i love this thread! i could go on for ages about my H2B but ill try keep it short!
the day we met: he worked for the same company as my dad and i was going for an interview there for a apprenticship in the accounts dept(age 16) they arranged for H2B to pick me up from the bus stop as it wasnt on route, and when he did the boss sent him on some jobs before he dropped me off and we hit it off straight away just talking about crap.. if we owned a vending machine what we would have in it... etc haha from that day we met on evenings and went on dates, i knew he was the one for me from then (i didnt tell him i made him wait 2months before we made it official)
anyhow.
* he is the softest most kindest man i have ever met
* he will do anything for anyone
* he tells me he loves me everyday
* he talks crap all the time and makes me laugh no matter how down i am
* he makes me feel special
* he is very scrummy
* he is always there for me
* i miss him so much when we arent together
* i NEED to speak to him at least 3 times a day while hes at work
* he is the best father to our children
* we have been together nearly 6yrs and i want to spent the next 60with him!!!
* he knows everything there is to know about me hes seen me in some horrific states and still loves me!
there is so much more but he is my sole mate, my best friend & the best lover!0 -
wow that is scary isnt it, it is amazing what stress can do though. did you find you had them more in the lead up to your wedding?
Not really, no. They normally happen when I'm stressed and don't realise it, so about work or about family problems. Wedding planning gave me something else to 'worry' about. Last night was the first time in ages.
I'll stop hogging the thread now!Don't worry about typing out my username - Call me COMP(Unless you know my real name - in which case, feel free to use that just to confuse people!)0 -
I don't know how I know, but just that I know he's the one.
OH is not my "usual" type. In fact, he's as far from that as you could possibly be (while still remaining male).
But he makes my insides sing, treats me like a princess (he was away this weekend and I realised that it was the first time I'd made myself a cup of tea in months!), and is really good at coping with my ME/fibromyalgia - he'll run baths, help me to wash, cook for me, does the cleaning and generally looks after me.We may not have it all together, but together we have it all :beer:

Aww I love all the stories here. It was fate really that me and H2B met; I sent my mum to our local shopping centre with a whole bunch of CV's when I was just finishing up my first year at uni because I needed a job for the summer and didn't have time to do it myself. My mum went in all the shops that were advertising and then she had 1 CV left and thought sod it and went in this random store (quite well known high street jewellers) where I ended up getting a job. H2B already worked there and he was the first person I spoke to, we chatted for ages without actually introducing ourselves. When he eventually went "oh by the way my name is..." i was smitten with the ridiculousness of it!
We've spent most of our 5 years together actually living apart (me at uni, then he moved out of the area for work). But he texts me every morning to wish me a happy day and we speak every night on the phone. He is the most affectionate man I've ever known, he always wants a hug or a kiss and isn't ashamed of people seeing his vulnerable side. He treats me like a princess and absolutely worships me and makes me feel so special even when I'm feeling like a fat blob. He always has a bath running and a glass of wine waiting for me when I arrive at his flat after the horrible trek from mine to his. We don't have to go out and do things, we are more than happy just sitting on the sofa both reading our own books. He is the only man I can imagine myself marrying and I really can't wait. Just need to hurry up and get a new job closer to him and then we can finally live together!Emergency Fund - £8572.39 / £10,000 :: Mortgage OP 2025 - £LISA 24/25 - £3200 / £4000 :: NSD 2025 - 2 / 150 :: Books Read: 1 / 52 :: Decluttering - 4 / 1000Engaged 9th December 2010 :: Married 29th October 2015 :: Bought a House 13th January 20170 -
I love this thread!
My OH told me several months into our relationship, he knew I was the one after a couple of hours of meeting me!
It took me a bit longer than that to realise he was my one! When we met we lived two hours apart. I was just about over my last relationship when we me, which had also been long distance, and so I was no way looking for another one! However, he was very insistent (he was so keen in fact he almost put me off him!) so I decided to give it a go. I think I realised he was the one about 2 months into our relationship, I went on holiday with my folks and couldn't get phone signal to call him or event text to say we had arrived safely! Longest week ever!!
It's now almost 3.5 years later and I'm so glad that he was so determined at the start!!0 -
Well my hubby fancied me the first day we met. He always said to his mates/collegues he would "get me" lol I didnt see anything in him other than a fabulous personality and an absolute sweetheart. As the months went on we became best of friends - we became inseperable and did absolutely everything together. He always looked out for me, did everything for me, always got me things i wanted and just generally cared so much for me. My feelings for him grew stronger everyday. I always felt comfortable around him and he made me laugh so much. I always wanted to be in his company. One day he moved away for work purposes and i hated it. we spoke on "MSN" and through txt but it wasnt enough. After many visits to his new home one thing led to another and we started seeing each other. He kept telling me he was the luckiest person in the world to have me. Many months went by we had a huge fall out and i walked out on him. He came chasing after me crying his eyes out and telling me i was "the one" and he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me. From then on i always knew he was the one. 6 years later we are married and planning children - I am one happy bunny!!!

I knew my hubby to be was the one when i slept around his and never went home.
This. For us there was never any game-playing. I used to hate all that horsesh*t. My fella was never afraid to say he wanted to see me and there was no 'waiting two hours before replying' type rubbish which my friends (and people I'd previously been on dates with) had always sworn by. I liked him, he liked me. Simple! : )
I'd been single for a long time before meeting him and was very set in my ways. I had incredibly high expectations when it came to love and if no-one was going to meet them, then why bother? I had (and still have) great friends who I loved hanging out with, so didn't see the point in persuing relationships if I knew deep down they weren't going to work for me.
Then I bumped into an acquaintance who I hadn't seen for years at a gig. Stayed round his the following night and have been with him ever since! Like many have said, we just 'get' each other. We both thought our senses of humour were pretty 'out there' but quickly realised they matched perfectly. He challenges me, which no-one had ever done before and I liked that. And, a bit like me, absolutely nothing fazes him!
Neither of us wanted to get married when we first me, both favouring a 'big party' instead. But this changed as we grew to love each other and he proposed last December! All these feelings are a first for both of us, we're learning together and support each other when we don't know how to handle them!
He's an incredibly special person (I won't go into details on here to ensure I remain anonymous!) - his been through some hard times but has made the most of them, and then some. He's told me many tend to 'give him an easy ride' because of this and loves the fact I never did. I love the fact he doesn't have a stupid fragile ego to need to be treated like that. Another reason why it just works!
And he has the most amazing arms and shoulders in the world, which also helps...
