He cares about everyone, is a lot more levelheaded than I am, and extremely friendly

* What are his flaws?
He can be racist. And his grammar is atrocious.

* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
Yes. In late 2006 he cheated on me. I later returned the favor. I walked away after I cheated on him, but couldn't stand not seeing him everyday. I'm not really sure how we got the trust back, but we did.

* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
Nope. We are our own couples counseling.

* What is your favorite memory of him?
The morning of our second wedding anniversary, I woke up to a card and flowers, and breakfast in bed. When I read the card, we both started crying.

* Do you share a song together?
Not really. We like different kinds of music.

* Is he the "one"?
Yes.

* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
He's pretty damn close.

* How, when, & where did you meet him?: Jaim and I met about 8 years ago. Me and my friend Felicia were walking up the road to my Xboy friend's house, we were out of cigs so we decided that we were going to attempt to flag down the next car that passed us (only if they looked like they smoked of course), and this hot guy in a white truck drove past us & so we flagged him down, he stopped his truck, we walked over to it & started Bsing with one another, he gave me and my friend a few cigs, he gave me his #, and drove off. We met up again later that day.

* Was it love at first sight? I thought so, but it took him a while to realize it. ;)


* What does he look like? 6 ft 2 inches tall, white skin, 180 lbs (or close to), pretty boy style appearance,
physically fit!!! :D :D :D shaves his head, has a short length beard & mustache aka "sexy scruffies", wears brands like Kikwear & DC, has the most stunning eyes

* Is he older or younger than you?
* What do you love about him? Older, he is 30 & I am 23.

* How would you describe your relationship with him? We're married... nuff said.

* Would you change anything about him if you could? He snore like a bear sometimes!!! It drives me crazy because I can't sleep!!! He doesn't always listen to me as well as I would like him to (then again, he is a guy). :P

* What are his strengths? He understands the meaning & act of unconditional love.

* What are his flaws? He can be very negative at times as well as hypocritical toward me.

* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple? Yes, we have both hurt each other in so many ways, we almost divorced but some how, we made it through our hard times together and we're still standing strong as a couple.

* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him? Yes, but it didn't seem to be the best option for us.

* What is your favorite memory of him? I have so many of them!!! I will always look back and smile at the many times that he attended my prenatal gyno visits while I was pregnant with our son. Jaim did not miss so much as 1 appointment & the look on his face when we were told that we were having a baby boy... well let's just say it was absolutely priceless!!!

* Do you share a song together? Flaming June by BT (Dj BT)

* Is he the "one"? Some people would answer this question and say "yes, he treats me like a godess, he spoils me & we never/hardly ever fight, yes he is the one". Well, I will say this: Jaim does not treat me like a queen, he is mean sometimes, he doesn't always support my dreams, & some would say that he's an asshole to me, but I have seen and felt the unconditional love he has for me in his heart, regardless of the asshole he can be. I have had my chances to be with other guys & I have never been able to stay away from Jaim, for any guy, for any reason. We have fought so much in our relationship, long and hard & we have hurt each other many times & yet we are still together. There are more reasons that I can say that he is the one, than there are saying that he's not.

* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man? He fits the mold.. then again, he is the mold. There isn't another man that I have met so far, that can measure up to him.

* How, when, & where did you meet him?
We met at work, He was already working there when i was newly moved to the store after my training.

* Was it love at first sight?
More like love at first sound. I didn't see him but heard his voice, and after that i followed him around like a lost puppy.

* What does he look like?
5 foot 7 or 8, blonde shaved head, blue eyes, little bit of a chubby tummy, shortly trimmed beard with a mini goatee under his bottom lip.

* Is he older or younger than you?
Older then me by 13 years. I am 23, he is 36

* What do you love about him?
Absolutely everything. But mostly the way he makes everything better just by saying hello.

* How would you describe your relationship with him?
Sometimes i think we get along too well.

Never.

* What are his strengths?
He is dependable, smart, and caring, very affectionate. Knows how to make me laugh, make me feel sexy on my fat days.

* What are his flaws?
He's too agreeable in arguments.

* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
At this point he feels like there is nothing i could do to him to make him stop caring.

Our first kiss in the parking lot.

He is beyond my expectations of a terrific guy.

* How, when, & where did you meet him?
I saw him for the first time going down the road when his cousin mooned me & two of my friends, then flagged up over to a parking lot. He was trying to talk to me, but I was too unimpressed by his cousin's immaturity to give him the time of day. Then we ended up meeting again through his cousin & my best friend dating. It happened at the end of 2005, beginning of 2006.

* Was it love at first sight?
Absolutely not, actually I wasn't that interested to begin with. He didn't give me a very good first impression.

the way he is always there for me, I can tell him anything, he's my best friend!

* How would you describe your relationship with him?
Good, we have our ups & downs though.

* Would you change anything about him if you could?
well of course, I hate how he is so stressed all the time, impatient, insecure sometimes, & sometimes he can be just straight up mean.

* What are his strengths?
He is the most devoted father I've ever seen! He loves like no other man I've ever met. He is driven & very intelligent.

* What are his flaws?
impatient, insecure (but it's hidden under a cocky attitude), smokes too much, tempermental

* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
Yes, he has hurt me very badly before. Right after Jordyn was born he was unfaithful. I still haven't got over it. I just knew that I needed to give him a second chance because he is a good man & was struggling with all the changes going on in his life at the time.

* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
I've considered it, but never been.

* What is your favorite memory of him?
Probably when him & his friend were trying to change his first dirty diaper while I was in the shower. It was hilarious, his friend was trying to coach him through it.

* Do you share a song together?
No, but he really likes that song "whatever it is" by Zac Brown he says it reminds him of me.

* Is he the "one"?
I don't know yet. I hope so.

* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
Pretty close, nobody's perfect!

* How, when, & where did you meet him? My roommate in college was dating Matt's buddy. They were in the same unit at Ft. Hood. They gave him my #, we talked, and things progressed from there.
* Was it love at first sight? Yes. I couldn't breathe for a couple of seconds when I first saw him. Like time stopped.
* What does he look like? Tall, strawberry-blonde hair, baby face, fiercely green eyes. Gorgeous.
* Is he older or younger than you? He is 4 years younger :)
* What do you love about him? I love how much he loves me, and our daughter. I love how supportive he is. I love that he knows me, and all my faults and loves me anyway.
* How would you describe your relationship with him? Hard. We're going through our 3rd deployment, and each one has gotten a little harder. With the Army, you never know from day to day what will happen. Where he'll be, when he'll be home, etc. It has been exciting at times.
* Would you change anything about him if you could? I wish he was more realistic at times. He's a dreamer. Which, I love him for his dreams, but I'm very to the point, and realistic. It's a strain at times. He's hard headed, too, lol.
* What are his strengths? He is very loyal. He's loving, and attentive. He cares more than anyone else I've ever known. He listens, and even if he doesn't understand, he tries.
* What are his flaws? Like I said, he's hard headed, and unrealistic at times. He can be wishy washy in his decisions.
* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple? No. Neither of us has, or would.
* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him? Yes. Through these deployments, I've thought we might benefit from counseling. It's an option, for sure.
* What is your favorite memory of him? When we found out we were pregnant with Emily... he ran around, jumping up and down all over the house yelling, "I'm gonna be a Daddy!!" LOL. It was so cute, especially when the pregnancy was so unexpected. We had only been married for 4 months when we found out!
* Do you share a song together? "I Cross My Heart" by George Strait and "At Last" by Etta James
* Is he the "one"? Is there a "One"?? I believe God intended our marriage, and our precious girl, for sure.
* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man? I don't think the "perfect man" exists. No one is perfect, but I love Matt. Flaws and all.

Ooh, I like reading about these things xD.

* How, when, & where did you meet him?
I met him over the Internet through a couple of mutual friends, one of which was his girlfriend at the time. And this was winter 2004.
* Was it love at first sight?
Not technically. The FIRST time we talked, he told me I could kill myself ;). Then we talked again, were friends for nearly a year, and then met in person and began dating.
* What does he look like?
Erm. He's one inch taller than me (5'10"), medium build, reddish brown hair, and oddly the same exact green color eyes as me.
* Is he older or younger than you?
He's 3 years and 5 months older than me.
* What do you love about him?
I love that we were best friends first, and that has continued throughout the relationship. I love his sense of humor and the way he not only tells me, but SHOWS me, that he loves me. And I adore how his future goals align with mine, as well as his love of animals ;).
* How would you describe your relationship with him?
He's been my husband since July 26, 2008.
* Would you change anything about him if you could?
No. I say things that I "hate", but I'd never change them. Can't say much, I married him KNOWING he would do the things he does :P.
* What are his strengths?
I can tell him anything and he can react like a friend instead of a husband if the situation calls for it. He cares about enough that he WOULD do ANYTHING for me.
* What are his flaws?
He's about as good as I am about discussing things without overheating or getting defensive. We have major blowout arguments because of that.
* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
When we were in the beginning, we broke up I'd say a total of 5 times in 3 months. It was a hard start, all my fault, and I'm glad he stuck with me through it.
* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
No. I don't think we've had any fights that have warranted that.
* What is your favorite memory of him?
His face on our wedding day.
* Do you share a song together?
A few.
* Is he the "one"?
He is!
* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
He's everything I thought was perfect and more. (I know, I'm so cheesy!)

- At a gig in Boston (lincolnshire, not mass) on 8th September 2001
- No it was more 'desperate and drunk' at first sight
- He's taller than me, dark blonde, he always looks like you've just caught him doing something naughty
- He's 6 months older
- I love the way he makes me giggle helplessly
- We are married
- Several things. I will describe below
- He is sensible, grounded and makes me laugh
- He can be rude, bigoted and uneducated. His grammar is appalling.
- Yes, he has told me whopping great lies that I have had trouble forgiving. But I did forgive him.
- No
- The noises he made when our baby popped out of me. That sounds wierd. I've never heard him sound so tender.
- A few. That nobody else will have heard of because the small unsigned bands that sung them are now defunct.
- Yes
- He pretty much is my perfect man

-How, when, & where did you meet him?
Met him online. The first time I met him in person, I went to his house to hang out and watch movies :]

-Was it love at first sight?
I think it was more like "holy shit, hes gorgeous! lets make babies." ahaha. but I can definitely seeing myself loving him in the future :)

-What does he look like?
6'1, gorgeous blue eyes, he's just my teddy bear.

-Is he older or younger than you?
Three years older, so he's 23 :]

-What do you love about him?
I love that we have absolutely everything in common, he's never given me a reason to be upset with him, and he always listens to what I say. No matter how stupid it is, or how much I'm rambling.

-How would you describe your relationship with him?
Fresh. :P

-Would you change anything about him if you could?
I'd change how much time he has to spare. He has to work a lot during the week, so I don't get to see him as often as I'd like, since he's worn out from work and goes straight to bed when he gets home.

-What are his strengths?
His personality. He's sarcastic, goofy, romantic, serious and cocky all wrapped up in one amazing package.

-What are his flaws?
I wouldn't call it a flaw per-se. I just am still getting used to his sarcasm, and occasionally I'll think he's serious about something, and take it the wrong way. I'm getting much better at it though, lol.

-Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
So far, no. The only thing that I would say "hurt" me, is when he doesn't talk to me for awhile. Because of past relationships, this freaks me out a little bit. I keep it to myself, because I know that I'm just over-reacting (because every time there has been an explanation, and a good one. not just "oh I'm busy." its, "Sorry, I had overtime at work" or something. Which happens often) but he can always tell when something is or has bothered me. I don't lie to him, ever. He's understanding of it though, which is all I can ask :)

-Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
Uhm, haven't had one of those yet, thank goodness. But I don't think couples counseling is something I'd ever try. Maybe if I was married and we were contemplating divorce or something. But not while dating, not this early on :P

-What is your favorite memory of him?
So far, just snuggling up with him on the swing in his backyard, and starring at the stars. He lives a bit south of me, where it's more country-ish. There aren't streetlights there, so you can see everything. It's gorgeous to me, because where I've lived my whole life, is in the center of a city. I love nature so much :)

-Do you share a song together?
No, not yet.

-Is he the "one"?
I can see him potentially BEING the one. I'm not sure right now though. I suppose if I had to pick someone this SECOND, I'd choose him. ;D

-How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
Honestly, he goes above and beyond.

How, when, & where did you meet him?
Initially online, through a pagan chat I was running.

* Was it love at first sight?
From the second we met for real.

* What does he look like?
Six five, blonde hair, brown eyes, built like the proverbial brick shithouse ;)

* Is he older or younger than you?
Younger....go the cougars!!

* What do you love about him?
Pretty much everything and more each day.

* How would you describe your relationship with him?
Very solid.

* Would you change anything about him if you could?
No I dont think so...he drives me mad sometimes but I like him how he is.

* What are his strengths?
Hes taken on an awful lot of baggage when he took me on and doesnt complain or judge. Hes unfailing loyal and adores me and our son. What else do I need?

* What are his flaws?
He can be a bit lazy...when I get the bit between my teeth I HAVE to do it and he 'thinks' while I 'do'..but I am learning to deal with that ;) And a lack of humility sometimes.

* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
Once....I came close to walking away after a careless comment that shredded me to the bone and a lot of my reaction was my fault...we had gone into the relationship both saying we were happy with the status quo and that neither of us wantedf committment and a comment about how he wanted to get married and have babies...and " well..you have already done that" devestated me.

* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
Considered it, and still do. But we argue less these days.

* What is your favorite memory of him?
The look on his face when our son was born.

* Do you share a song together?
Not really...hes a classical kinda guy and I am a metal head who doesnt compromise ;)

* Is he the "one"?
Hope so..we just had our first anniversary!!

* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
Above and over the top..he makes me feel safe and like I dont have to take on the world singlehandedly anymore...as he tells me.."babe...Im on your side"

* How, when, & where did you meet him?
~I met him through my cousin - they went to school together before I moved out here. I 'met' him in like 2003, but we didn't start dating until 2004. I don't remember exactly where we were introduced, but I imagine it was probably at my cousins house.~

* Was it love at first sight?
~Not at all. For the first year of knowing each other, we didn't have any attraction to each other at all. I would even go as far as to say I didn't care for him.~

* What does he look like?
~He's about 5'9". Stockier. HUGE arm & leg muscles. Sky blue eyes and dark brown hair. He has some chin hair.~

* Is he older or younger than you?
~He's 2.5 years older.~

* What do you love about him?
~I love that he has always made me feel like I don't need to try and be perfect. He's told me over and over again, he doesn't like stick girls. And he doesn't like tan. (I'm naturally very fairskinned) He loves me for me.~

* How would you describe your relationship with him?
~It has a deep foundation. One on shared love.~

* Would you change anything about him if you could?
~He's not very affectionate.~

* What are his strengths?
~He's strong, he's strong-WILLED and he's negotiable, LOL~

* What are his flaws?
~He doesn't listen, he's kinda greedy and he's hypocritical~

* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
~Yes. He hurt me by getting really drunk one night. He ended up vomiting all over the house and making a general ass out of himself (in front of friends and my little brother, no less) ... and then getting physical and punching walls and screaming when I told him I was going to stay at a friends house for the night because I didn't want to be around that. I had to work the next morning, so there was a lot of time for him to stew over it. He ended up texting me that he was sorry while I was at work - but I made him come talk to me after I got home. He wasn't very good at that .. all he did was listen and never said anything which frustrated me, but I felt better that he listened ... and it hasn't happened again.~

* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
~No. I think I would only resort to counseling if we thought divorce was our only option over something.~

* What is your favorite memory of him?
~Everything. He's the light of my life.~

* Do you share a song together?
~We have a wedding song, but it's not important to us.~

* Is he the "one"?
~I sure hope so, our one-year wedding anniversary is Sunday!~

* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
~I'll be the first one to say it, I don't have any qualms with it. He's not perfect. He's not even close to perfect. He'll never *be* perfect in my eyes. But I love him for that, and he loves me for not being perfect, too.~

* How, when, & where did you meet him?
Like a month ago on a night out, he was in one of the bands playing. i was very drunk and i remember him smiling at me at one point.. at the end of the night we somehow ended up kissing, i dont know how it came about lol, and my friend took him home and we exchanged numbers.
* Was it love at first sight?
No, I dont believe it that, i liked him, but I was very drunk.
* What does he look like?
Hes my height, long dark hair, green eyes.
* Is he older or younger than you?
A year younger.
* What do you love about him?
He really makes the effort and always texts me and tries to arrange meeting up. He makes me feel wanted and he doesnt play any games. Hes shy which is cute, but hes started opening up more, and he has a 5 year old sister who he is really sweet with. i like that. i feel comfortable with him, i normally have an issue with eye contact but i can look him straight in the eyes. i feel nervous and excited when im going to see him.
* How would you describe your relationship with him?
New! and exciting.
* Would you change anything about him if you could?
No, hes lovely as far as I can see.
* What are his strengths?
He always makes time for me, hes good with kids (not that i want any at the moment but its nice to see), he is really dedicated to his band and has drive, he seems really genuine.
* What are his flaws?
He can get a bit shy sometimes, but I think thats sweet.
* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
No.. it's not been that long for any drama.
* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
Lol, no?

This last weekend, spending the weekend mostly in bed and then spending time with his little brother and sister and seeing what a lovely family they are.
* Do you share a song together?
Haha no.
* Is he the "one"?
No idea..
* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
I think he's pretty close.. he makes me happy.

* How, when, & where did you meet him?
Ermmmm about 5 1/2 years ago, went to meet some friends of a friend and he was there. He remembers this perfectly, I barely remember it at all.

* Was it love at first sight?
For him it was crush at first sight, and I was with someone so no, not at all.

* What does he look like?
He's tall (I'm sure he's still growing), very hairy, had fat fingers. Slowly turning into a mountain man :)

* Is he older or younger than you?
4 years and a couple of months older.

* What do you love about him?
Everything. He can be really silly, looks after me when I'm poorly, doesn't mind me nagging (in fact encourages it), inside his heart of icy rock is a great big soft pile of goo.

* How would you describe your relationship with him?
Solid and content.

* Would you change anything about him if you could?
No, he might drive me up the wall and round the bend frequently, but I think I'd die of shock if he spontaneously got up and started washing up.

* What are his strengths?
Opening jars/bottles, reaching things on high shelfs... Seriously though, he's honest, he's good at accepting responsibility and compromising, he has a good heart, he's fun to be around, he makes me laugh, he's a clever-clogs.

* What are his flaws?
The fact he is utterly unable to do any kind of housework without being nagged about it repeatedly. He struggles with putting something away when he's finished with it. The man is a slob, although he hates it.

* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
Yes, he didn't cope with us being long distance and went slightly loopy. We got through it because we both had a glimpse of what being without each other would be like, and we didn't want that. Plus we knew we loved each other.

* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
We don't fight :s But I'd certainly consider it if we were on the brink of splitting up and I thought the relationship was worth trying to save.

* What is your favorite memory of him?
Hmmm. I really don't know. Just little things like our random adventures, or laying in bed cuddling talking nonsense.

* Do you share a song together?
No. We're seriously unromantic.

* Is he the "one"?
I don't believe in the "one". However, I can see myself growing old with him.

* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
Pretty darn close, he's so far from perfect but I wouldn't want him any other way.

* How, when, & where did you meet him?
We met at school, about 4 years ago. His ex girlfriend got my e-mail address for him and then he added me and we started talking. Though, I knew him from before hand, just not personally.
* Was it love at first sight?
lol, well... it took 3 tries so I guess not. But I did have a crush on him the minute I saw him xD
* What does he look like?
Ummm, tall dark and handsome? lol, I don't know. He's tall, yes. He's got a face, hair, eyes, nose, mouth, body, appendages...
* Is he older or younger than you?
Older, by a month.
* What do you love about him?
That he knows me better than I know myself, that even though he's not at all affectionate in public, to me he's a whole different person. That no one would expect him to say the things he says to me. :) Much more.
* How would you describe your relationship with him?
lol, right now? Confusing. Ask me in about 3 weeks.
* Would you change anything about him if you could?
Umm, he would not live 8 hours away.
* What are his strengths?
Everything. He's smart, he's honest, he's athletic, he's motivated...
* What are his flaws?
He's a little too honest to some people. Not me, mind you, but some people.
* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
Yup. Several times, actually. We've been broken up twice, we've almost broken up about four more times on top of that. It usually comes down to a lot of thinking, speaking logically a bout our relationship, and him realizing that he doesn't really want to lose me.
* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
lol no
* What is your favorite memory of him?
The night I stayed at his house when no one was home. Waking up next to him was the happiest I've ever woken in my life.
* Do you share a song together?
Not exactly. There's lots of songs that could pertain to us both, but there's no one song we really share together. Maybe Always Where I Need To Be - The Kooks
* Is he the "one"?
Perhaps. Who's to say?
* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
I don't think there's one "perfect" man. They all have flaws. But he's pretty well matched to me, and I don't believe there's anyone better for me, RIGHT NOW. But who's to say what will happen in the future.

Thank God! A man with appendages! ;)

And oh boy, are they GREAT appendages. ;)

* How, when, & where did you meet him?
I was sitting alone watching cable TV (Coming to America with Eddie Murphy/Arsenio Hall) in the bar half of this coffee and bar. He was sitting at the same table, though he was sitting facing another table so his back was too me. He turned around, smiled, and introduced himself. We talked about Eddie Murphy movies/standups.

* Was it love at first sight?
It was definitely something. I felt an immediate connection to him like we'd known each other for a long time.

* What does he look like?
5'11", brown hair, brown eyes, and the most adorable love handles complimented by no butt and with chicken legs!

* Is he older or younger than you?
Half the year he is 6 years older. The other half he's 5 1/2 years older.

* What do you love about him?
He gets this twinkle in his eye when he is thinking about me and whatever stupid thing I'm doing that he finds cute

* How would you describe your relationship with him?
Antagonistic. We playfully threaten each other by fucking them up, kicking their ass, beating the shit out of them... but seriously, never once have we ever meant it.

* Would you change anything about him if you could?
His smoking habit. I can deal with leaving laundry in the dryer and waiting till the next day to clean up the dinner dishes.

* What are his strengths?
Diffusing my anger with his calm, becoming financially stable, putting up with me

* What are his flaws?
Too much talk sometimes and not enough "do" which contradicts me and my motivation to get shit done.

* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
Nope. Not matter how many times I threaten to cut him like a fish!

* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
We've only had one disagreement and that was moving in together but spending 3 days without me to think about what he wants from this relationship fixed that. If we saw anyone for couples' counseling, it would be so he could work through his issues with bouts of depression... so far though, he seems to have gotten out of that slump. We'll see.

* What is your favorite memory of him?
Drunkenly singing "Let's Stay Together" in a karaoke bar to me.

* Do you share a song together?
Our first dance was "Forever Yours" and we also still have that soft spot for "Let's Stay Together"

* Is he the "one"?
Yep. Been thinking that since the first date and he knows it!

* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
Hardly at all, but because of that intense immediate connection, he may not be a perfect man, but he's perfect for me.

You two are so cute :)

Not sure what happened with that post. I just noticed it, too. Allow me to try again.

* How, when, & where did you meet him?
Bolt.com, in December 1999.

* Was it love at first sight?
No, because I had no idea what he looked like for months, and love happened before I even found out.

* What does he look like?
5'9"ish, burly Ukrainian build with lots of burly Ukrainian body hair, red hair with white patch in the back.

* Is he older or younger than you?
Older by a whole 8 months!

* What do you love about him?
That perfect mix of immaturity and maturity. And his cooking. He makes food that looks like vomit but tastes like heaven.

* How would you describe your relationship with him?
Lately, utter crap. We've got some issues we can't seem to overcome.

* Would you change anything about him if you could?
Been trying that the last ten years. In some areas I've succeeded, at least.

* What are his strengths?
He's understanding and compassionate.

* What are his flaws?
He's stubborn and a wee bit arrogant.

* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
Overcoming the personal hurdles that require help and support from one another has failed miserably over the years, and I feel it's slowly eating away at our relationship. We cling to life, though, and hopefully we'll struggle through it, as we have with everything else. Patience and endurance aren't our strongest traits, but they do exist, and that's a start.

* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
Yes. Haven't proposed that idea to him yet though.

* What is your favorite memory of him?
The day we met in person. It was ages ago, but I'll never forget it. I was so tired after an 8 hour car ride, but when I saw him, I was happy.

* Do you share a song together?
Meh, not really.

* Is he the "one"?
I have my doubts sometimes, but I still believe so.

* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
A few more changes and he'll be there.

* How, when, & where did you meet him?
Over two years ago, I was talking to Tyrone one night (mutual friend) and he made a trip to Papa Johns where he and my bf, John, were working at the time. They were messing around, I could hear John poking fun at Tyrone and then John locked Tyrone out of Papa Johns (lol) when I asked Tyrone to let me talk to John.
* Was it love at first sight?
No, I don't believe in love at first sight because I'm not one to judge on physical appearance. I'm MALL about the personality, but when I finally saw a picture of him, I thought he was adorable and had THE most gorgeous eyes EVER.
* What does he look like?
he's an oreo lol he's half white and half african, but everyone always think he's puerto rican. He's got black curly hair, half green half gold eyes (not hazel, both colors are separated from eachother), about 5'11-5'11.5, perfect full lips, and a smile that can make the hardest ice queen melt. ;D
* Is he older or younger than you?
Older, he's 23
* What do you love about him?
The fact that he loves unconditionally. He's always there and no matter how hard I push him away or "shut down", he never backs down from the challenge.
* How would you describe your relationship with him?
We have a very emotionally deep, FUN, and incredible relationship. It's really hard to describe, but it's perfect.
* Would you change anything about him if you could?
The only thing that bothers me is that he's insecure. He literally hates the way he looks =[
* What are his strengths?
Other than his physical insecurities, he's a very strong person. He's an all around great guy. He's smart, funny, incredibly sweet, creative, talented, and simply amazing
* What are his flaws?
His insecurities and sometimes he's like a girl and gets really really emotional to the point where he can hardly handle it lol
* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
He has NEVER hurt me. Up until a month ago, we were broken up. I broke up with him because it just wasn't the right time for either of us and I did break his heart. I ended up calling him over a month ago because I had always felt bad about hurting him and I was going through a rough patch and felt the need to apologize and get it off of my chest, but we talked for about a month before we realized that we were meant to be together
* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
Nope! There's nothing we can't work out on our own.
* What is your favorite memory of him?
I honestly can't pick a favorite memory because they're ALL so amazing. No matter what we're doing.
* Do you share a song together?
He had dedicated "Cupid's Chokehold" by Gym Class Heroes to me a couple years ago, but other than that we don't really share a song yet =]
* Is he the "one"?
Absolutely!
* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
Measure up? Shit, he IS my perfect man! ;D

* How, when, & where did you meet him? I met him because he worked "nextdoor" to me and my co-workers knew as well.
* Was it love at first sight? I definitely fancied him straight away
* What does he look like? short and similar look to James Dean in some angles.
* Is he older or younger than you? 2 years and 25 days older
* What do you love about him? he fought for me.
* How would you describe your relationship with him? It's very much like Daisy and Tim from Spaced.
* Would you change anything about him if you could? No. Sure he has faults but I love him for him inspite of those faults.
* What are his strengths? cooking haha! he has many.
* What are his flaws? when he gets cocky.
* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple? I've hurt him by trying to break up with him, he hurt me by saying something horrible out of spite but we always get through because we break the mould.
* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him? yeah in the past when our relationship was much different but not anymore
* What is your favorite memory of him? just whenever he hurts himself, it's so freakign comical lol!
* Do you share a song together? yeah a few, we mainly share numerous quotes from films and tv shows that we find funny.
* Is he the "one"? theres no other man for me.
* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man? theres no perfect, but him+me has equaled a pretty incrediable relationship :)

* How, when, & where did you meet him?
-Camping almost 8 years ago. My friend Becky took me with her for Mem. Day Weekend, and I met him there. We were friends for six years before we started dating.
* Was it love at first sight?
-No, I was 12 and didn't really know what love was. I was just boy crazy.
* What does he look like?
-He's my height and slender, with brown curly hair (he buzzes it because it doesn't curl so well anymore) and hazel green eyes. He wears glasses and normally has a chintee. He has a hairy chest, stomach, arms, and legs (which I LOVE!), with arched feet and girly hands.
* Is he older or younger than you?
-Older, by 5 years.
* What do you love about him?
-I love that he can make me laugh and I'm so open with him. He's said some really sweet things to make me cry also, but not on purpose, of course!
* How would you describe your relationship with him?
-Our relationship has its hard times as relationships do, but we are crazy in love and nothing will ever change that.
* Would you change anything about him if you could?
-I don't like that he's super messy and doesn't seem to care. Also, sometimes he talks to me like he's my father and I really don't like that.
* What are his strengths?
-He's caring, a good listener, generous, VERY family oriented, and helpful to others.
* What are his flaws?
-Sometimes he talks too much, he can be rude at times (he likes to interrupt people), he's messy, and he can't cook very well.
* Has he ever hurt you or have you ever hurt him so terribly bad that it put your relationship in jeopardy? How did you get through it as a couple?
-Yes. It's always been me. The first couple times, I made out with a guy at a party, then did it again. Next, he found my Bloop and some of the things I wrote upset him. Like I'd been keeping secrets. But we talked about things for a good long while and made it through together. We just share our feelings and open up to each other.
* Have you ever tried/considered couple's counseling after a really big fight with him?
-No. Hopefully our petty arguments never get to that point.
* What is your favorite memory of him?
-We were at the lake not this past summer but the summer before. He was laying down on a blanket, the sun shining with a gentle breeze, I was sitting next to him with my hand on his chest, just talking to him and enjoying the day.
* Do you share a song together?
-Calling You by Blue October
* Is he the "one"?
-I sure hope so, in May it will be THREE years together!
* How does he measure up to your idea of the perfect man?
-He has never raised his fist to me in ANY shape or form. He likes to communicate with me, and listen when I have something to say. If I ever let him go, I'd be making a huge mistake.
