*laughs* Actually, more than a few people in my family are years apart (7, 10, all kinds of stuff) but it's harder when you're both women. Which makes it odd that I can be fairly excited about this, for all that it's more of a promise than an actual engagement, online, but not to my family. Or to all that many of the people I know, actually.
I mean, I'm an age where getting engagement or even talking about is seen as reasonable and probably even a good idea (God forbid I should end up an old single Cat Lady or something.), but she's not. Which makes me, on occasion feel a little sketchy. People tend to look at youth and decide that it makes people incapable of knowing what they want in life, but knowing that you want a relationship like ours warrants even more skepticism.
Eh heh. Sorry for the brain spew. *sheepish head rub* ^^;
