True Love

I love it when two people meet, and almost instantly, it seems like they've know each other for a long time.  The relationship grows rather quickly, and marriage is imminent.

I hope that I don't jinx my friend, but it looks like his relationship could head in that direction.  

These types of relationships are gems to me, because they are unique, and fairy tale like.  Now would I say that this is the purest form of finding True Love?

That would be an emphatic "not necessarily".  

There are countless iterations of how successful relationships develop, from friends that finally start dating, relationships that simmer for a long time (sometimes years) before a marriage commitment is made, and on-again off-again relationships that finally gain traction.

But I still am infatuated by the ones that find their "soul mate".

With that being said, thanks for all of you who have been great examples of finding true and enduring love, in your own way.

My friend love has always been there for you. Its like finding a tree thru the forest. If it feels right go for it with no regrets. If it doesn't work, at least you tried and you'll know for the next time what you truely want.
Your friend must be very lucky to have found someone and have you as a friend.

Remember that sometimes love has a way of sneaking up on us when we least expect it. but, you have to trust yourself enough to find it or to let it find you. do not over think. when it comes to love if you do over think about things then the only thing you will have in the end is just yourself. i have seen this gift manifest in your life. you just have to have the courage to take the happiness that you deserve to have.
