@Mrs. High Heels: @scg00387: Thank you
I now get what people mean when they say don't get married at 20

@LindsayInNY: happy anniversary!
We're only 6 weeks into our marriage, so I'd be in big trouble if I was regretting this already! He's the best.

@Mrs. Pen: your honesty is so refreshing, you are one of my faves.
I have never for a second regretted getting married, but I started dating DH at 29 and got married at 31 so I had a to. Of time to just do me and put myself first.

@plantains: I wish everyone had at least one period of time where they got to do that before settling down. Being independent really teaches you so much about what you are looking for in a partner. when you've been responsible for it all, once someone does enter your life, you really appreciate what they bring to the relationship & the weight they take on. I met DH when I was, for the first time, on my own & alone. I'm so glad I had that time, but I wish it'd been longer.

@Mrs. Pen: @plantains: @mrs. bird: I was 31 when I met DH. At that point, I didn't have a list of what I wanted in a mate, but I definitely had a list of what I didn't want!

@LMOG47: I read, in my Phoebe voice, "He's her lobster!"
Made my day:)

@plantains: this is exactly how i feel. DH and i met at 27 and got married at 29 (RIGHT before my 30th haha) and it makes a huge difference to me. We both agree things wouldn't be as perfect as they are if it all happened in our early 20s.
I am extremely independent, and never viewed marriage as something necessary to my life - in fact, i wasn't sure it was what I wanted at all. But meeting DH changed my mind 100% on that, and i have not had one second of regret about marrying him. If I'd known all along that marriage was going to be like it is with him, i'd never have been so against it in the first place

@MsLipGloss: I had just kicked a very long term, less than awesome for me (not to say he's a bad person, we just weren't good together) partner out. My list of what I wanted at the time was: no one, I wanna be alone! But DH was super sweet, and was all, 'but what if the right thing was right in front of you?' and my mom was all, 'if you don't give it a chance, he's not gonna hang around waiting, and you'll be stuck wondering, what if he was the one & I didn't even give it a fair shot'. I still wasn't going there... But my power went out, and I needed help lighting this emergency lantern... So I called my personal trainer... And he spent the night. And we lived happily ever after
haha. I was almost 25. Knowing what you don't want makes narrowing down the list easier!
