That's very sweet vq
When I met my DH there was an instant spark but he was engaged to his second wife and I was engaged to an XP. He got married and divorced within a couple of years, and I dumped XP and went from that frying pan into the fire which was my most recent ex. Who, incidentally, worked with both DH and myself. It was over 4 years between meeting and getting to know DH, and finally going out together.
When we did get together we wasted no more time thtough, moving in together 6 weeks later, running away from Paris three months later and getting married just a few months after that :o
We both admit we had feelings for each other pretty much from teh start but were too involved in other nightmares to even contemplate going out. Add to that the age difference, the fact he was friends with my ex, that he had been divorced twice and, to top it off, he was my client... Getting together was complicated :)
