Everything but the white wedding dress #Other
James emailed me after viewing my profile in 2004 with the words, "Unique yet beautiful". Obviously, I was intrigued. After months of talking, we decided to meet. It was sort of like love at first site. . .how they show it in the movies. There was an instant connection (and after meeting numerous, NUMEROUS people from the internet where there was nothing, I found this immediately refreshing as well as too good to be true) and we talked for hours. He was stationed in San Diego for the Navy, and we'd drive to see each other every weekend. We soon moved in together, and immediately were met with many hardships and trials, however we persevered, knowing that we'd never met someone like this before and never had a relationship like this before and we didn't want to lose what we had. Now, just about three years later, he proposed on New Years morning, and I accepted. While the wedding won't be for another year or two, we're excitedly planning our new life together. While we know it's going to be more the thorns in our bed of roses than actual roses, we're determined and positive to not become another "divorce" statistic. And our deep bond, our true friendship, and our unending and passionate love is all too strong for either of us to just walk away.
