Before:
That two-faced, cowardly... ugh! I should have left him years ago, instead of taking him in every single time. To think the time I've wasted on that good for nothing jack***! And then for him to dump me like that - I should have been the one doing the dumping! But you know what Virva? You're done with him. Done. Final. And you are glad!Oh then why do I feel so bad? Awkward, lonely and weary... I know! I need a change of scene. Just some time off.
Hmm, a house-swap wouldn't be bad... There's this woman I met on online, Lori. She's looking to do a house swap too... After:
When I arrived at Lori's house, I came across so many inconveniences. Dear my, did I miss my good ole' villa! But hey, I wanted change, I got it. However, on my first night there I got a visitor. Marcus Rhodes. Apparently Lori had a brother she had forgotten to mention. So, since he was rather amiable and quite pleasant, we shared a dinner and then a bottle of wine... and somehow we ended up sharing the bed too - lets just say his looks were hardly discouraging. We decided it would be a one night stand. Not a relationship. Not even a fling. A one night stand.
But...
Who said you can control desire? Or chemistry? Who said you can control a blossoming love from blooming? Well, if anyone ever said you can, they were mistaken. Our one night stand turned into a two night stand and so forth. He was not like my ex. He was a whole new species of man! I fell head over heels for him, and I don't regret it. We had the most wonderful - magical - nights the stars had seen. Marcus and I were serious. Thats when some smal practical difficulties came into question. We live miles away from each other, what would happen when I left?

Course he wasn't to happy with it all, but you just gotta follow your heart I told him, and mine's in Alabama.I ended up stayin' with Tony who after all these years of knowin' him somehow got a doctor's license!

Your partner’s age when married? 22I was together with this man, Anton. We were really serious and all, but instead of asking me to marry him, he dumped me! In front of all our friends! My best friend Zamanatha decided that we would go to vegas to forget about Anton and everything else. There I met a horrible man. At least I thought he was horrible back then. All of us become very drunk and I can't really say that I remember anything from the night. But when I woke up I found out that I had married this horrible man! And as if wasn't enough, we won the jackpot! We were told that we had to be married for six months before we could split the money. Married for six month with HIM? I couldn't believe it!We tried all sorts of things to make the other one divorce. Nothing did work. But during that time we fell in love and when the six month were over we couldn't believe that we actually tried to get divorced before! We now live together and we do everything together. Oskar is my best friend, mu husband and my everything.

Your partner’s age when married? 26_____________________________________________________________________After not having much luck dating, my mother Anna decided to take actions into her own hands. She had always wanted me to marry "well off". She entered me in an online dating website, and set me up to meet a respectable man, Ryan Cooper. Ryan was the son of a successful lawyer, and was a lawyer himself. He was very nice, but definetely not my type. I was not happy with my mom for trying to force me into love. It was definetely not her buisness! I decided no matter what she did, I would see who I wanted to.While dating Ryan, I met William (an architect) through a mutual friend. He was funny, sweet, romantic, everything I could ask for. I introduced him to my mother, who was reluctant to approve. William had married once before when he was 18. He had a son, Gabriel James (Gabe) with his previous wife at age 20. His wife died in a car accident when Gabe was only two.Eventually, Ryan and William found out about each other, and I was forced to make a choice. I chose to stay with William instead of Ryan. My mother was angry at first, then realized her actions were wrong and eventually accepted William. Ryan was definetely mad. I didn't blame him, what I did was wrong, but I felt as though I didn't have a choice. He didn't know that it was really my mother that chose him. He was no longer in my life, and I hoped to never see him again.I ajusted well to life with Gabe! He is a great kid and a sweetheart! I would love to have him as a son! I look foreward to someday becoming his mother!!

When I first found out that I was being deported I thought quickly and decided to marry my assistant. After talking to my immigration officer he gave me 4 days, before an interview to see if we were in love for real. Antonio told me that he was flying out to Alaska to see his family for the weekend. I reluctently came. At first people were shocked that we were getting married but then his mother had an Idea, for us to get married there. At the wedding I realized my true feelings for him and decided not to ruin his life. I flew back to NY and started to pack. But then Antonio appeared and asked me to marry him! I was going to reject, but after he told me how much he loved me; i said yes. We decided to get married in 2 months (so i wouldn't get deported). After 2 weeks it was obvious we were in love..... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Proposal_(film)

You, Bea, are secretly in love with your best friend, James Miller. James goes away on a business confrence in Scotland and you decide to tell him you love him when he gets back. When James gets home, you go to see him and find out he has a surprise for you; he has fallen in love with a girl in Scotland named Emily Starr and they are getting married.
He has even asked you to be his Best Man! Well for one thing I can't be his Best Man if I'm in love with him. :/How do you feel about this? Terrible! All I said was "Oh, nice!" when I he told me.How do you win over James heart and convince him not to marry Emily?It was 10 days before the wedding and I finally decided to tell him to see if there was one last chance he would give up Emily and marry me instead. So, I went to see him. We talked for a while then the conversation got boring and he asked me "What was it you came over here for anyway?" Then I knew I had to tell him. So here's how I started out "Well, I just wanted to talk to you." I said. "No, it must be more than that." He said. "Your right." "I am?" "Yeah you are. I wanted to tell you something before you got married." "Oh? And what would that be?" And here's how I told him I loved him. "I just wanted to say. I love you" I said it in a whisper so he didn't hear me at first. "What?" "I said. I just wanted to say I love you!"
He looked shocked! He had been drinking iced tea at the time and he spit it out and said "WHAT?!?!" then he just stared at me with his mouth wide open, after a while he said "why didn't you tell me before?" "Well, I was going to after you got back from Scotland but...you told me about her ." then he surprised me with "I thought you didn't love me. You never said anything...you...you..." he sighed then said, "I love you too." after that we talked it over and he broke it off with Emily, much to her dismay, and we are now engaged.P.S. I have no idea what movie it's from.:)

KearaJaneI had been in love with my boss, the editor of my newspaper, for years. I’d never been able to tell him how I actually felt and didn’t want to do anything stupid. When my sister Sophia came into town, I told her there was I guy I liked and she said I should go for it! So, with the intention of telling Peter how I felt, I brought Soph to a party for moral support. I went to go get drinks and, when I came back, I found her already talking to Peter (she had no idea what guy I was actually in love with.). They were talking and laughing and started dancing and flirting, so I took a quick exit and went home.That first night, Peter and Sophia stayed out really late and enjoyed themselves. For the next three weeks, I watched in agony while my sister dated my secret crush. The heartbreaking moment for me was when they announced their engagement at family dinner-I nearly fainted! They were so in love and I was so upset! As I began to plan their wedding (which would happen in a short month!) I was given the help of the newpaper writer who was covering their wedding profile. His name was Jack Taylor.From the start, Jack knew something was up with me. As he interviewed my sister and boss, I did all the wedding details. We talked while doing the wedding registry and, while he was increasingly annoying, he finally got the story out of me. I was in love with my sisters fiancce and planning their wedding. Jack was cute, and did have a way with words. As we further planned the wedding together, I realized I had had a crush on Peter; with Jack, I was falling in love!Sophia and Peter did end up getting married and Jack and I were there, him photographing for the paper and I keeping everything in order. That night, we confessed our love for one another and agreed we’d start dating and not rush things. Though, I know, that night was the night we both figured out we’d be marrying each other in the near future.DH: Jack William Taylor (26) (writer)
DW: Keara Jane Keenings (24) (writer)Would you be open to.......
Adoption? yes
Multiples yes, no more then two sets (unless all sets are twins-then, any number of sets) and any number of babies per birthWhat age would you like to get married? 25
