What has been the best thing that has happened to you so far?
Either by choice or sheer luck. What is something that has happened to you that made your life actively better?
(So far) For me it has been me finally able to move out of my parents home.

Being the son of the city major in a kind of big and well known Mexico city.
Lennnny, 
I had a zit on my armpit that made an audible pop, my soul still shivers from that one. Also marrying my husband.
jubilationtcornpone, That’s a long list but here’s a few things.
- Going to therapy.
- Being willing to forgive and make peace with my dad.
- Seeking medical treatment for my ADHD.
- Getting a septoplasty. (Who knew being able to breathe through you nose was so great.)
- Divorcing my first wife, who is a truly awful person.
- Saying yes to a date with my (now) wife, who is an awesome person.
- Learning to love myself just the way I am.
- Taking an active role in managing my finances.
berryjam, I decided to start taking my health seriously this year.
A_Random_Idiot, Nothing.
Life has been on a slow, downward slide since I was a teenager.
Presi300, 
Moving out of the province… Yeah, I fcking hate living in the big city but the people I’ve met and the friends I’ve made more than make up for it.
DuckOverload, (edited ) The woman I loved decided to give it a go. 13 years later, we’re a super happy family.
PS: also, being bi and resisting the social urge to “be true to myself” and go gay, assuming the straight part was obviously bullshit.
DogWater, Meeting my fiance by miles. It isn’t even a contest.
A distant second, which is still miles above anything else below it on the list, is buying a good house in a cheap (bad) neighborhood at 3.1% interest 30 yr fixed.
Ubettawerk, Living as an openly gay man. It felt like I was finally able to breathe
captainlezbian, Getting to fall in love with my wife
Tyfud, Meeting my current wife through some mutual friends. Changed my life for the better. Can’t imagine life without her in it anymore.
She makes me want to be a better person.
mojofrododojo, Love finding me. I’m not particularly feely and didn’t have examples of loving couples growing up. Did not see that coming, wasn’t on the horizon at all. Got lucky.
jcrabapple, 
Working from home full time.
Nikki, being born in a place where i am not genocided for being myself (yet)
