I had a feeling on the first date. It just seemed natural. We never really felt in a rush for anything, we knew it would just happen. We knew the same people, had similar interests, and similar values/attitudes towards life. We have a similar goofy sense of humor and we're both gigantic nerds. It is a cliche, but it was like finding a piece of me that I never knew was missing...that if I was 100% by myself, I was 150% when I was with him. After about two years, we started just saying to each other "Hey, can we get married?"...."Yeah, sure" or, "when we get married, can we..." on a regular basis, only partially kidding.
And any guy who is willing to do long distance for 5+ years of a 7 year relationship, AND be questioned by the FBI in regards to your supposed disappearance is DEFINITELY a keeper.
Yesterday marked 4 months married for us, and it is even more awesome than being engaged or dating.
