Well, what can I say? Everyone else has said everything I wanted to, and better than I would have! But I couldn’t just read all this, and not post something. So, congratulations and best of luck! At least if you’re on the east coast, if I ever make it to a dopefest, I have some hope of meeting you in person! ---

There are times when two people just seem so **right** for each other that it just feels preordained. Congratulations to both of you, and best wishes for a wonderful new life together. ---

I don’t know how I missed this thread when it came out, but… First and foremost, (even though I’ve told you this ten million times before), I’m so incredibly happy for both of you. Having seen the two of you together on more than one occassion, the light you give off is blinding. You’re good for each other and good TO each other, and that’s what really matters. Secondly, as Dave said earlier, thank you for your trust in me before this. It’s been a hard secret to keep, because I’ve been so happy for you. Now I can start singing from my balcony, “Cristi and Patrick are in loo-oove! Cristi and Patrick are in loo-oove!” (9th floor means tomatoes won’t reach me there!) Thirdly… EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! _tackles Cristi and hugs her for hours, then pounces on Patrick and does the same to him_ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/coming-out/164422.md?page=5)
