    To me the two most important things I would want to say to you are...

    1) If he is the man that you want to be with and can't imagine anyone else as your SO (be it BF, FI, H, whatever) then you have to chillax a bit and just see where life takes you.  There is a saying something to the effect of  "We make plans, and God laughs"...not sure of your religious beliefs, but this is so true.  Life has it's way of working out the way it should, when it should.

    2) I don't think that it is necessary for a couple to have the same views about finances.  Two people who are similar may have an easier go of things right off the bat, but I know a lot of couples where one is a spender and the other a saver...they have a plan or budget, and they compromise and understand that the other person isn't wrong, just different.  If two people who are rational and willing to work together they can come up with a plan that is suitable for both, where neither feels like they don't matter.  Fore example: a spender can show a saver how it's okay to have a little fun, spend a little more here or there and still save plenty and be responsible.  A saver can show a spender that saving, investing in the future is important if you want to be able to have and do nice things later in life as well as now.

    Is Tucker your hedgehog?  If so, do you like having one as a pet?

    Tucker is Liv's cat.  So, Liv's cat (Tucker) and Liv's hedgehog (Earl) play together.  :)

    Gotcha.  That's adorable.  At first I thought Tucker might be a toddler.
