I chose her because she was smart and fun and beautiful (not that the beauty matters much, but she is truly pretty), and because we clicked from the moment we met at recruitment! She still is all those things, and now our children play together and click just as well.
There are many nice things she's done for me over the years, but I particularly remember one night during my junior year when I went over to my boyfriend's house and he broke up with me. I called her sobbing to tell her I was going to be late for some meeting we had, and she pretty much knew what had happened. (This was before cell phones, so I was calling her from his phone with him sitting right there... no opportunity for giving her the blow-by-blow during the drive home.) Anyway, when I arrived later that night at the room I shared with her in the AXiD house, still sobbing pathetically, she had taken down all the boyfriend pictures, cards and assorted paraphernalia, cleared out the randomly acquired boyfriend clothes ... everything. She put it all in a box in the back of the closet that I didn't have to look through or at ever, if at all. And I didn't for a very long time!!
