Yes EBF,
It is true. There is an old thread somewhere called , "How and where did you meet your partner?" Where I tell about how Ted and I met. I don't know how to do the fancy little link thing or I would have, lol.
As to your question about how it feels? Well, neither one of us really know any different. I can't remember a time that he was not in my life in some way or another. Coming from a small town where everyone knows everyone else was a help...it just seemed that growing up our families seemed to interact more so than most. We were definitely friends before the hormones kicked in and we became the world to each other.
Neither one of us ever really dated anyone else. I know some will see this as a weakness in some ways, but to us we see it as a very special gift. We were able to make up our own rules as to how a relationship should be and lucky enough to grow and change at a pace the other could keep up with.
We have grown so interwined through the years with each other that it is like we are mirror images.
I know this probably all sounds a little sappy,
By the way...something that I don't tell most people we meet...I was 15 and Ted was 17 when we got married...and no, I was not pregnant, our first daughter was not born until two years later. Now 21 1/2 years later we are still going strong.
