are you married, or in a relationship longer then 5 years? how did you find or meet that person? dose this person make you feel complete in every way? did you ever think that it wasnt going to last as long as it did? what was it about the person that made you fall in love with them. do you think that the person that your with is your soulmate?

well thats good to hear. wow 12 years you dated her for. i dont think i would date someone that long. i think after the first 5 years i would have poped the question. i guess that some times you have to make sure that shes the right one and that its going to last. most women get very worried about if your ever going to ask them that four word question.

To be truthful i really do not know how it happened, cos you will surely be faced with alot of temptation but you must know what you are doing. I guess God has alot to do with it.

How strange and weird that I wrote what I did above! It was a self-fullfilling prophecy, because my husband passed away this year (2009), just about 7 months after I said what I did about whichever of us passes first, would leave a terrible void in the other’s life. We were married a total of 50 yrs., 7 months, and 2 weeks, and I miss my sweetie in every corner of this now empty home! My life will NEVER be the same. Classy Cat

I will be married 50 years this coming Sept. 20th. To answer all of your questions would take more time than I want to spend at this moment, as it is evening, and I am not going to be up much longer. Young people today think that feelings/desire and physical intimacy are love - not so - it doesn't mean that one won't have feelings, and the rest - - but, love is something that developes and hopefully grows to the place of what I call "being ripe." Kinda like fruit when it is ripe, that's when it is the best. Love takes committment, and that's something a lot of folks today, ain't got! One has to learn to share - to be able to say I'm sorry - to be willing to being wrong, and the biggy: to accept their mate AS IS, with faults, failures, and in-laws, which isn't always easy. Because of a lot of selfishness, and pride, and an unwillingness to go the extra mile, most relationships eventually end. It takes true committment, patience and honesty, and - - being willing to make emotional sacrifices often. I am a blessed woman. I am what you would consider 'clinically blind.' I am unable to drive any more - yet my husband takes me where I want/need to go, without complaining, and does a lot of very nice things for me. I believe that 'God' bought us together, because He knew what was coming, and that I'd need a very special man, to take care of me. Whichever of us passes on first, will cause the remaining one of us have a terrible void, and great grief in our lives, to bear for many years.

I'm married, we met online, I wasn't really expecting the relationship to last since we met young, but I hoped it would and I'm glad it did. No, he doesn't complete me, I complete myself. He compliments and supplements my life and makes me happy, he doesn't complete me. I first fell in love with his eyes and a very, very close second, his intelligence.

lol. not to many people think that far. ya i've been with my girl for 5 years now, but right now were not really to gether. she completes me in so may ways. i love her truly but i'm afraid that shes going to find someone else, becasue i'm like half accross the us for school. she say that she wait for me, but i'm just wondering how long she wait for. i met her through one of our friends. we really dont ever fight about anything and when we do its over something small.

just keep the communication open and talk a lot and it will help with the distance.. letters, emails, text, phone calls etc.. lol.. we were apart for about 4 months before and we didnt get much communication between us due to the circumstances but we do all of that now even though we arent apart other than work
