Dear Friends, Some of you might be married. Some of you having a GF or BF. Some of you would have had more than one such relationships. How did you fall in Love with your partner? In my case, I have known her for 4 years and we were working together in the same organisation. We were very good friends but never thought of becoming lovers. Once I completed my degree I decided to leave that organisation and that was the time I understood that I am in love with her. She too liked me and we fell in love and got married 2 years back. That's my story in short. What about you? Share with us if you don't mind.

I do have a boyfriend. We met through my sister, he was my sister's ex boyfriend friend. We became friends for a year. But before we end up together, we both had BF and GF. He supposed to court me before my ex-BF but things got together quickly. When My ex-BF and I broke up and he and his GF have a rocky relationship... 3 months of being single, and during that 3 months, we are getting closed. He called me everyday and talking for hours... texting each other, we go out and eat. Then he called me up and told me he was falling for me and I told him I felt the same way. We formally in a relationship the following day because we see each other and we are 5 years and counting in our relationship... That's the summary of our love story...

Never think like that. I am also not a handsome person but someone liked me. Many girls liked me for my qualities. Not for the apearance. One girl loved me not for my apearance but for me. And she is my wife. Same with you

When I fell in love, a lot of things which I used to believe in changed. I met him from an old profile I posted in Lovehappens.com. In that time, I just tried, and then I left that site, and then suddenly after a year, I received an email, we started emailing each other, chat every night, started calling, frequent sms. And when he got the chance, he came here to see me. We met, saw each other, and everything was perfect. In that time I knew and I felt that he is the one. There was this ocean in between us when we started and he crossed it. This is how I realized and felt that he is real. Also, even at the time we haven't seen each other yet, everything feel so right. We think alike, we share the same thoughts, and we are both willing to compromise about our differences. I fell in love with his honesty and his truthfulness. I fell in love with his eyes, his smile and his sincere care for me and my family. I fell in love with him, and his kind heart. I knew that I am in love, when I am seeing myself growing old beside him. I know that I fell in love with him when he told me he love me from his heart and then I felt tears of sincerity from his eyes touched my cheeks. I knew that I am in love with him when I felt scared of ever losing him... and then, this year we got married... everything feel so right. Now, I am truly happy and I know that we both love each other dearly. In this time, everyday... He is making me realize different definitions about love... true love that in unconditional.

So it started from Cyber Love. Although it was something dangerous I find that you have found your True Love beyond the ocean. I am happy for you and I wish you all the best.

Yes, I love the female coworker as you. I knew I love her since we had worked together for about 2 years. She is elegant and beautiful, merely a glance of her can made me happy all the day, and I fall into uncontrolable love. Although I didn't know how to make a girl happy, my heart told me how to do every thing I should.

i'm married. it was a slow progression in my case because i was in denial for quite a period. the relationship between me and my now husband started off rocky and really confusing since i probably fell for him before even meeting him. i talked to him on the 13th of feburary because i was having 'guy issues' with my ex. i initial called to talk to our mutual friend who was to involved in video games to listen so he passed the phone to him. we talked well past my problem into general things and about how wer are personally and discovered we think alike, before we knew it it was the 14th and we wished each other valentines day. i few days latter we met and i saw him and instantly wanted to hug him because of his kindness. at that time i didn't think much of a romantic relationship would happen because his friend was courting me. needless to say, it didn't work out between me and his friend and that began a whole back and fourth thing between us. since i was planning to move away in a few months i didn't want to get attached and he didn't seem to want to let me go. in the end, i gave in when he 'wooed' me with our first kiss and it went on from there. before i graduated high school after a few months of us official dating, he asked me to marry him and said he would follow me to where i was move. he pretty much dropped everything and gave up what he had there to start a new with me in another state. around that time we found out i was pregnant with our first son, all the more reason he said to be married. we married a month before our son was born on his selected date or 2.2.2002

Well I have had some interesting ones where guys check me out just because of the way I walk or the way I carry myself but nothign substantial ever came out of these. I am convinced that I must remain single. I am currently talking to a guy. he is okay and all that. ALthough I have decided to give him a chance at my age I am still unsure if I want to. I am convinced that it is because I have been alone all these years so the interest or emphasis on that area of my life has lost its lustre. All I want to do is concentrate on my studies, my young people in the church and my child. So to answer your question I am like Tarzan before he found Jane!

I have been married for 4 years now. I met my husband in college. We were members of the same organization and we were moving around the same circle of friends. I have known him since sophomore years. He was too quiet and private while I was always the life of the party and I was always surrounded with friends. Nobody ever thought that he and I would hit it off. A few months before graduation, I had a problem with my thesis. For some reason, I couldn't run to my friends for help. Luckily, he (now my husband) was there to listen to me and help me out with my problem. I was able to finish my thesis in time to be able to graduate. We became close after that and fell in love later on. Everybody was so shocked because they couldn't believe we were together. We were such an odd couple back then. But, who would have thought? We hit it off well, been together for 5 years before we finally decided to get married. Now, we are on our fifth year and we have one lovely daughter.

I am very happy to hear your story. Some says that similar people should get together for an affair to succeed. But you have proved that is wrong. In fact you are a good example for many. All the best for the rest of your life.
