I love it because of the way you can tell a story, always giving food for thought.
Thank you for sharing.

Matt, as always you are a wonderful writer. Heart breaking. Emmett cheated on Seth in their home, in their bed. I feel once you break the ultimate trust, if it isn't over then, it's only a matter of time.

I can't believe that Seth said yes.
You know I don't like cheaters. But I guess we are all different.
I wish them luck but so wouldn't be me saying yes.
Great story Matt as always you know how to hold a reader :)
Thanks for sharing

That was sad but th eending was lovely and hopeful for the future. I hope your special guy enjoys his present.

Oh so romantic and heart breaking at the same time you write angst so well I love the part with the Christmas jumper so funny.
