A month had gone by since our first date. We had been spending a lot of time together--but we hadn't kissed, or even held hands. I was starting to wonder if maybe Jeremy just wanted to be friends. I liked him, and I wanted more than that--but if all he wanted was a friendship, that was O.K. with me, because he had become a good friend over that month. I ended up, as often happens, talking with anaother friend about it--a mutual friend of ours. Then one night he reached out and took my hand, and my heart danced. A few nights lator I found out why he had waited so long. He started the conversation with "I talked with Elaine" (the mutual friend)...oh no, i thought...Then he said "I've gone out with other girls, and it never lasted long. The reason I waited so long was that I wanted us to be best friends first, before we started a relationship." He paused. "Do you want to start a relationship with me?" "Yes" I said, and started to shake. "What's wrong?" he asked. "Nothing." I answered, with no way to explain the joy in my soal. We've been going out now for over two years, and I still know I found "the one."

My parents met in a plane crash. They have been together ever since. They were bumped on the head by God, and found that they were meant for each other.

My old boyfreind passed away a year and some months ago. But before he died I got to take him to the shore for a week. Because he never had enough money to go when he was younger it was his first time and the whole week he made me breakfast and dinner, washed my hair for me put suntan lotion on and lotion after the shower. It was the most romantic week I ever had because I was his queen all week long without any hassle or arguments!

About eight years ago, I met Paul on a BBS. Ever since then we've been penpals and recently more than friends. When I first met him I knew that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him, but I got scared. I turned away from him and I thought I had gotten rid of him. Some time later, he called me and we began to write to each other. He joined the Navy and I followed him all over the Mid-East and Australia. We shared everything with each other. He told me about his girlfriend and I would tell him how unsuccessful I was with the boys. Soon, it came time for him to come home from the Navy. I was scared again. I didn't know what to expect when he came back. We had stated that we wanted to be with each other and I called him my boyfriend. I told him I wasn't sure of what I wanted. Paul thought that I was turning away from him again. He told me of how hurt he was the first time and now it was the same pain as before. I thought that I had lost him, but he came back to me again. The past few months have been wonderful, yet confusing at the same time. My father died last year and Paul came into my life at a vary vulnerable time in my life. Now, I've unconciously replaced the male-figure in my life from my father to Paul. I feel that I unfairly depend on Paul for this role-model. I'm constantly afraid that I will do something to make him leave. I know that Paul is the one I'm going to marry, but I'm constantly second-guessing myself. I love him.

One daymy boyfriend and I were at lunch, and he was eating a bag of pretzil sticks. Then he started laying the pretzels out on the table. Since he's a goof, I figured he was just messing around, so I turned away from him to talk with my friend. After a while he tapped me on the shoulder, and I turned around to see what he wanted. He had used the pretzels to sepll out "I LOVE YOU LAURA". I swear he's the sweetest guy on earth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
