She clearly made every other woman I'd met look bad (or at least less attractive) by comparison.
We shared extreme compatibility in almost every area, from beliefs to leisure activity (e.g., we both were active in martial arts and read a lot of philosophy and sci-fi). We felt an incredible emotional connection, have great, open and honest communication, and the sex was an order of magnitude better than any we'd previously experienced (and still is!). Add the fact that she was (and still is) beautiful, graceful, motivated, responsible, intelligent, warm, kind, compassionate, and sensual, and she is my ideal match.
This is a second marriage for us both, and we both learned a great deal from our first marriages, especially what to avoid, and what to seek in a mate.
We had known each other for several years, and I knew she was basically an honest, truthful person, who was not jealous of my other friends or hobbies. She didn't try to control my every move or thought, we enjoyed the same things and both like to laugh. I felt life without her in it would be lonesome and terrible.
Not at all the case in my marriage! I was scared and unsure and tried to call things off several times along the course of our dating. My husband was the rock who held me firm and led me to the alter. And I'm so, so grateful he did
all the "usual" reasons aside it came down to her thoughtlessness and ability to know when emotion needed to be taken out of the equation in order to come to a general consensus on an issue.
it was something that small ended up making her the closest to perfect i have ever found.
we have zero issues in our marriage thanks to this.
Although we cant technically get married - but we are as good as - I can answer the OPs question simply by saying that as I grew to knew the girls I am now with it got to the point where I could not picture my life without them and they figured in all my plans - ideals - dreams - hopes for the future.
So I guess it was not really a decision I conciously made but one that life made for me.
