It's a strange feeling for me to have a relationship with a woman who accepts me for who and what I am. Do we attach labels to our relationship? No. But it is very interesting to see us addressed as two women, and not see RQS flinch when this is done. I am very lucky to have this woman in my life - and I know it.
Like most couples, date nights for us are both nothing special to the world, and everything special for us. These are our nights to connect with each other, whether I am presenting as Marian or as Mario. To me, it is even more special to me when RQS says that we should go out as two women. When we do so, we do not show as much PDA as we usually might. But then, we are usually in Westchester at these times.
It is not an uncommon things to see same sex couples out in the world these days. When RQS and I were on our last cruise together, the couple in the next cabin were likely a same sex couple. This is a good thing for us and our future plans. Yet, I must always remember that RQS wants a relationship with Mario as well. So, I try to make sure that Mario is always there for her when expected and wanted.

I wonder what it will be like for us when we go on a cruise with me presenting as Marian for the entire cruise. Will RQS be comfortable spending an entire week (or more) with me in Marian mode? What about PDAs? Will a cruise be a 7 night date for us? Only time will tell.
