老爸老妈浪漫史吧 关注：83,858贴子：706,473
I’ve always known I was going to have a monogamous relationship, raise children, and be happy in love. It was the one thing in life that I never doubted for a second.I was in another relationship when I met Neil and was doing the long-distance, New York–to-L.A. thing. It was sort of on the rocks. Long distance is so hard. I was performing in the Sam Mendes version of Gypsy on Broadway when I ran into Neil on the street. He was doing the Mendes version of Cabaret at the time, and I was with a friend who knew him pretty well. I wasn’t a big Doogie Howser fan -- I had probably seen it once or twice when I was growing up -- so I gave him a, “Hey, what’s up, nice to meet you,” and that was really it. I thought it would be nice to know him, but I didn’t think in a million years I’d start dating him.
我一直觉得自己有着传统婚姻观念的人--夫妻二人一起生活、抚养孩子，沉浸于爱情之中；这也是我生活中从未怀疑过的事。
想想那时我正和别人维持着异地恋，关系已然岌岌可危（异地恋真的很难维持）。我碰巧在街上遇到Neil，当时我正在百老汇Shubert剧院表演Sam Mendes 导演的音乐剧《玫瑰舞后Gypsy》而Neil恰好也在同一个导演的另一部音乐剧《酒店/歌厅Cabaret》里担任主角。
说实话，我不能算是《天才小医生》的粉丝，小时候也就看过一两集。所以，我对他说的第一句话就是淡淡地“嗨~你好~很高兴遇到你！”我真没说什么特别的，只是觉得能认识个电视明星挺好的。而我完全没有想到-做梦都不敢想的--我可以和他约会~~

The first three years was our honeymoon period. Then you settle into the relationship, and it morphs into just living, breathing.
最初的3年是我们的蜜月时期；然后关系稳定下来，在不知不觉中互相适应，逐渐变成了好像呼吸--这种生命中不可缺少的部分。
It becomes more comfortable, but it becomes a necessity -- something you can’t give up, like an addict.
这变得越来越舒适，越来越难以自拔，就好像上瘾了一样--根本无法放弃。
I basically have diarrhea mouth -- I am brutally honest to the point of being a negative thing. Now I think more before I speak.
好吧，我这个人太直接了、不会拐弯抹角，总是诚实的说出自己的看法；这有时真的很伤人。但现在在说话之前我一定会仔细思量。

Even on that first date, we talked about kids. If he hadn’t wanted kids, I don’t think we’d be together.
即使是我们第一次约会，我们也谈到了孩子。如果他不想要孩子，也许我们也不会在一起。
I always thought that family was the most important thing in life, and no matter what I do, whether being a chef or an actor or a dancer, being a dad is what I do best.
我一直觉得家庭是生命中最重要的事，无论我做什么：不管是厨师、演员还是舞者；其实当爸爸才是我最擅长的~
I am the maternal one in the relationship. 【注意：这句话是David写的……so~~~】
在感情里，我是母性的一方
For the first year, I didn’t miss a nighttime or morning with them. I think it’s important to have other lives and feed your relationship, but it’s also important that your children are raised by you.
扮演着母亲的角色，从早到晚陪着孩子们，不能错过他们成长的任何一个瞬间。我觉得别样的生活方式和充盈你们的感情是很重要的，但更重要的是你的孩子们是你亲手抚养大的。
We named Gideon after an artist we collect, Gideon Rubin, and Harper after Harper Lee. To Kill a Mockingbird is one of our favorite books.
我们给儿子取名Gideon，是因为我们喜爱收藏艺术家Gideon Rubin的画作；以我们最喜欢的书《杀死一只知更鸟》的作者 Harper Lee来命名我们的女儿Harper 。

I don’t want people to think we’re a perfect couple. Nothing’s perfect.
我不想让大家觉得我们是完美的一对。任何事情都没有绝对的完美
A relationship is work and it changes. And you go with the changes.
感情最重要的就是经营与改变，然后顺应这种改变。
It’s more good times than bad times, but it’s not always good. You have to overcome those issues and move on.
一段感情确实有甜蜜、有无奈，明亮多于晦暗，但却不是永远阳光明媚。你必须去克服然后继续生活
We have a really great recipe for a wonderful relationship, but we don’t want to be the poster boys for gay relationships.
我们确实有很多经营感情幸福快乐的秘诀，但是我们不想成为模范夫夫的模型，好像同性模范的宣传海报一样，标榜幸福的同Gay伴侣……
We’re not trying to pretend that we are perfect. We’re just trying -- in a good, positive, loving way -- to live our lives.
我们也不是卖力假装我们很好很完美。我们只是努力用积极健康、相亲相爱的方式生活~~
