    We met in Feb 2001. Dh was living in NZ at the time but was due to move to Syd March 2001.
    So, we met when I was 15 and he was 18 (moved over on his 19th Birthday)
    Started dating a month later. We lived 5 hours apart so did the long distance thing until I finished my HSC at the end of 2002.
    I moved to Sydney the day after finishing my HSC and lived with friends as DH at the time didn't want to live together until we were married.

    About 2004 DH had a meltdown and wasn't sure if I was what he wanted so broke up with me for about 6 months. I moved back home and told him if he wanted me back he knew where I lived and had allot of work to do to win me back.

    After 6 -8 months of him visiting CONSTANTLY, phone calls, apologies, etc etc, I gave into his charm (and the fact I NEVER stopped loving him) and moved back to sydney.
    We moved in together at the begining of 2005 found out 2007 we were expecting number 2, got engaged when I was 5 months pg, married this year (2009) and found out 3 days before the wedding we were expecting number 2.

    All in all we have now been together for just over 8 years. Yes, we have had MAJOR ups and downs and all the time i have never stopped loving him and continue to fall more and more in love each day (even if he can't clean the bathroom properly LOL) I still continue to learn more about him and him about me, i don't think that will ever change and that is why I love being with him.

    Dh and I met Jan 14, started courting March 11, got engaged April 5 and got married August 4, all in the same year. Needless to say, our parents weren't impressed with the timing, but both sets have now said we make a good couple

    I agree about the milestones different couples have to go through. I attempted suicide not long after we were married, DH was in a truck accident the day before our engagement party, we were so broke for our first year of marriage....then we've had to deal with infertility as well as my recurring depression and anxiety - my mum said to me recently that she was surprised DH not only stayed, but coped so well when I hit bottom. She had doubts about him before that, but now they're gone

    i have know DH since i was 15 , he took me out on a date when i was 17 , worst most lameo date ever .

    went over seas 2002 but still thought about him even tho i didnt want to

    after heaps of knock backs from me i finally got the guilts and my mu made me ask him out "just for drinks " as id been so rude to him ( didnt think he was my type)

    so june 2004 i asked him out ( i was 19)together for 5 months before we got engaged , moved in together after 3mths .

    we were engaged 16mths before we got married in 2006 ( i was 21,8 wks pg with a planned baby )

    been together 6.5 years , married 4 yrs this march !!

    all up known him for 10 yrs and never once considered him as my soul mate , not with out our ups and downs either . but he sticks by me all the time , he is my hero :love:
