There is always the chance of getting hurt. I truly believe you have to put yourself out there and risk getting hurt in order to find love.

MrH0kie and I will celebrate our 4th anniversary in December. We married young, but in love. We are still in love. Things are rocky at times due to his health, but we stick together. I know he'll always have "my back" so to speak.

I knew the moment I met him, that he was the one. We met on the internet and talked for almost a year before we met. I was so comfortable with him, before I even met him. When we finally met, I knew. It may sound cheesy, but I had dreams of my "soul mate"/husband and I could always see him, but not his face. After I met my husband, I could see his face...and it was his voice I'd heard in my dreams. Cheesy, but true.

I do know if you go into a marriage thinking about divorce, it will have a hard time taking off. I don't remember where I heard this...Dr. Phil maybe, but I heard/read somewhere that marriages last because the couple never falls out of love with each other at the same time.

Sure, there are times where he makes me want to tear my hair out...but I know I am no better. No matter what, you have to be willing to work on things. They will not always be perfect.

I also heard to make sure you agree on money, kids, and where you'll live. I would also be honest about any mental conditions. As that is the main thing people fight about.

I dunno. Just my $0.02.
