    hmmm... sounds like me. i built up that same fort and a trojan horse came in. it usually took me less than 19 days to realize the trojan horse was just an imposter, but then BF got in and two years later he still has the horse inside the fort!

    moral of story: may not be a bad thing. don't know statistics to help you, but i could make one up to make you feel better.

    Yep. Happened to me too. Just when I'd asserted my complete and total independence of the male species...I met a man, right when I least expected it. Seven years later we're still together - and happily married

    Oh... I know this...

    I think it goes away at different times for different people... and for some it kind've lingers on...


    I don't want mine to go, though, and don't expect it to...

    I have been happily infatuated for 21 years


    Relax and enjoy the ride... infatuation does not necessairly mean loss of reality or independance.

    Enjoy it, whether is 9 weeks, 7 years, 21 years or unending...

    Life is about living and we should live and love to the fullest


    Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
    "I will try again tomorrow".

    Seven years so far, the head-over heels honeymoon just keeps getting better and better...


    (or should I say heels over head???) Sorry!

    28 years and counting, married for 25 years just last month, still holding hands. We did a nice leisurely 25-mile ride on our anniverary--a mile for each year.

    True love still happens.

    I'll echo what others have said, enjoy the ride and your time together. I met my love 2 years and 7 months ago (who's counting) on Valentine's day. We are still going strong and that infatuation has turned into a deep love. Take it one day at a time and make the most of each minute you have with each other.

    I think it's so cool too. Enjoy!!!

    We've been together 36 years. Married 30. I can't believe it's been that long. Sure doesn't feel that long. I like it though.

    18 years married, 23 together. Most people think we're not old enough for that, probably a side effect of finding love young.

    oh, and I had just decided I didn't need a boyfriend to be happy. that's when we met.

    still holding hands, still happy in love!

    enjoy the ride!

    Know the one!
    Mid-May 1985 - and still going strong.
    Religious bigotry (from *both* sides), ongoing racism, imprisonment; nothing has beaten us (or even kept us down for long).
    If I would marry anybody it would be him.
