I don't know of a ton of blind date success stories, but I do know of one, and now you do too. This is just the beginning of me giving relationship advice so I figured I should introduce our love story. You deserve to be someone's first choice, best friend, and the best part of their day. Don't think you'll get some type of award for staying even if it means sacrificing your happiness. You only get one life, so make sure the person you choose loves hard, not makes life hard.
