December 13, 1980!!
That was the most romantic evening I have ever had... its the night I fell in love. It was a Christmas dance at school, I was a senior. There was a guy I knew from a year or so earlier, and I hated him,, he was so dang weird i thought cause he was always laughing and dancing, and I was so serious and reserved. Well, anyway, he had ask me out, and i said no, but at the dance, he was there, and ask me to dance. Since his sister was a friend of sorts, I said ok. I thought what harm can it do except to ruin my reputation as cool.... lol Well, it happened to be a country song they played, "Can I have this Dance" for the rest of my life,,,
anyways,, this guy, the very one I didnt like before,,, took me in his arms, and looked into my eyes,,, and I melted! <img src=icon_smile_blush.gif border=0 align=middle> I was not big on public displays of affection, but I stood there in the middle of that dance floor, and let this guy I didnt even know, kiss me, and I swear, as cheesy as it sounds, nothing else or nobody else was there,, just me and him, and then we danced. I fell in love, instantly, I knew he was the one for me forever.
Two weeks later, he proposed, and I accepted. I had to wait till I was 18 to tell my dad, so for 3 weeks we were secretly engaged. Then 8 months later we got married. August 1, 2002, we celebrated 21 years together.
That one magical evening almost 22 years ago, was the most romantic and wonderful evening I have ever had.
And he is still goofy, and crazy, I am still reserved and serious, but somehow, we are perfect together. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
We never lose the ones we love, we lose the person, but love never dies.
