Yeah, I was new to the area and was looking to meet some friends, no commitment because I was ACTUALLY enjoying being single at that point in my life. Hubby had a *minimum* 5 year plan too. Didn't work. According to him, we were supposed to date for at least 1 year before we moved in together, live together one year before we got engaged, be engaged for at least a year before we got married, be married for at least one year before we discussed kids. I met my hubby on December 1, 2009. We've been married 13 months and our daughter is 12 weeks laugh out loud

We never rushed anything, it just happened at a rate we were comfortable.



Stability is nice, I agree Smilie Plus, I have a great hubby!!

I think I just realize I am getting old. laugh out loud
aw, love it when you guys share your stories. it warms my heart and makes me feel all nice and fuzzy Smilie

I like the halter top. Just wish it came in different colors. I think I'm too old to wear snake skin. I don't wear leopard either (Except for bras)
Paperbag i'm old too. the one i tried on was red, and i didn't want to do the black. snakeskin must be new since i saw it online for the first time last night.

dh and i met in college laugh out loud we're the same year, same major, but we weren't in many classes together. we were classmates freshman in badminton class , but we ignored each other. we only remembered we went to the same badminton class when we became a couple. i actually give him a hard time for ignoring my beauty back then Rofl2

i'm lazy to go back to the actual post you answered my gift return question, but you think it would work... checking return as gift, and filling out ship info different from bill info portion?

your story beats mine by looong shot laugh out loud

i think online dating is cool. it saves a lot of time. and speed dating is so practical.

however meeting up with an online stranger for Turtle is creepy.

tizzy and alvs - crochet back wedge tee [express.com] for your consideration.
I think I'll do one of each color, black and purple. Funny thing is I have this exact shirt that I bought in some store last season except it has a neat blue pattern to it. The tag is not Express either but the crochet back and shape are exactly the same. nod

Quote from kurips :
i ordered this [express.com]. i tried a different print in the store and it is cute. the back is super cute but i'm planning to wear it under a blazer or cardigan though laugh out loud
Hot! I like snake skin. I think that is okay in DH's book. He liked the snakeskin mini and wanted me to get it. Snake skin okay - leopard old lady gaudy. Dontknow

Quote from leftie :
I'm in my 20s and lived in NJ all my life.
I think leopard (and other animal prints) can be worn tastefully. IF I wear a print (any print, really), then I would probably downplay the accessories.
I agree. I planned to wear it with a high wasted black skirt or black jeggings and cute pumps. He will just have to come around to it. Wink


Quote from leftie :
With that said, I can see how some people are averse to animal prints. Especially when we have characters like Snooki wearing prints and then people associate that whole mess with "regular" Jerseyans. : facepalm:
Don't forget the lovely ladies on the not at all fake show Jerseylicious.<----- That is sarcasm Teehee

I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar ........ when I met himmmmmm. Not just an 80's hit also a true story. Beer Okay it was a restaurant but then the song doesn't fit as nice. Teehee

Quote from annicus :
if you want an alternative to oil or butter for cooking, try avocado. i have yet to try this, but i have heard that it tastes the same but it's good for you! avocado has the same texture as butter so i would think it would bake like butter. lmk if you try it!! (i haven't yet kuz i have a lot of butter at home... yes, i am unhealthy Blush) oh, the only thing is, it may turn some of your cake/etc green. but i know you love green so this shouldn't be an issue for you! laugh out loud
Avocado is sooo good scrambled into eggs! I'm eating some right now Eat

Aww I like your story! I think some people are lucky and even though things might not go according to plan, they work out great anyway. Glasses2
