My mom and dad were a blind date and got engaged 3 months after starting their relationship. Mom was engaged to another guy before, but he was killed in an accident. So she did her thing for a while, then mutual friends set her and my dad up. It was perfect from the beginning. 27 years, 2 kids, 3 dogs, 2 houses later...still together and still in love.

In my own *personal* experience...Pat and I clicked right away. We had a "friends" period because of our age difference, so we weren't "official" for about 4 months after meeting. But we got very close very fast. We met at the right point in our lives and helped each other immensely. Our relationship is pretty atypical, and I think it worked only because of how the two of us are as *individuals*. I KNOW it wouldn't work for 99.9 per cent of people, but I'm so damn happy that we are that .1 %.

I'm probably the other 99.9% .

I think you're 0.1% of something else I think is too nasty to post on GC.

That's my mother and father. Seriously. Blind date, 3 months, marriage for over 30 years. Awesomeness.
