Tag, baby!

I decided to post this questionnaire a friend emailed me, I think it's a good one...

About LOVE:

Where did you meet your husband?

We worked at the same Real Estate Brokerage & saw each other there. I was madly obsessed with him...He was the first guy I have ever had such a huge crush on that I was afraid to talk to him. I referred to him as "The Guy" and everyday I would tell my roommates all about "The Guy" that I was in love with, yet had never spoken to (pretty pathetic).

I guess he had noticed me too and was talking to his friend, Andy, about "The girl"! (woohoo)

Everyone at work always told me that I should get to know him because they "had a feeling we would like each other" and they told him the same thing. I tried on several occasions to talk to him, but I was so so so nervous. I knew he was much older, much cooler, much more mature etc. etc. etc....and I had no idea he would be interested in me.

I think he finally got up the courage and introduced himself to me one day. He told me his name and in my head I'm like ("ya, i know your name, what car you drive, when you come to work, when you leave, where you park etc. etc. etc) Although, I wasn't a stalker..I swear.

There was instant chemistry. The next day I was going out to lunch with co-workers and he had originally declined an invitation to join, but when I invited him (and therefor he realized I would be going) he decided to come (woohoo again)!

We went to Citrus Grill (this is one of the reasons it is our fav restaurant) and I experienced that cheesy feeling of it seeming like no one else was there. We talked the whole time. That day he walked me out to my car and we talked for another 2.5-3 hours in the parking lot. After we finally said goodbye, he called me on his way home to see if he could see me that night. It was that quick, we fell in love so so so fast.

What happened next?

I was saying goodbye to a missionary, so it took me a few months to let go of the missionary and really start dating G. Once we actually started dating, it was smooth sailing all the way to our marriage.

Where were you married?

What are three things about your spouse we would be surprised to find out?

1. He likes to shop! He will shop with me for pretty much anything. Esp. furniture and even clothes.
