I think there are so many good/interesting points being made. My husband and I were introduced by a mutual friend and had a fun night, but I was sure he "wasn't my type". He persisted and just 4 months later, we were engaged. 4 months after that we were married (and no, we weren't pregnant). We'll so have been together for 20 years. Has it always been easy? No. Has it been worth the adjustments and work to stay happy together? Absolutely. And our union has produced a wonderful child that brings light to so many people. I do feel that we were meant to be together, but I KNOW that we have to choose to stay together.
...Kurben, what can I say brother?..."is better to have loved and lost" etc.?...maybe, but the hurt persists-and I pray you have another opportunity to let light into that that shuttered part of your soul...Lily?....nice, so nice-and the rest?...what wonderful stories....Tracy and I?...all I know is she is the center of my universe and the light in my heart...what else do I need to know?....
I did not go out with my man right away we were friends for a while before. we been through alot together though and i will always love him no matter what.
Dang, you're right out of a Nora Roberts novel. You should write your story and change your names - it would fly off the shelves and beat Nicholas Sparks trash all to hell.
You mean Vampire Lily, right?
...yep, but you am a sweetie-pot-pie as well....
(((((Kurben))))) Thoughts and prayers. I can't imagine what you've been through. Sometimes an experience like yours can mean a person chooses never to get involved with another person again, and not from fear or bitterness but in a healthy way. I suppose you might make this choice. If you're open to another intimate relationship, however, I know it will come along for you in time.
I met my husband kind of through my sister. He worked with her. I had one of those "when our eyes met" things going on. 
He asked my sister for my phone number, and she wouldn't give it to him. She told me to stay away from him. Not that she thought he was a bad person, just that he was "wrong" for me. He just looked my number up in the phone book, (I still have that little scrap of paper with my number on it), called me up for a cup of coffee, and I said yes with absolutely no expectation of anything coming of it...I was a single mom, and used to being seen as such. Ya know? Anyway, even though we are polar opposites in most everything, we clicked and were married 5 months later. I know everyone thought I was being irresponsible and stupid. Hasn't always been easy for sure, but have I ever wished I made a different decision? No way. He raised that child as his own, we added 3 more to the family, and will celebrate our 14th anniversary in February.
