We are both nurses, we met in college and we both went to work at the same hospital. We were friends and roommates in college and we live together now. After all these years, college and now we have decided to get married. The jewelry store in our mall opened and we bought our rings, I asked a friend who takes nice pictures to take some photos for an announcement, we got our license online from the county and we are scheduled for Thursday at 11:00 a.m.

We are thirty five, we are curiously both named Anne, I will give up my maiden name, which will only add to the confusion but we will both have the same last name.

The catch is that we are not lovers, we are close but not lovers. We don't look for nor care for male companionship, fathers and brothers fill that need for us. After we get married we will share a room and share a bed, we will live as married, if hands wander or kisses become more intimate then kisses become more intimate. We are not going to stop any intimacy, but we are not going to push it either.

We met 17 years ago and have lived together for 16 if those years, I have folded her underwear and she has folded mine. It's time our underwear lived in the same drawer.

We will sign ourselves as lesbian, however we have held ourselves as straight our entire lives.
