10 Questions For My Husband Of 10 Years To See Just How Well He Knows Me

We were high school sweethearts. We are absolutely a couple who has "done life" together. We moved in together when we were 18, we got engaged when we were 19, and married when we were 20. We sat in infertility clinics together, we've cried together in emergency rooms after miscarriages, we've sat at our dining room table and filled out adoption paperwork together.

We JUST celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary, three apartments, two townhomes, two houses, three dogs, two cats, and two VERY adorable boys later and his face is still the face I wanna slam cake into! So, I decided to ask him 10 questions about me to see just how well he knows me. Here's what happened.

1. What's my favorite food?

Mike's Answer: "Cereal."

I don't even know how to respond to this one. I would have said pancakes but he's right, I do eat an awful lot of cereal!

2. What's one food I hate?

Mike's Answer: "I don't know."

I asked him to at least GUESS, he responded: Liver and fried onions

I can't make this up… as disgusting as THAT sounds, summer sausage is what comes to my mind. It stinks… I'm not a fan.

3. What's one cause I really care about?

Mike's Answer: "ANOTHER I don't know."

I again asked him to guess: Adoption

This is VERY accurate, both of our boys are adopted, although my first thought was suicide prevention. Both are VERY near and dear to my heart.

4. Where was I born?

Mike's Answer: "California."

I took this a little further and followed up with "What town" he was right! Redding, California baby!

5. What's my favorite thing about you?

Mike's Answer: "Nothing, you can't stand me."

My husband can be a real sarcastic dick sometimes. AND that's why I love him. He makes me smile and laugh ALL the time.

6. What is my dream job?

Mike's Answer: "I don't know."

This is right :) I really don't know!

7. What's my favorite color?

Mike's Answer: "All of them."

See… that sarcasm is never dead folks. Never dead. Pink would have been the correct answer.

8. What's one thing I'm really bad at?

Mike's Answer: "Cleaning."

Yup. He nailed that one... sadly!

9. What's one thing I'm really good at?

Mike's Answer: "I don't know, LOTS."

Thanks, babe! So glad you have so much faith in my abilities to do all of the things... except clean :) I would have said something simple like doing my nails.

10. What is my biggest insecurity?

Mike's Answer: "I don't know."... again.

Really, this is correct. Not because he or I couldn't think of any but I have so many we weren't sure which one bothers me most.

CONCLUSION: 6/10 correct! Not surprised at all, Mike knows me pretty well. The ones he got wrong surprised me mostly because they felt so simple… really, my favorite food and color? Really, babe!? Writing this article really showed me that when that love is real, so many thing are trivial and they love you anyway because you are you.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
