Valentine's Link Up

Today I am linking up with  Sel @ Growing Laughing and Loving in Life


 1.) How did you meet your significant other?
      My husband and I met our first year at Messiah College.  I remember the first time we sat down and talked, I actually wrote it in my journal at the time (10 years ago).  I thought he was fascinating and very kind.

2.) What/where was your first date? 
      We did not have a first date.  We actually never really dated at all.  We were best friends for years before we realized we were in love.  We got married 3 months later.
        There is one day that sticks out in my mind though, a year or two before we got together.  We were alone on the 4th of July, most of our friends were back home with their families.  We went down to Harrisburg.  We shared a pitcher at one of our favorite spots and wandered down over the bridge to walk around city island.  We weren't holding hands, there was nothing romantic about it but I remember it felt good to be with him.  Just the two of us.

3.) What's your best relationship advice?  
      Be honest.  If you can't be honest about your feelings or your needs, there is a disconnect in the relationship that needs to be worked out.  My best advice is to never give up.

4.) What is your most embarrassing moment in front of your SO?
      This is tough because we were friends for so many years, I've done dozens of things I should be embarrassed about but never really was.

 5.) What most attracts you to your SO? 
       Ugh mushy stuff, I don't do well with mushy stuff.  Let's go with his smile.

6.) If a movie was made about your SO, what actor/superhero would play their part?
      Is Gerard Butler really tall?  I'm going to go with him, my husband is 6'5".  One of my nicknames for C is actually Hercules.
