Heh. I was a little scared of DH when we first met. There were definitely no introductory sparkage between us. He had a Big Scary Mustache. It took awhile for me to get past that, get to know him and enjoy all the wicked puns and behold the kind twinkle in those brown eyes... and now I adore him, and am pretty certain that he is personally responsible for hanging the moon.
Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
OMG, Katie Bee!!
Yeah, I considered that. I was meh on her before meeting her too, though. I feel like when I meet the right girl, I...won't be meh, right? I'll know? Or something? It'll feel right?
Yeah, I don't know about that. There are the flame-y feelings that don't pan out, and the slow burns that last.

I'll know? Or something? It'll feel right?
At some point, yes, but that may or may not be when you meet.

For me, if I were P-C, the First Meeting would be filled with waaaay too much tension to relax and find out whether I enjoyed the other person at all. I'd be all Best Behavior and awkwardly forced humor, with sweaty hands and doubt in my heart. Even if he said he had a pony for me.
I would probably take heart in my situation if I didn't have an immediate dislike of the intended that had been selected for me.

Now tagless for your comfort.
DH and I are the one night stand that lasted forever.
What can I say? We both got lucky.

Query to P-C's mother: Why were you so all-fired keen on him studying him science when you believe in magical thinking?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
w00t, Katerina Bee! Congrats on the "Featured Artist" thing!

Damn. I feel like I'm teething, and want to bite down hard on something. Also, when I swallow soft food like pureed winter squash, it feels like I might be swallowing too hard.

Freeze a wrung out wash cloth and bite in that, maybe, WindSparrow. Could help. Not with the swallowing, probably.
