XH - I was 18, he was 21 when we met and started dating. I was 22, he 25 when we got engaged and then moved out together. We were both still living with our parents then. Took us another 3 years to actually get married and then 2 years to get divorced.

DH - we have been friends for 14 years now but both being in other relationships we never considered each other as partners. We actually started dating in Dec 05, a few months after XH & I broke up. I was resisting because I felt it was too soon after my break up, but couldn't resist and knew it was right. We were inseparable from then and he moved in with me 3 months later and fell pregnant 4 months after that. We got engaged in March this year and married in August. So we've been together just on 4 years all up. It has been the best 4 years of my life We are soul mates.
