I only met my wife twice before we decided to start dating. The first time was at a group wine tasting, I arrived late, and the only open seat happened to be next to her. The second time was a month later, the group arranged to meet for tea. That day, I drank a lot and kepting asking her for refills, which meant that we also grazed hands a lot. We spent the whole day together. I called her in the middle of the night, and ask her if she wanted to be my girlfriend. She said yes, we got together. After five months, we went to register as partners.

It was only after being with my wife that I decided to officially come out to my friends. That feeling was like being truly seen for the first time and confronting who I was.
