I wouldn't say that. You don't know what I had put up with and endure for 7 years before I finally had enough and got out of my previous relationship.

As for she who found me..... we're engaged.

(And yeah I did the Proposing. LOL this isn't all one sided ya know )

Of course, you had to work for her, and it is worth it

The first love of my life I was 16

and crazy about this girl who lived in another town I would go to my grandmothers at the weekends and at night I would sneak out and go see her we were in love - puppy love that is and went out for 4 yrs then one day I went away for the weekend only to come back on Monday to hear that her father and her had a big argument where he sent her down to her mothers to live which is in the south island to far to chase her so I moved on but I was so broken for a good couple of months. About 10 or so years later we bumped into each other and I could see I still had feelings for her and she the same you just know by the body language, we talked for ages then went our ways as we were both married.... with kids

I never loved another woman like I did with her, even my wife (exwife) came 2nd to her. Just wasn't meant to be.

^WTF , cracks open a beer to get my manly-ness back.

I was her boss hehe.. I worked with 500 employees and more than half where women.. Most good looking.. Hot and into me... One of them fought harder than the rest. She won.. She got me. Later in the years we married. Best thing that ever happened.

She says now she's the boss...

I let her think that....

But deep down, I hope he and his wife are looking in the right direction

After My first marriage fell apart I felt so crushed that I joined the Army and jumped out of Aircraft for a living. I did what your not supposed to do in the Service.
I volunteered for anything that sounded remotely dangerous or extremely hard. For some reason I felt I needed to prove to myself I was A real Man and not some loser.

After the Army I did alot of travelling on different jobs and was full of confidence again. So I got married again.
To the Wicked Witch of the North!
I bailed out of that marriage after less then 2 years of being beaten!
She was a short little thing but broke my nose more then once and had a wicked way with a cast iron skillet!

And NO!! I never ever hit her back!

Before I married 'The Witch' I had a friend that I worked with in Bands.
He had this really Cool wife that was just so damned friendly and easy going, that I always envied him!!
When I was married to 'The Witch', they divorced.

About 3 months after left wife 2, I ran into her and jokingly asked her when we were going to go out.
I was floored when she said "let me take my date home and we'll go out now"!
That was a real mind trip to ride with them both as she dropped him off at home.

That was back around 1993 or 1994.
I asked her to marry me at a KISS concert a few years later and gave her a ring.
We actually rode to Gettyburg PA on our Triumphs 5 years ago come July and tied the knot.

I'm thinking I might keep her around for awhile.

Jeff, it sounds like a great thought

I met my wife when I worked for Goodyear as a service manager. She worked at a company named Parts Plus. She would take my daily parts orders that would deliver at night. Over a period of months and many flirting phone calls I asked that she send along a picture of herself in my parts order. She did so. The following days we made plans for her to come to my service center after I finished working and we go out for the night. We dated a year and married. Tomorrow, April 16th will mark our 17th year of marriage. We have 2 beautiful daughters.
