      Technically, I feel that if he got the "Favorite Author" one on the wrong Brandon Sanderson book, he still should have got the point, even if it means that the "Favorite Book of Last Year" one would have been wrong. I mean, it's still correct, he would have just killed one bird with two stones.

    Merphy, appreciate this man hugely. He just spent 15 minutes or more (hard to tell exactly how long, since you fast forwarded a few times) exploring your mind with you, and seemed like he would've been happy staying there as long as you wanted. That's huge, and--i bet--fairly uncommon even among life partners. Hold him tight and cherish him, as he clearly does you.
    p.s. You're a cute couple, wish you both a life of joy.

    This was such a fun video. I like that you were both sure he would do really well.
    My boyfriend wouldn't, but then again I don't think I have definite/strong answers for most of these questions.
