Some people believe
in it.
Some don’t.
I do.
People always said,
& still do to
this day,
that Scott & I
moved too fast.
It’s not just us
either,
TONS of people hear
it.
Scott & I met,
started dating 3
months later,
moved in 6 months
later,
& were engaged
during our 7th month of dating.
We had a 2 year
engagement,
& have now been
married for almost 7 months.
We always got the,
“Don’t you think
you’re moving too fast?”
“How do you know
you’re even ready for that kind of a commitment?”
or the,
“You’re SO young,
don’t you want to ‘live a little’ or meet other people?”
People who know me in
real life know that I have a real problem with telling people my feelings. Usually when I don’t agree with people,
I just smile and nod…
& then being the
weirdo that I am, I go home and type up a huge blog post on blogger about it, and
post it… or not.
I’m just not a fan of
confrontation.
Who is?
I really just need to
learn to say how I feel to the person’s face.
This is something I
clearly need to work on.
BUT.
In the meantime,
I’ll just state how I
feel about this here & now.
No.
No I didn’t feel like
I was moving too fast.
No, I didn’t think I
was too young, and no, I didn’t feel the need to meet other people.
When you find the
one, you just know.
I can’t explain it,
but those who have
found it know.
The one
is someone that you
cannot get enough of,
someone who you can
love even when they frustrate you beyond belief,
someone you can love
no matter what their nasty habits might be,
someone that you can
find sexy even in their ugliest moments.
When I met the one, it was fate.
Something I don’t
like to mess with.
I let fate play it’s
course,
& now I’m happily
married.
We had a bunch of
people hating on our relationship.
We had many people
ask us those dumb questions,
instead of just being
happy for us when we got engaged.
I say, let the hater’s
hate.
Now here is my
question to all of you,
Has this happened to
you before?
If so, what have you
said back?
Or do you just shrug
it off and not let it bother you?
I totally agree with you here. When you know you just know. We didn't really have that fast of a relationship but I've had those haters too. My fiance and I are 6 years apart so there's one thing to hate on and for another we only dated for 6 months before it turned into a long distance relationship (and still is to this day) but when you know you just know. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm also like you though that I just nod and smile. I hate confrontation. lol
*hugs* to you. don't let it get you down! :)
I completely agree with you. Aaron and I may have dated back in HS but it was only for a few months. When we got back together 16 years later, things moved very quick. We moved in together with his daughter at like 2 months and then he asked me to marry him for real 7 months later. He asked in a way wayy before that, but it wasn't official. He insisted on making it official first.
ReplyDeleteFate is fate and I believe in it ten-fold. Hubby & I were suppose to meet 2 previous times before it actually worked out, and our relationship started over "text message," when he got my number from a friend. We started "talking" in April, met in May, he left a DAY after we left for a summer internship (we talked on the phone every day), and a week after he got back we said "I love you." Everyone thought then that we were moving too fast, or said it too fast...we even had people commenting on our comments to each other on facebook! I agree girl, hata's gonna hate, brush dem shoulders off! Personally, I think when someone has an issue with it, they're either a)jealous they don't have what you have, or b)insecure in their own relationship (ie, words haven't been said, not progressing at one's wanted pace) that they have to take it out on you. I actually pity the haters ;) xo Good topic!
ReplyDeleteWhen you know, you know :) Jared and I dated a long time before ever getting engaged, BUT our relationship got really serious, really fast. I knew he was the one right from the start- when we were still just friends! Ahhh, love :)
ReplyDeleteI agree that when you know, you know. But I attribute it to God's will, not fate. Also, are people still giving you a hard time!? Seriously, you've been married for seven months...it's old news! :)
ReplyDeleteI do believe in fate, but this didn't happen to me. I met Zach, we started dating 2 months later, and got engaged 4 and 1/2 years after that. We both still live with our parents because we can't afford to move out, but if we could I bet we would have moved in together probably about 1 or 2 years ago. Each relationship is different. And like you said, you just know. I wouldn't judge you or anything if I knew you and saw that you were extremely happy. That's all that matters, is your happiness. :)
