He was the first guy to take me to church, to grab my hand firmly, to chase me! And yes, we've been married a long time.

Even so, I thought no way would I marry a greasy mechanic. lol I was into shirts and ties kind of guys then. When he became available, I had a chance to get acquainted with him and found out we had a lot in common. It has worked out very well, and it will be 37 years in August.

They forget that the person they are marrying may be someone who they don't even like. <br /><br />I think that having things in common and talking about them ahead of time are important.<br /><br />I met my husband through his ex-wife when I taught his oldest son.

After he left I turned to my friend and told her he was the guy I was going to marry. We've been married now for 49 years. Did I recognize him as my soul mate? At 13 I wasn't thinking about love, heck I hadn't even had a first date! I just knew he was the guy I wanted to spend the rest of my life with and I still feel that way.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12937328419133796333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5742415355016995707.post-6457042976607713822014-04-14T09:28:06.136-04:002014-04-14T09:28:06.136-04:00What a great post, Marianne - really enjoyed it. :...What a great post, Marianne - really enjoyed it. :)Tina Donahuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07160021732404091277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5742415355016995707.post-91147515751060151302014-04-14T09:27:04.565-04:002014-04-14T09:27:04.565-04:00I love this topic, Marianne.

From that moment on there was no hope for anyone else - for either of us. It's nearly two decades later and we are as happy as the day we met. We are best friends and get excited about our breakfast date every week.

I'd never felt that before with any guy I'd dated. We were engaged a month later and married the following year. 37 years later and he's still my boyfriend. I can only imagine the journey our souls have been on together.Rose Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04429566802562925080noreply@blogger.com
