Today marks Neil and I’s third year together as a couple. To think this time three years ago I was a nervous wreck as I was just getting ready to meet him for the first time. I’d completely forgotten the purpose of our date (we were meant to be going for a swim and a sauna) and so forgot to take my swimsuit with me. I realised this just as i’d stepped out of the front door, and was just about to head back to the flat when I realised that i’d locked myself out! All in all a good start. I don’t even remember saying Hi. I think my first words were “Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!!”, as I couldn’t believe that I was meeting someone from the internet. That and the fact that he was a good few years older than me and I had no idea what to say despite the fact that we had been talking constantly for a couple of months before we even met. Anyway, Neil treated me to a nice lunch instead. I think we met up later that night too, where Neil introduced me to the exciting world of Abernethy, and his mum brought out all the embarrassing childhood photos, as they do.

We started living together about two years ago, when I had just started uni. If it wasn’t for Neil, I probably wouldn’t have even applied for uni as he was the only one who believed that I would get in, and so got a prospectus for Abertay sent through the post. I applied about two days before the cut-off date, and was surprised to find that I had got in! So I have Neil to thank for that.

Along with the website, Neil bought me some american candy for Valentines day. I was not impressed. Half the chocolate bars were filled with peanut butter and tootsie rolls taste like perfumed fudge. Next time, stick to guylian!

Firstly I would like to thank Neil my lovely beau for making this site. It is the best present I have ever received and had no idea about it despite him blogging about it on his Twitter!

We have been together for almost three years now (our anniversary is on Tuesday!) The first time we met was pretty awkward, I put that down to his dodgy old tractor of a car. Truthfully I was just really nervous and didn’t know whether he liked me or not. Luckily something must have worked as here we are three years on, still going strong, and I look forward to spending many more years together.

As if that wasn’t soppy enough, I also made a giant love cupcake. The amount of sugar, cream and chocolate that went into it has kinda put me off though. That said, I wonder how long it will last?

I thought I would use this posts page section to allow every visitor of the site an opportunity to share the love!

My experiences of love, have Im sure like most peoples been a veritible roller coaster ride. Thankfully now settled and happy.

I have met people in life however that have never experienced ‘love’. I truly feel sorry for these people. Imagine never feeling the highs, the lows, the companionship, the laughter, the closeness, the sharing, the learning and the strength that comes from being in love and being loved. But I guess if you have never met that special someone then how could you know love of that kind and shouldnt be made to feel bad or unhappy for not finding it. Maybe however, some people can love easier than others and maybe some are incapable.

The one thing that I know for sure is that if there was more love and understanding in the world a lot of people who are dead may not be. A little cheesy but true none the less. We have become (perhaps always have been) a very intolerant species, intent on destruction and greedily pursuing our own inventions and creations.

Share the love! So come on post your experiences here.
