Stilghar Sends Me an Update on Their Life

8/28/2025

This is not so much a question as an update to an update, and a sign for others to not give up hope.

Fifteen years ago, I left a relationship that was highly toxic and borderline abusive. I resolved to enjoy myself in all sorts of ways, and I wrote asking if this was normal or if I was overreacting.

Not long after that, the Universe dropped a Dragon in my lap. He is the best thing that has ever happened to me.

We are still going strong nearly twelve years on. We now live together, with two other roommates, in an almost frighteningly harmonious arrangement. It helps that we're all mature, sane adults with similar interests, and the other two are a couple who have been together even longer than I and my Dragon.

It's not perfect, it takes work from all of us in concert, but it is a comfortable and equitable arrangement for all of us.

Never say never, and don't stress out if you don't find The One©. Life's what happens while you're busy making other plans.
