I was wondering if you ladies would be willing to share with me the story of how you met your significant other? Or if you don't have a significant other, what kind of person do you want to meet and how would you want to meet them?

I guess I'm in the mood to hear romantic stories!

That's so sweet - thanks for sharing! You two sound so happy together, and I'm so glad that she understands that your child is very important to you. I think that's wonderful.

Hope you had a great weekend!

Thanks for sharing your story - I definitely did like it. I saw the picture of Sheila that you have in your picture link, and she's very pretty. I'm glad that things are going well for you two!

That's so sweet that you surprised her later with the charm! I love doing things like that for people, and I love it when they do it for me, too. I think it shows they really care when they know or remember what you like.

I love the part about holding them close while you were dancing and then buying them a drink - I think that's so romantic! It just makes me want to write a poem or paint a picture.

Wow Kim...getting married, eh? How wonderful! I'm delighted for you both, hon. Nony and I will be getting hitched next year too...a shame we all live so far apart...we could have had a double wedding.

I'm Angel (29)and I'm very much single. I'm not a picky person at all! I want somebody that can make me laugh. Somebody that like children because I have three (14-boy,11-girl,5months-boy). They can have children of their own too or even want to have one of their own one day. I just want somebody that I get along with that will love me as much as I would love them.

I had my son at 15. My daughter at 18. When daughter was 1 I packed my bags one day while he was at work and went to a shelter (he was abusive) and they sent me back to PA after two weeks. About 8 years later after knowing the guy for about 6 months I got married. Then after one bad marriage - separation - a night of dranks (WAY to many!!!) with one of my guy friends trying to cheer me up - waking up at his place (BIG surprise!!!) I got pregnant and had my baby at 29 (this Feb.). I don't talk to my older son & daughters father he is in jail doing some hard time!!! My divorce was final in March!!! (I'll never let someone make me feel (family & friends) like I need to have a man in my life because I'm a single mother). That was the worst experience I ever had!!! The babies dad may call about twice a month - he has take the baby twice both times for about two hours. But lately he's been blowing my phone up - showing up at all times of the day without calling first. Last time he was at my house he questioned about the rainbow's with a big smile on his face. I'm waiting for him to start asking questions. I love my children but it's a lot of hard work!!!
