What Made You Choose Your Partner?

[Electric Amish]

The biggest factor was her personality and how alike we are.

Don't get me wrong, she's beautiful but, for some reason, in high school there were all these girls I thought were pretty, but I would rarely talk to them and never admit that I liked them or would like to date them. Then I met my wife in a couple of classes we had together and we started as friends. Talkling, casual banter and joking....then my chance came.

Silence of the Lambs came out to theaters and her current boyfriend wouldn't take her to see it. I struck with the lightning speed of a mongoose and called and asked her out that night....the rest, I'm happy to say, is history.

She's down-to-earth and surprisingly "un-female" in her attitudes and opinions.

Oh, and well, the SEX is mind blowing!

could not have said it better myself. Number one thing is that they (him/her) take you for you. After that everything else is just a plus-

we have similar values & interests, except for LifeTime TV.

The one I chose I guess it was because, a) nice to be around; 2) looks; iii) friendly

I must have found the wrong mix somewhere along the line, though, and hit the 'evil' button. Glad that's over But now I have to start over

I like to think of it as fate... although I don't usually believe in that kind of thing.

She was the first girl that I actually put effort into courting. With previous girls I just let things follow whatever path, but with my wife I knew I had something special, something that I wanted to hold on to.

She is the only person in the world that I can open up to emotionally. I can comfortably be myself around her.

What she sees in me still puzzles me, though...

I can't really name one thing in particular because it wasn't just one thing. There were a whole lot of things I was looking for and she has them! After being friends for a good while, things just kinda clicked and viola! Next thing I knew we were working on moving in together. What else can I say?

Awwwww! *Smootchies*

I met her at my best friend's wedding. I was the best man, incidentally.

A couple people at the reception came up to tell me that she thought I was cute, so I went over to talk to her. Ended up being the best thing I ever did. I don't see any reason why we won't be spending the rest of our lives together. It's been 8 months as of today that we've been together, actually.

Just thank God and don't remind her of this.

Her sis introduced us, we didn't talk much the night we met because we watched a movie at her house with her sis and my friend. We met up at a bar a couple weeks later and talked a little and hit it off. Been together for almost 3 months now, and are great together.

It started out with looks(doesn't every relationship?), and we like to do the same things. She just compliments me so well, and I hate every minute we're apart. She's not the type of girl I used to date, but thank GOD she's not. It's tough to explain exactly what made me decide her.

Haven't found out how sexually compatible we are yet. I'm nervous about it complicating the relationship.

Looks and shared interests we just match very good. Love at first sight

She has large boobs.
The personality isnt bad either.
LOL

We didn't chose, it just happened.

We met, and less than 24 hours later, we were dating.

We were really good friends for a little over a year and I... how to say this... I've always found her attractive, but until a few weeks before we started going out I wasn't attracted to her. i.e. She was a really great platonic friend that I thought was really good looking but I never wanted to develop a romantic relationship. Eventually, I came to the realization that I had grown to like her as more than a friend. Fortunately, she felt the same way, and the rest as they say, was history.

Edit: And of course, she accepts me for the huge mess of a person I am. I don't know how many people out there could put up with my goofiness sometimes.

There were some really nice answers in this thread,love is meant for the young,glad to see so many of you enjoying it

I met her at my church one sunday. i had to leave fast so i just got her email address, i came to find out after writing her that she lived in Georgia! (i live in ohio) we kept writing each other and saw each other when she came up to see her grandparents and we started dating. It was in high school and we dated for 3 years. We were so close but we didn't talk enough. after we graduated we went to different colleges and things fell apart. we were so happy together too, she knew me, and still knows me more than my own mother does. I just didn't have my stuff together and she got away from me. I'll never forgive myself for letting her get away. :brokenheart:

Sure YOU'RE happy... but what about the poor dude you stole her from ? Half jokingly... what if that happened to you?

 

[iwearnosox]

Beer. And she's really hot, and cute.

You wouldn't return my calls and I got lonely.

her ass

 

[MercenaryForHire]

What? You mean we have a choice?

My mind just kinda went to mush when I started talking to her, and I couldn't do anything other than fall hopelessly in love with her.

We complement each other - literally and figuratively. She's very nice-looking, but it was her intelligence, un-neuroticness, sexyness and sense of fun that hooked me.

Also that she wasn't manipulative and demanding like a lot of other women I'd been with.

We've been together for 11 years, married for five. Getting married didn't change our relationship in the slightest.

I think the fact that we'd both come from disasterous relationships helped us value each other more.

I thought you reserved the "lightning mongoose-speed" only for the bedroom?
