Exactly 10 years ago, I committed to a relationship with a guy whom, to me, I felt most comfortable with. Just like in any courtship, there were those
kilig moments, surprises that left me speechless and revelations that more and more tell me that
he could be the one. I guess, of all the things that I like most about him is that we get along really well. Examples would be having similar childhood memories, sharing a similar set of interests and most especially having the same intense love for food. More than being with someone I'm romantically linked to, I found a
best friend. He's the kind of person whom I really look forward to spending every single day with. Thus, from that day forward, we instantly became inseparable. As a friend has pointed out, we're our own
love team most popularly known as --
Paul & Fran.

On that fateful night when I said "yes" to Paul's "will you be my girlfriend" proposal, I prayed for one thing. All I wanted was for him to be
the one for me. I never asked for a perfect man as that would be boring. Also, I know that I will never be the perfect woman either. Simply, I just want
us to be perfect for each other which includes all our flaws, boo boos and quirks.

Looking back at all those 10 years, I can't believe really how time flew by so fast. I can still vividly remember all the big milestones that we've celebrated in our lives -- our first monthsary, our anniversaries, my graduation, his graduation, our career and business achievements, his proposal, our wedding day and the list can go on and on.
Our journey has just begun and I'm pretty sure we will continue to celebrate more milestones in the coming years and decades to come. I can't wait!
Happy 10 years to us, Paul! I ♥ You!
