"At the end of 2006 after we'd been seeing each other for about three months, we went to see Bloc Party live in concert. The encore song was 'This Modern Love,' and at the very end when he sings, 'Throw your arms around me' she literally grabbed me and held on tight. It was the most forthcoming thing she'd done since I'd known her and it really changed the way I looked at her from that point on. It seems so small thinking back on it, but it really meant something at the time."

"I was in college on a blind date. I walked into her dorm lobby to find a pink tube-topped, black mini-skirted, amazonian stunner with legs that went to the clouds. One hour later we were at a party at a friend's house with about 30 other people and their dates. She stuck her hand into a large pot of melted chocolate and smeared it all over my face and we start laughing uncontrollably. People were looking at us like we were either crazy or madly in love. As I washed my face in an upstairs bathroom, she kicked open the door and an unforgettable make-out session ensued. That was the first time I knew, and I continue to fall for her every time I wake up next to her, every time I look at my kids, and every time she makes me laugh."

"The first time we spent the night together, we cuddled all night long. We made out, but that's as far as it went. In all my years of dating, I'd never snuggled with someone who "fit me" like she did. It didn't matter what position we were in, our bodies were grooved in all the right places. It was one of the best sleeps of my life, and in that moment, I knew I had found the real deal."
