We took it to the extreme. Our first date was a trip to another country with backpacks, a small tent, a bag of rice and one of those small gas stove. She cursed at me and the world on our first hiking trip, while sweating like a horse. She was in a terrible form and do not enjoy hiking trips.

We had to shower in the lakes, and they were cold AF, so.. I did not present myself from my best side..

We also nearly died. But, we've been together for 10+ years now.

We stress tested the shit out of our relationship on that trip.

After our near death experience, we settled somewhere nice, but during that night we were hit by an hurricane and my tent broke, forcing me to stay up all night, holding it together, while she slept. It was a special date.

For a first date she willingly followed someone out of the country and into the wilderness‽ It sounds like it worked out well in the end but was she trying to end up as a missing person?

yeah. But, we had known each other since we were 16, but never dated before.

“Dave was so nice, he was a 6 time widower and loved Freeform hiking. we’d always joke that Susan should stay close or else she’d become number 7. Nobody could have known what he was capable of.”

Hey, I think my wife would have been the murderer and not me.

You two sound like a couple of fuckin maniacs, thanks for taking each other off the market for the rest of us!

[-] TwoTiredMice@feddit.dk 9 points 1 week ago

We are not normal, and don't strive to be it either. We also don't think any of us could find another partner, so we will most likely be off the market forever. You are welcome.

Holy shit maniacs. My wifes first time meeting my family we went to meet them at a state park campsite and the cabin didnt have room for us. We slept cuddled up freezing on two camp chairs facing each other. She was a trooper and we've been married 16 years tomorrow...

Happy anniversary and I hope the same person was not on logistics for any family gatherings after that

Bro is still holding the marriage together like the tattered tent

[-] Malica@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 week ago

That sounds so memorable. I'd rather have that than any "perfect" date.

Thanks. It was a really awesome trip, and we just got really close really early on, and we just knew at point, that we liked each other a lot. And we have some really funny and great memories from 6 days in the "wilderness".
