The first time I saw my husband walking down the street, I thought....! I'm going to spend the rest of my life with him. There was something so sexy in the was he looked at me I thought I was going to melt right then and there. I still feel that way after twenty an some years. :)
How about you?

It was love at first sight for sure when he said ...Yes.
;0>
Of course, as I never had "the one" I'm not sure he really was but he was the closest thing to it that I've experienced in my life. I really miss him now.
This time with Terry it is so much different. I was dating a few different girls when I first started talking to Terry on the internet. From the beginning when i saw her profile I thought something was so very different about her than all of the others. I reached out to her and she resisted in some ways at first. Her reason for resistance was being hurt so many times over. I Persisted because I think I saw her heart from the very beginning!
The picture with the wamest brown eyes or eyes of any color that I had ever seen didn't hurt me in the wanting to pursue factor either. Again I think in seeing that picture and those eyes I saw a heart like I had never seen before. We talked on the phone after a few internet IM's and that first converstaion of more than four hours was helping even more so in confirming my feelings. Now being a guy of course I continued to date a couple of other girls but in many ways those dates just didn't feel right anymore. Terry and I talked more and more and finally she agreed to meet me.
We met at a nice cafe in NJ and I walked up to her as she got out of her car. I finally had the chance to look directly into those beautiful eyes and something in my just flipped. Those eyes definitely led to a fantastic heart! That date was fabulous and after dinner neither one of us wanted to go home. It was near 11 PM at that time as we had sat and talked and laughed and laughed up until then and closed the Cafe. Since neither one of us are really "bar" people and that is really all there is to do at 11 at night (well there are other things but neither one of us were ready for that and in no way did I want to attempt it and maybe blow what I felt was developing and was so so different) I walked her to her car and she said to me do you want to sit in the car and talk. I did not want to go home or away from her in any way so that is what we did.
The conversation and the laughter continued to come so easily that I felt that I had known her all my life and at the same time felt that this was what I was missing all of my life. We talked until about 1:30 in the morning and then finally it happened. I leaned over and I kissed her and that kiss was so different. We kissed and touched for a while and yet still felt so comfortable with each other in what was now a new phase. After about another 1/2 hour or so of kissing and talking we reluctantly decided we had to get home.
We went our separate ways that night but on the way I called her and we talked some more as we drove to our homes. I think part of me just wanted to talk to her more until she got home so I knew that she got there safely. I didn't want anything to happen to her and since it felt almost too good to be true I was afraid that it would. Over the next days we talked more and agreed to get together again that weekend.
Now me back to being the guy that I am came in here. I had two dates already set up with other girls for that weekend but did not even want to think about not being with Terry. Both of these girls that I had dates set up with I had seen before and they were both nice girls. I didn't want to hurt them in any way but i also couldn't see myself being with them while in all honesty I was thinking about Terry. One of those relationships had gotten a little "involved" and when I told her in a totally honest way she was not a happy camper! I told her that I was sorry but that she just had to understand that I needed to follow my heart. The other one was less involved but she was not all too happy with my honesty either. She approached in a different way though, her approach was I am better for you than she is and I am still interested if you are. I tried to let her down easily without hurting her but I knew there was no way that she was right about who was better for me and I also knew that I was interested in even thinking about that as a possibility!
That weekend was great and we spend every minute that we could together and I knew even more that she was "the one"! That was over 1-1/2 years ago and we are still going strong. We are now engaged but for many reasons have not set a date yet. there are so many other factors taht are beyond our control to that but we both know that we want to be together and we want to do it right for all involved. I miss her when i am not with her and I see those beautiful eyes, fmiss that loving touch and long for that incredibly warm and loving heart every minute that we are not together. Some day we will be beside each other every night and every part of me knows that is the right thing for both of us!!
Sorry for the "novel length" comment but there really wasn't any other way to put it! Just to say that I knew it was right like I have never known anything else in my life was even close to so right just didn't seem to be enough to sum it all up!
I knew it was him for moment one. We were set up on a blind date by a friend. When he walked into the room, he just took my breath away. I felt so comfortable around him.
