Have you met the love of your life?

[WDWLVR]

Met him 15 years ago. We'll be married 14 years this October! Like many others on this thread he's not only my DH, but my best friend as well!

Yes, I've met him and I'm with him now, but for how long, who knows? I knew when we met that nothing more than dating would come of our relationship, and I accepted that, but I DIDN'T know then that he was going to be my true love and soul mate. It breaks my heart to know that some day (possibly soon) that we will have to part ways. Not having him in my life would be like losing my right arm. He's my best friend and the love of my life. (Just so you know, he is a different nationality than me and his parents wish for him to marry someone from his race...they wouldn't accept anything else, and he feels that he owes them the respect to honor their wishes. His whole life he has been raised to know this and to go against them would mean he would lose their respect and any relationship with them.) He has also told me that it is what he wants for himself, so I know that there will be nothing more between us than what we have now. It breaks my heart, but I wouldn't give up what we have now, and I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts, and have wonderful memories when it's over...

Oh bizybea ~ that's so sad.....

Beauty ~ your post was so sweet!! I would vote for you & J to be the Dis Boards Sweethearts of the year!

As for me, yep, I got a good one too! We'll be married 10 years this May. He asked me to marry him 2 weeks after we met!! I think we both just "knew" that we were meant for each other!

I sure did. He's in my avatar. He's only a year old, but he loves me more than he loves chicken nuggets.

I have met the love of my life, finally. There isn't a person I have met who knows that has a mean thing to say about her. My parents absolutely adore her, as well as the rest of my family. She's down to earth and she's just genuinely nice. She is easy going and easy to love. I'm so lucky we met when we did, other wise somebody else might have her and I'd still be questioning whther there was someone right for me. I don't ask myself that question anymore.

We just celebrated 16 years of being together on the 31st of January!
On May 22nd, we will celebrate 13 years of marriage! It still blows me away when I think that I've been with the same man for just about half of my life!

 

[catsrule]

Yes, he is grey and very handsome and has a nice, rubbable belly.

 

[emmagata]

I thought so about 14 years ago when I married my wife but recently she confessed that she didn't.

 

[parrothead365]

I firmly believe that my wonderful wife of 17 years and I were made to be together. When we are apart I feel like part of me is missing. I don't want to go through life with anybody else. I am truely the luckiest guy in the world

Love ya Sugar Mean It

 

[emmagata]

Sorry for the double post.

 

[believe]

Definitely...and even though I wouldn't tell him I LOVE YOU until I was absolutely positive, I really knew from the beginning now that I look back. In the almost 11 years I have known Shep, almost 9yrs of marriage, my love has grown more than I ever could have imagined. Each day I am shown or reminded of reasons God has put Shep in my life. Unfortunately I am not always the best in showing my love to him. He is my best friend, lover and spiritual mate. The challenges we have overcome have just brought us closer. I am a better/stronger person because of his love and support. Most of all he accepts me for who I am, faults and all.

 

[dianeschlicht]

YES!
And we have been married for 35+ wonderful years!

 

[bubie2.5]

No. And I don't think it will happen for me.

 

[Kimickey]

Yes, I must say that I have met the love of my life. DH and I have come a long way and a long way to go. He's sometime a bone head, but he's my bonehead and I would not have it any other way. I can see myself growing old with him and our conversations still interesting. He brings out the best in me and we compliment each other. Not only is he a great husband he's an even greater father. I love him to death.

Okay I'm going to stop now because he may read this post and think I like or love him for some strange reason.

 

[CookieGVB]

Some of you ought to print out your responses and enclose them in your SO's Valentine's Day card. Very nice.

I thought I found mine...but I was mistaken.

 

[Deb in IA]

Absolutely.


I was smitten when I first saw my love almost 21 years ago. He was a 4th year medical student, and I was a brand new 3rd year student, scared to death, on the Medicine wards. He was funny, helpful, supportive, encouraging, and had the most amazing gray eyes I have ever seen.

We dated for the next 5 years, endured a long distance relationship, and internship and residency training, before marrying on September 24, 1988.

He is still handsome, smart, compassionate, funny, and now a great father and husband. He is a talented musician and singer, works out every day and is in great shape. He knows me better than I know myself. Yes, we fight and argue, discuss and disagree, and compromise, but we also love each other more and more each day. I am a better person because of him.

I love my husband.

 

[jx3smom]

I've been married to him for over 13 years.

 

[tinaluis]

Absolutely - DH and I have been married for 10 years and dating for 20 (June, 2004). We were childhood friends so he knows my entire family and history and I his. He's supportive, funny, a great husband, father and friend. I'm amazed everyday at what a wonderful life we have.

My mom always tells me that there is someone out there for me, I am just having a hard time finding him. I am not so convinced of this, so I had to vote for: No, I'm convinced they don't exist on this planet.

Hopefully some day someone will come along and prove me wrong!! (some day soon would be nice!! )
