Finally I agreed and went on a date with him to see Indiana jones (what?!) and had the most fun day. Now I couldn't imagine my life without him. It's so crazy how the perfect match can walk right in even if we try to push it away. Love this!

When I first met my boyfriend, it was him who was first interested in me. I had seen him around, but never considered him to be very much my "type" or even gave it much thought until we had the opportunity to talk face to face, when he offered to give me a lift home one night. I'm so glad he did this, because we figured out we had SO much in common, and connected almost immediately. By the time he dropped me off at my home and I got out of the car, I couldn't stop thinking about him! Nothing's changed today, that was almost 2 years ago now. I'm SO glad I didn't write him off immediately before having the chance to connect on a deeper level! <br />thanks for sharing!<br />xo<br />Alex<br />www.sincerely-alex.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18417257042727480796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6578996577431253756.post-40819655055260847792016-02-24T14:54:32.193-06:002016-02-24T14:54:32.193-06:00This is precious :) That's all.This is precious :) That's all.Erin LFFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07769034488164372047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6578996577431253756.post-41389286797415883842016-02-24T14:42:49.634-06:002016-02-24T14:42:49.634-06:00This is so true!

One of my good friends had a very similar situation, where the guy she married is actually and inch shorter than her (she's 5'11, not hard to be) and she had a hard time with it until she realized he was literally everything she wanted in a man and she wasn't going let something as silly as height proven there from a lifetime of love.

I think it's awesome how you two ...I love this! I think it's awesome how you two met! There is something to be said about finding a connection on a mental, and emotional level vs. just looks alone at first. I am all about first impressions and physical attraction but in the end... as time goes on... you have to have SO MUCH MORE to have a successful union! My husband and I met on Myspace.com - randomly... I was bored one night doing a search just for the heck of it... I think I put in an age group of men or woman - you know half the fun back then was reading people's profiles and looking through photos of strangers... his caught my eye IMMEDIATELY... SUPER attractive profile pic, and his screenname was AC/DC. SOLD, let's dig deeper into this profile. He seemed very cool, his friends left great comments on his page, so many sweet notes about him being cool, and a gentleman, seeing jokes between him and friends, he just seemed like himself... not the BEST VERSION, just "This is who I am... with a little flare take it or leave it" Well I had to leave it... he wasn't single and neither was I... so instead... I simply sent a friendly note, about his music taste and that it was cool... and a small joke. He then replied back and added me... we spoke as pals for about 7 months - meanwhile crap with my ex was crumbling... 3-4 months past and our relationship was heading south very fast... and I knew in my heart... it was over. I was thinking more about a dude I never met in person... than a guy I had dated for 6 years... (long distance and together in the same location, it didn't work for us)... we broke up... and I guess it was about 2 months or more later... I finally met my hubby in person. Fireworks, great times, I had found my match... The night I met him, I had said to my friend... "I'm going to marry him one day." I NEVER said that - my bestie even commented about this in her maid of honor speech at our wedding. I was fully in love with him mind, body and soul from the first few months I Just didn't realize it. He was so different from most guys I dated too - he had the looks, but I guess my lack of self confidence had me thinking he'd never want me... it was TOO good... something had to go wrong... well it's over 10 years later... we got married 4 years ago (5 this October) and I've never been happier... it's funny what you find when you're only looking for a companion to have fun with... you always find SO much more, if you play your cards right and keep a level head! I am so happy for you and CB, I love this!!! oxKelly @ turned UP to ELEVEN!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17316990503032552760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6578996577431253756.post-26103093638300264382016-02-24T09:25:32.358-06:002016-02-24T09:25:32.358-06:00Sarah I love this for so many reasons.
