    What does SO do?:HVAC. He's a handy man.

    What are three words you could use to describe him? Chill, Dependable, and Loyal

    What is a pet peeve of yours that he does? Nothing super annoys me, but I do mind that sometimes his video games take over his life until he beats them, and then he's sulky because he has "nothing to do"

    Favorite sports team? Baltimore Ravens. He won't even talk casually with a Steelers fan.

    If he was stuck on a deserted island, what are three items that he would choose to have with him? His xbox, Three Olives Cherry Vodka, and Red Bull

    What's your sign? Libra

    When did you know that he was "the one?" When he tried to break up with me because he thought he wasn't good enough for me. I don't think a guy has ever held me high enough in his eyes to think that I desrved to have someone better than them. That made him perfect to me.

    Our second date- we had spent several hours at a museum, I was tired, hungry and cranky.  We sat down at a restaurant, and he was explaining to me something about DNA he had learned in class that week.  I didn't understand it, so he grabbed some crayons, and drew a DNA strand on a napkin.  Nerd love.  And then I saw him in his ACU's (camo uniform) a couple weeks later and it was game over.

I didnt get rushed to the ER.. but lets just say I destroyed the bathroom at a local movie theater, and can't ever go back I'm jsut happy it was the late movie and there wasnt a lot of traffic in there.. ... <strong>and I missed all of Harry Potter</strong>..
    Posted by abwatts[/QUOTE]

    Having a guy love you, despite your being a real live, functioning, human being who has less than flattering moments, is always a good sign. I think he really realized it when he was in the hospital for a hernia operation and I was ready to bite the head off the nurse who screwed up his IV. I wouldn't let her touch him after she sent him into a seizure. They had to postpone his operation for 6 hours and I stayed by his side - I think the nurses were afraid of me after that point.

    The bolded part just sucks.
