    When you know, you know I guess.
-No not really. It was a crap shoot, like any major decision in life. I knew I liked her more than most people I had ever met. I knew she was beautiful and intellgent. But how on earth do you ever know you are going to want to spend your living years with this one person? You don't, not for sure. So far though, we've not killed each other and still have fun. Re the proposal, yeah that guy rules.

    Is it strange being friends with N, after crushing on her for so long? Especially now that you're married and all.
Not really. If we are alone and drunk together, I may have slight rememberences of what I found attractive, but not even then really. Not anymore: Sic Transit Gloria Mundi. Just pals, the glory has faded.

My wife though, she continues to impress :)

Good response. Thank you for not being all Hollywood-y and "true love" and "fate" about this. Pragmatic. And it seems to be working for you.
