Romantic Moments

• I had to share this since there was an opportunity to. Sixteen months ago I was in the middle of a six month long daily prayer for God to send the man He had for me into my life. One morning my car broke down.
  "God, " I ventured, " Maybe you didn't quite understand me...I asked for a man not a broken car!"
  I called a local shop in the town where I live that sends mechanics out to where your car is saving you a towing fee. They sent a guy right out. Several days later it broke down again and they sent the same guy back to see what was wrong. One thing led to another and we wound up going out for coffee just to chat.
  Several days later he called to ask me out on Friday the 12th of December. Wouldn't you know, of all the cosmic foul-ups that was the only night in the past 4 years that I had a date. He asked me instead for the next Friday (the 19th).
  On Friday the 12th I was sitting in my office when flowers were delivered, two dozen peach roses in the middle of winter! I thought they were for the boss who got all the flowers...they were for me, the first roses I have ever received in my life! 
  The card said, " See you next Friday!"  I turned to my co-workers and said , "You mark my words, I'm going to marry this guy!" 
  Fourteen months later on February 12th, 1999 we were married.  We are the happiest we have ever been in our whole lives.  We are both in our forties and this is the second marriage for us both.  Our first experiences with marriage were both horrible.  The flowers won my heart !

• My boyfriend  came to work and he brought a book with him. He told me to turn to a certain page, where I would find dishes that he liked. So I turned to the page to find that he had glued the rest of the book together but this one page. I then looked to see a page full of dishes and a picture of a clock. I came to discover that he had put a hole where the face of the clock was and inside was a ring.  On the page of  the book was written will you marry me.  I picked out the ring and started crying. my co-workers were taking pictures and crying too!  It was such a surprise.  We are now getting married the fall of this year!

• Hi, want to tell my story. The Internet is a nice thing. I met my soul mate, we both found each other in a weird way. I never go on Yahoo chat but March 16 I did and my soul mate picked me out of the blue. We have been talking and finding out how much we have in common. She is so wonderful, we are meeting in June and we already plan on seeing each other. After that I am moving to Ohio and we plan on getting married. We can't have kids but we both want to grow old together.

• I love the way my boyfriend reaches his hand behind his back for me without looking to see if I'm there. He doesn't need to because he knows that I'm there.      M. Lawson.
• Often he tells me that he wants to give me the world, what he doesn't know, is  that every time I look up into his eyes, he does just that!  Just thought I'd let you know!  M. Wright.

 

• The first Valentines day that my boyfriend and I had spent together was so romantic.  I will never forget it.  First we went to this small Chinese restaurant because that is my favorite.  Then we went for a long walk along this river just outside the city, all the lights reflecting off the water lighting our path. Then we stopped at a small park and sat on the swings and just talked.  we sat there for hours but it only seemed like a few minutes.           M. Strough
   
   
• I met the most romantic man ever while vacationing in Cancun, Mexico. When we made love he would whisper in my ear in Spanish and then translate it into English. I told him he didn't have to translate because it sounded so beautiful anyway. He said "But if I translate it for you, then I get to say it to you twice." I almost cried!   Emily
   
• My fiance and I just went to Hue in Vietnam for the weekend where you find the temples and palaces of the last dynasty in Vietnam.  We've had such great times....our slow boat ride on the Perfume river with the sun on our faces...you hear nothing much except the boat and the water...we held hands as we strolled through monuments, temples, parks. lakes...it was so romantic...we never get tired of going on short vacations..just alone

the two of us...    Regina Reyes.
