Tell me do you fall in love with a person by meeting them and setting a date with them? Could love be by accident or would it be fate? Tell me your stories of how you met your loved ones. I met my first serious boyfriend when I was 19 years old. I was a very wild girl when I met him, nothing that I am proud of I can assure you. He was twice my age and I was kind of wanting to leave my grandma's so I could feel independent and free. I was friends with his 2 sons who were closer to my age and they both had crushes on me, one was 16 the other 14 or 15 and so I knew that they were minors and decided it best not to date them. So, just so I could get out of my grandma's house I dated their dad who flirted with me and asked me out on a date when I seen them moving the rest of the stuff from his mom's mobile home. I really didn't find him attractive at all. With time I grew to have feelings for him and assumed it was love. Not once did I cheat on him, but towards the end of our relationship he had cheated on me with 2 or 3 women I knew of. Now, as I sat back and think of it I believe that it wasn't really love, it was more or less lust and a way out for freedom. Now, I am with my husband who I met in October of 2003. I had decided that I wasn't going to date anymore after my ex broke my heart. I had told several guys that had asked me out repeatedly, "No". And then I met chris 2 weeks before his birthday. I knew his brother justin as a friend. Justin hadn't told me he had any siblings, and come to find out he had 7 siblings besides himself. And I went to this dude name Steve's house where justin, my cousin, my brother, and a couple of their friends were staying and moving in. I came with my aunt and her boyfriend to drop off my cousins belongings and that is when I met Chris. He was the cutest and sexiest thing I ever saw. I felt an instant connection with him. I felt like his eyes were bewitched or something. lol He ended up there at the house when his tires on his car blew out and couldn't get back up to morgantown, ky. where he is from. And I happened to come over that same night, and his brother justin who I knew said meet my brother chris, and I was like you have a brother?, and he was like yeah, several. " So, I talked to chris on the phone a few times and then he invited me over for his birthday party they were having over there at steve's and asked me out the same night and I said yes. Now we are married and have a 19 month old baby girl named aaliyah. And I am more in love than I have ever felt. And the saying is not true married people get bored with each other. Him and me never tire of each other. We have our little spats here and there though. So, tell me how do you know when you are truly in love and they are the one? Tell me your stories of love girls and guys.
