I married my "crushes". My first husband caught my eye when I was in the 9th grade. We dated all through high school and college, and got married after we graduated. We even had our first real, fulltime jobs, with the same company. We were together a total of 15 years.....but things didn't work out.

I dated a bit after that, but it took 10 years for me to have another crush and I was almost 40 at that time! But thank goodness I had that crush, as Scott asked me out for a date, and the rest is history!
