How I did it
How to be in control of my life
It took me
307 months
It made me
proud of myself.

How I did it: The ultimate act of taking control of my life was moving out of my mother's home. Consequently, I moved to a province where I literally knew a single person, my partner. Building your life from its foundations is exhilarating, terrifying, romantic, impractical, and myriad other things. It's a crash course in life, that's for sure.  Read how I did it…

How to have a threesome
It took me
2 months
It made me
feel truly loved.

How I did it: Much cajoling, hinting, innuendo, teasing... etc. We used the occasion of his imminent departure (to another province for an indeterminate period of time) to celebrate with sex.
