[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yep. Met when I was 35. Engaged a year later. Knew it by the second date. I had several very dramatic, intense and at times toxic relationships in my 20's. Was happy and fulfilled and single after that for 5 years. So, I was in a good place when I met my husband. He was just so solid, nice, and normal (and I mean that as a compliment). I always think that I just had to grow up and get "healthy" before I could have a substantive good healthy relationship. It just clicked for us, but not in that crazy "you are my soul mate and I will die without you" kind of way I've had in the past![/quote]

Similar story for me.  We were both fine being single and had our own lives, friends, homes, hobbies, etc.  Weren't looking for someone to complete our respective selves.  I had finally gotten to a point where I didn't look at men as a project, and didn't try to think I could overlook terrible flaws, behavior or treatment, and was finally able to casually date and not view everyone I met as a potential husband.  Ironic that is when I met my future husband, I wasn't expecting him to be the one.

Something else interesting is that we both know and admit that if we had met even a year earlier we wouldn't have been right for each other.  But timing is everything.[/quote]
