        Wow Ima, that's terrific!

        Um, but isn't it a little reckless to get divorced and the engaged again so quickly? I'm certainly glad it worked out, but can you tell us what happened that made you transition so quickly?

          When I met my husband, (it was a blind date), it was love at first sight. He felt the same way. We never spent a day or night apart after that.We knew that first week that we would get married. (It's been almost 30 years, so it must be a good decision)

            Ima, did it take a lot of pleading for you to go on this blind date? Did you say after you and your 1st husband got separated that you weren't interested in meeting anyone else?

            I met my husband on the internet. I was on Compuserve signing off for good and my future husband had signed on to Compuserve for just one day to find a map of an island his people are from. I visited this room that my future husband was in to say goodbye to some of my friends and my girl friend, who was the hostess of this room, asked me to say hello to this guy. After pleading from her (I had just broken up with someone and didn't want to be bothered) I spoke and that started a wonderful friendship that led into a wonderful marriage! Eight wonderful years now! I do believe in predestination. Some things are just meant to happen and will happen when the time is right.

              My dh & I have been together 7yrs & married for 3 yrs & have 2 kids together I call it my second time around although I was really never married before I already had a child with someone else. I brought more into the marriage all the way around my daughter my houses & my savings the only thing dh brought was some debt. I didnt do a prenup I know bad bad decision on my part but I am sure we were meant to be even though he drives me crazy with bad money management sometimes I am sure it was just meant to be. I am positive we will be together forever. BUt I do regret sometimes the prenup but I have lots of paperwork & proof of what I brought into the marriage

              We met by accident but threw a friend when I met dh I tried getting my best friend to go out with him she wanted nothing to do with him so I felt bad for him & went out with him.

                No pleading at all, I was ready for this date. He had a part time girlfriend too. I realized that when I married the first time, it was not really love!!
                When I met my husband, it was love at first sight. We sat up all night talking. I asked him to a wine tasting party the next night, but he already had a date.
                He went home, broke his date the next day and came to take me to the party. We were never apart after that.
                I even learned how to eat left handed so we could hold hands and eat dinner.

                    we will be married for 32 years.... we married in 1974...that is why we have so much stuff.....loll.........we have learned it goes from passionate to compassionate as the years past... and to overlook everything and ignore the impossible... i handle all the financial matters.. i wish i could handle everything else.. building, hiring, firing, etc.. spouse is too judgemental in some cases.. but, we even each other out, i guess... i don't know any other way.. it is like we are still learning about each other....

                        Single....still. GGRRRR

                        What to be married, just haven't found the right one...or he hasn't found me or....something like that....

                        Rather be single than marry someone just for the sake of being married....but I have family members who think otherwise.....gggrrrrr

                                Divorced.

                                I don't think I want to get involved again anytime soon though, except for the "right" person... then maybe I'll make an exception... just one last time.
