Is your SO the culmination of your dreams in a mate?

[Toecutter]

Mine is.

Like I told her, way back before she got a road name, it was like I was staring into the mirror, pondering my existence and the meaning of it all, and suddenly, the mirror vanished and she was on the other side, doing the same thing before her mirror vanished, leaving us both looking at each other and the answer to one of the mysteries of life.

That's also part of how she ended up with the "Eve" handle. There's some supporting evidence to the "not an accident" theory of our meeting, but I won't go into that just yet....

Then, I wandered out into the garage, and there sat my FJR!

:yahoo:

Change your name to Adam and stay away from the apples.

 

[Ric in Sac]

Mine too. I have been blessed.

 

[kaitsdad]

Yep.

She was 19, I was 23 when we met. We both knew right off.

This August will be 29 years.

 

[Scab]

Yes. Even my earliest memories were a desire for this. Even when I could not yet explain or define it, this is what I was always looking for.

It is good to be me.

 

[Joe2Lmaker]

Today is not a good day for me to answer that.

Edit: Neither of us would say that we've found "True Love".

We've been together for 18 years and married for almost 13.

"opposites attract" is certainly true in our case.

I'm crazy about her and she makes me crazy.

 

[FJR@DTS]

Yes, Absolutely :clapping: We've only been married 9 years this April, but I'm looking forward to however long we will be given (till death do us part). In fact most men that I really admire will be quick to tell you that one of the reasons they are able to have the impact they do is because they married way outside their league. My wife is a gift and a blessing. She makes me want to be a better person. Love is a verb.

Nah, mine was slow in the corners. Looking for a newer, faster model this spring. She was kinda like my Electra Glide, cumbersome, slow, and a never ending expense. Took her for a 15 year test drive though.

 

[SPORT]

Married up comes to mind.

My wife is my True Companion (TC) which originated from Marc Cohn's song.

Though it has not been a smooth 15yrs, it has surely been worth every minute of it.

Too long to discuss here, but I agree with above in that there is someone above directing our paths so that we could meet. Our story is undeniable in that regards.

In short, I am a lucky man!!!!!!!

 

[Wolfhound]

I'm in the opposites attract catagory and we Love each other very much. It's my third try & my last , we'll never part. Married over 12 years & I have my first child, A 5 year old Boy !

 

[wfooshee]

I was 40 when I started seeing her, I was never married before, never found one that was bottom-line worth the vows.

Jan and I have known each other since we were kids. I grew up friends with her brother, she was friends with my sisters. We went out a couple of times in college, both of us at Auburn, but it never came to much. I mean, dude, it's my best friend's sister! Besides, her dad scared the bejeezus out of me.

Well she went out west, married, had some offspring, and her crack-head drunkard low-life husband finally got what was coming to him, and she left while he was incarcerated. (If we could get what he owes her for child support, we could pay off our house. Hell, we could pay it off, and buy one twice the size and pay that one off!) I knew none of this at the time, had lost touch. Ran into her in town in '97, found out she was avail... I mean single, and we went out. Married and bought the house January '99.

So: I've known my wife since she was 9, we've been married almost 10 years, and we're grandparents twice. (Well, she is; none of that was my fault!)

 

[El Toro Joe]

Yes, she let me get the FJR last year...this April it will be 20 years

 

[Pjturbo]

We've been married only 47 years so I couldn't answer just yet. Check with me in another 20 years.

Really old Phil

 

[FJRMGM]

married thirty one years in July - I'm sure some of it was even happy.

 

[irq77]

I'm going on 9 years with the married thing and I can't imagine life without...

 

[TriggerT]

I'm married? Oh, is that who that lady is who keeps giving me work to do. Next your going to tell me the little kids are mine too.........

 

[Duff]

I married my best friend. That lasted 14 years. We're still best friends after knowing each other over 22 years...

...I wonder what's next?

 

[FastJoyRide]

She is the wind beneath my wings and the reason that I've become the man that I am. (that's praise for the good stuff, not blame for the bad!) I have never let a day go by that I haven't told her that she is my dream girl and that I love her to my very core. Fortunately she seems to be afflicted with some kind of perceptual problems and seems to think that I'm pretty wonderful too.

I met her when I was in 3rd year university and married her 2 days after I wrote my final exams a year later. My parents were horrified that we were marrying so young and were sure it could never work out. May 13 will be 36 years for us and we've been blessed with 3 wonderful sons (all with higher education, jobs, and wives and none living at home!) and they've in turn given us 2 beautiful grandchildren (so far).

Sylvia and I leave tomorrow AM for our final snowmobling adventure of this Winter in BC's beautiful Monashee Mountains, then we can start planning our Summer riding adventures in earnest. NAFO and 3 Flags are the two big ones booked so far, but there will be many more.

Thanks for starting this thread Toe. You and I are lucky dogs, and I'm happy to see that so many others think they are too!

 

[snikr]

I'll be married 32 years this July. So far so good as she LOVES riding bikes and has put up with me all those years. What more can I ask for?
