Alena also added that, “he includes (her) in everything – from his friend gatherings to the sports that he plays. He works hard so that he can buy me fancier dinners and desserts.”

“He’s also supportive of everything I do and every little step I take. Of course, he also has his own shortcomings but who doesn’t, right?”
