There were so many similarities between us when my husband and I first met. We fell in love like crazy and the whole world came to a stand still to watch us play and laugh, and live knowing that we were created solely for the purpose of loving each other! He is my soul mate and I am his. He is the other half of who I am, and he is everything that I am not. I only need to give a glance his way, and I have said a thousand beautiful words without ever having uttered a sound, and the beauty of it is that he knows exactly what I am saying because he knows what I need before I even have to ask.

We are inseparable and for those who know us, they would say we are twin souls who live as one, but reside in two different bodies. We lived a lifetime searching for the perfect love that we now share. This love has ignited the flames of passion within our hearts for each other, and we couldn't live a moment without being near to each other. There is only one catch-I am a sports fanatic, and he isn't.

I happen to be as feminine as they come, but I love just being one of the guys where I can let my hair down, relax, and scream my lungs out for my favorite teams! Myself, I was a gymnast, ballet dancer, and when I was younger, I used to be the captain of every cheer-leading squad! I loved the feeling that enveloped me as our team would go for the winning goal or point, but I also found myself grieving as they lost just by a hair! Though it was not always about winning, I sure loved the way it felt when we did!

From there, I found myself addicted to statistics, most valuable players, and the love of sports. Only, it wasn't just football, or hockey. In college, I even found myself in 2 fantasy leagues- One for football and one for baseball. Once I learned the in's and outs of the fantasy leagues, I couldn't help but take on the role in the second year of my leagues as commissioner. Ultimately, that is how I met my husband. He wasn't in either of the leagues that I was in, but he was a friend of a friend, and the moment I saw him and he saw me, it was love at first sight!

My husband has always sought to meet my needs above his. He loves all of the same things that I love, with the exception of sports. He isn't a sports fan, and I am entirely a sports fanatic! So when he would make romantic picnic lunches and plan moonlit walks in the freshly fallen snow, many times he was disappointed when he had to cancel his plans to sit and watch me cheer on some team who he knows absolutely nothing
