6. Starting a Friendship and Relationship

When my husband and I met/started dating I was a freshman and he was a senior. I had never seen him before but one day at lunch my friends and i where sitting by a set of doors in the school and one of our other friends walked in and introduced us to his cousin. Him and I caught each other staring a couple of times while we were sitting there talking. From just seeing him i knew right then that i needed to get to know him I knew there was something special about him. Well the next day by the end of school we had ended up dating so we started our friendship and our relationship all at once. A year and a half after we started dating he left for the army which was a tough time but we made it thru. The 3 years and 6 months after starting dating we got married. Now we have two wonderful children. We have been together for 10 years and married for almost 7 years and still in love like were back in the beginning . Everyone told us we were making a mistake and we would never make it and here we are today still going strong.
