if you knew my wife you'd understand why i was smitten with her. shoot, i knew within 5 minutes of laying eyes on her for the first time, i would marry her. before i even asked her out on our first date, i told my brother that she was the girl i would marry. (btw, she was a senior in college and i was a grad student).

she is ALL class.

it's amazing that she felt the same way about me from the moment she first saw me also.

You know, I didnt really know Kristin was the one until we were together for almost 2 years. But it was evident to me that spending life w/o her seemed.....well lonely. I had pressure from friends and family to pop the big question. Kristin had all the right attributes that I need in a woman:

- Incredibily intelligent.
- Fun as hell.
- Thought on her own, and didnt just agree with me to avoid an arguement or to be submissive.
- Wanted her own career.
- Understood that I was an avid gamer and needed time for it. she is actually a gamer as well. YAY!
- Open minded.
- classy.
Bonus Feature: shes HOT!

Anyways...

I know it sounds odd, but it took a major argument to kind of shake things up for me (and her perhaps). It was an agrument about "nothing" (arnt they usually), but it was heated and some things had been building up and, well, it all came out. It was a pivitol point in our relationship. I wanted to leave her. But after telling her I think I might need a few days to myself to think things over, I suddenly realized that I was about to make a horrible mistake.

....I proposed 2 months later (had to save up for the ring) on valentines day.

....ugh, I don't even know if I answered you question...by does that make any sense?

I don't know if people just always think some one they have the hots for is 'the one' to begin with, and then forget it when things don't go right...or if its actually true. But I know a few hours after I met my girl, I could already see myself marrying her.

It is impossible to quantify this into a "scientific" type answer. Suffice to say that if you have doubts and often question (in your mind) if she is the one - then she isn't.

I know this sounds corny, but you will just know. I could never understand or accept that answer until I met my wife and it happened to me. Ironically, It happened to me after i stopped "actively looking" for someone and dating seriously. I had become so frustrated with trying to find a "soul-mate" that I went on a blind date with ZERO expectations and just to have a good time "for the heck of it". Well...........that fateful date has turned into the love of my life and a wonderful marriage of 9 years!!

Keep a positive attitude, be yourself, be patient, and don't try to force the
issue - you'll find her! :) ;)

We were friend for about 12 months and things were purely platonic. I was stuck in Germany on September 11, 2001 so I had a lot of time to think about my family and friends back home in the States. I was actually a bit surprised to find my thoughts keep coming back to her. Anyway, I finally made it home and we just kept hanging out like we always had but my feelings had definitely begun to change. A few weeks later, in the first week or so of October, it became apparent that she felt the same way about me. Badda bing, badda boom, now we're engaged. I know that some of the best romantic relationships come out of friendships but that they are also pretty high risk, but for some reason we never experienced any awkwardness in the transition from being friends to being romantic partners. We already knew and trusted each other, and somehow the transition was effortless.

It just happens.
When I met my wife, I was a jerk to women. I didnt want a relationship with anyone, I screwed around with this one chick just because she had big knockers, she wanted a relationship, I didnt, I told her to go away, she cried and I didnt care. At that point I had been screwed over several times and felt it was my mission to do the same. Of course, then my lady came along. We had a common feel about the opposite sex except she just hated men, and bonded over that. Soon later we were dating. I knew within a month of meeting her that I was gonna be with her forever.

There's no "how". You know it or you don't.

It was easy, she's my sister. I was always told to keep it in the family, so I did! :disgust::Q;):D
