    Replies
    1. U r right. I dated my husband for 3 yrs, trekking, jumping bus and entering bikes thru out dat period. Even money for cab he wld nt giv me then but I didn't mind cos of love and he was just finding his feet. He lived in a self contained even till we got married. Shortly after, we moved to a big flat and he bought a car. Things picked up for him financially. I was glad I was with him thru all these......but then! my husband would not let me drive 'his car'. Unfortunately for me, I lost my job after some years.that was d worst. I have to almost beg him for money for anything. Up till now, he takes his car for his runs while I take public trans. He doesn't remember d beginning. Sometimes I wonder if I shdnt hv gone for d made/ well- to-do guys who wanted to marry me then. I chased all of dem away because I loved him and not them. But at d end of d day, did it pay me? I wish these guys the very best.

  50. You never know where love will find you , it's a beautiful thing and very hard to find , you guys are very lucky to have found love which most couples will never experience in their lives. She has been with you thru thick an thin , when you had nothin , that's the only way a guy can know if a girl truly loves him and if you are their for him thru his trying times , he will forever give you the best love a woman can ever have . Love is the greatest force of all. As time goes by , even if any of you fall out of love in the future , work so hard to fall back in love . It's a one of a life time experience , don't ever let go of the love of your life . Congrats to you two
