I think that opposites really do attract. I was 16 and he was 17 in high school and we met in a ballroom dance class. He was a football player and I was invisible. He grew up in a great family and I had tried everything to get away from mine. Stayed with him for a week visit (my dad passed away that week) and didn't want to go back to an empty apartment and no job and avoiding my mom. Lived together for a year, he proposed on Valentines day. Been married a year and a half. Having our first child in June.
