I always thought I would marry a tall, blue eyed, blue collar man (actually fits my ex)

But I got something so much better! My FH may be short (5'10'), brown eyed, successful businessman! I honestly would not trade him in for a million dollars I could not be more excited to be marrying my FH

You call 5'10 short? My FI is 5'3!

I always wanted to marry a guy in a business suit, but the sexy cop outfit has grown on me i wouldn't trade him for anything

I could never actually picture what my FH would look like until I met Justin. It bothered me, b/c I could never picture my wedding day at all b/c the groom was a mystery. I will say I did want to eventually wind up with someone who is everything Justin is. On our 3rd or 4th date, the vision was there. I looked at Justin, and all of a sudden the mystery man at the end of the aisle became a reality. He meets every last criteria, and he is soooo cute to boot!!

How did we all get so lucky?

I couldn't have said it better myself. For years and years and years I would dream of myself walking down the aisle, only I could only see the back of his head, finally when I met my fiance, the dream became clear, the Groom, turned around and I finally saw the face of the man I would marry!!

I really thought I would end up with an artsy, bookworm who was in a band who was moody and would rather just live together than get married....

but thank the lord that i grew out of that b*sht and met an amazing, gorgeous, ambitious, happy go lucky, total sports nut who I wouldnt trade for the world!!!

I always thought I'd marry an Italian or Irish cop/firefighter/auto mechanic/teacher (something blue collar, you get the pic). Insrtead, I'm marrying a Jewish computer programmer!

WHen I was in health class in junior high our teacher asked us to write down personality traits that we found attractive in a mate... so i wrote down sarcatic, stubborn and funny... all things my dad was (he passed away when I was a little girl) Well, my teacher came over to me and told me that those were not positive traits (stuborness and sarcastic) --what did i know I was in the 9th grade... well anyway... that is exactly what I ended up with!!! a sarcastic, stubborn guy who thinks he is funny!!! Luckily we have had a lot of years to work through the negative aspects of being stubborn and I couldn't be happier!!
