I have to say I never planned on being married. When I was younger and very independent, I had friends who wanted nothing else but to get their MRS. degree as they called it in college. I came from parents who hated each other and never wanted to be stuck with that. I had my own career and own agenda. And thats when I met my husband. I met him at work and we happened to start working together. He was married but separated which I did not believe at first. I really liked him and thought if nothing else we could be friends. Work kept use together and talking alot. Six months down the road and he told me he was divorced and kissed me. That was it, hook line and sinker. We've been married for 13 years and he is my BEST friend. I never thought it would happen but it did. We are both in law enforcement which has the highest divorce and cheating rate in the world. If I had a nickel for every married man that hit on me. My husband and I have actually broken that mold and are very happy. Communication is the key, I believe, I tell him everything. I guess my point is, don't feel pressured by other people, do your own thing and I am telling you when you least expect it......expect it!
