About

When we first started dating, we were 20 and I didn't even have a proper job. Working part-time, we had no money, so we mostly lived on cheap meals. We'd lounge around until evening, just binge-watching movies. In the middle of the night, we'd head to the convenience store in our loungewear and eat ice cream in the parking lot. We'd go to cheap izakayas, then buy more alcohol at the convenience store to keep drinking at home. "I want to live in a bigger house." "Maybe I want my own room." "Do you think we'll stop talking as much? lol" "No way, not us. lol" That's what we said. That's what you told me. It's been 8 years since we started dating. We're both so busy with work that we haven't had a real conversation. Our meal times are usually all over the place, so we often eat separately. We used to message each other all the time, but lately, it's only the bare minimum. We got our own rooms and moved into a big house. But is it selfish of me to think that we were happier back then?
