I will bite.
Let me think about what my wife did to "impress" me enough to want to marry her.
First of all, she is hot. Now that will only last so long, so there needs to be more there.
She is extremely nice. She is a caring person, by nature. Not just to me, but to everyone. It is nice to be around caring people.
She takes care of herself. This is important to me. She is the type that knows the difference between eating healthy and being anorexic. She works out every day. She stays clear of processed foods...
She reads a lot. She puts me to shame and I consider myself a pretty big reader.
She cares about quality. My wife does not have a lot of clothes, shoes, etc. But what she does own is very high quality. I like this, and this has influenced the way I participate as a consumer.
She is modest. Obviously this is a plus in company, but I am talking about at home as well. She is not a prude, but she keeps me wanting more, even after 14 years of marriage. This is hard to describe, b/c it sounds like a negative, but in reality it is incredibly hot.
She is a great mother. The best. I did not know this until after we married, but the writing was on the wall.
I am sure I could go on and on, but this is how she impressed me. We dated for 6 years before getting married, and I never regret my decision. I thank my lucky stars that I have her, so spending a few hundred bucks on a big night out is nothing. The least I can do.[/quote]
No you're talking about who she is...not what she did to impress you. This thread seems to be about initial date/s type of stuff...Of course you should see all you listed in her if she is your wife...MAKE SURE she knows you notice all this in her! :)
To the dumbass posting about "lavish lifestyle"...Who said lavish? When you critique someone make sure you know what they are talking about. And you can't make money with a Doctorate??? My friend went into FAMILY PRACTICE...generally the lowest paying of the professions and 3yrs later she is at 220 per year with no debt and owns her own house. She is an outdoors (mountain sports, + her running) type of person like I am which requires about or less than 1 paycheck to fund yearly. So after taxes where does the other 100-130k go? Sits on its ass in the bank!
So guess what...I consider 3 new pair of trainers, new climbing rope, some new biners, new WW paddle, maybe a new river runner, and maybe some new cams pretty lavish! So for less than one paycheck I'm set in everything I want to do until Winter while the rest sits on its ass in the bank! Sounds like if you have everything you could want and a great life you're living pretty lavish!
Also depending on how truthful you want to be, theres a good chance I'm not in HS with a 17min 5k pr like you and the other average "bitch at everyone because you feel bad about your life in the basement of your parents house" lifestyle! Yep I only run 15.09 but I am proud of it! I know you "really" run 14.20 though so you are BETTER THAN ME! Congrats!
