    Tell Us Something Interesting About Yourself:
    I met my boyfriend when we were juniors in high-school.  I dated one of his very good friends (neither of us have kept in touch with said friend over the years) for two years.  BF and I met up randomly at a festival just over 2 years ago shortly after my exH and I separated and began hanging out as friends at first... we couldn't deny the attraction between us, everyone kept calling us out on it even though we kept saying we were just friends and hadn't given in the our desires to even kiss at that point.  We finally gave in and I'm sure glad we did. :)
