U- Until
He had never thought of settling down with someone. He never thought of having children either, but that was until he saw her in the elevator. She was beautiful and he wanted to know more about her. He had merely existed going from one woman to the next having no real purpose in the women he dated until her. He had never believed in love at first sight, or soul mates. That was until he saw her.
He knew after their first meeting that he had to know more about her. It was the second time that he had met her at a courthouse that they had talked more. They began talking and then went out for coffee. The next thing he knew that they were going out to dinner a week later. They started dating and he fell more and more in love with her.
He had heard his frat brothers and others talk about love at first sight and soul mates. Given his history with his father who had a new wife every time he saw him. He wondered if his Mother was his Father's soul mate and he was trying to recapture that? Or if it was the money that the women had? He would never find out because he wasn't asking.
He laughed at a joke that she had made and he felt like he could be himself with her. She could see through his masks and even a couple of times called him on it. She was good for him. They had been dating for a month when he had gone to a Jewelry store and picked out an engagement ring.
The next day he asked her to marry him and she said yes. He never dreamed of a future with a woman like this that was until he saw her.
