I saw my hubby at the Rabbi's house. I went in the kitchen after Shabbos dinner that night to talk to him...and I couldn't speak! I grew up around guys...so he was the 1st guy I couldn't talk to in my life.
I thought he was so wonderful I tried to set him up with friends thinking he'd never look my way!
Meanwhile, I was dating this guy. I broke it off and told everyone I was close with that I was tired of dating boys...I wanted a man! I was ready to get married and I was gonna find him in 6 months. I went on a bunch of dates trying to find my husband (I got set up by people in the community). Then this guy I was in love with in high school and I decided to date to see if we were right. He wanted me to look up his profile on line...so I did...but I had to put in my profile too.
My husband found me on-line. He asked me out right away. At first he thought I was my best friend who he had also seen at the Rabbi's...but when he realized it was me he was THRILLED! He had told a family in the community about me...but he was too shy to ask the Rabbi.
I had a date with the guy from high school on Thur. night and I was spending Shabbos in his community. (sundown Fri. to sundown Sat). I told my hubby about the other date...we were e-mailing on-line...and he thought it was best to see what happened with the high school guy before we should go out.
Wed. night, the night before my date, my hubby and I spoke on the phone for 4 hours! The high school guy called through and I didn't even get it. Needless to say, Sat. night I met my hubby in person and we've been together since. We got enagaged just under 3 months and married in 7 months of knowing each other. We couldn't be happier with anyone else!!!!
P.S. It took us 4 months to meet...so I was right! I would know within 6 months....
