You two are so adorable! I love how much Deana kept blushing. You remind me of my husband and myself. He was my best friend too and we met in an odd way...I volunteered to help a friend at a county fair in the kid section. I was dressed in Mickie Mouse overall shorts and wore pigtails....I was well into my 30s but no one knew. My husband came with his friend, his wife worked near me. Her and her husband noticed we kept checking each other out but were too shy to do anything and because the other girl was my friends daughter they were able to get us together. Our love story went very quickly and we were married within a few years and he was my best friend for many years and still would be if he hadn't passed from cancer. Sorry to make our love story sad but honestly our years together were the best of my life and you two remind me of the way we were! We were always joking and laughing. Life isn't always perfect but as long as you're there for each other you can get through anything! I hope you two live long happy lives together!

That’s great story! My wife and I met in a German class at a community college south of Detroit. I sat in the front with high school friends, she sat alone in the back, and we NEVER talked the whole class. There wasn’t enough students enrolled in the next German class, so it was canceled. We bumped into each other a year later and started talking about how bummed we were that the class was canceled, and things took off from there. We’ve been together for 34 years, and married for 30. I wish you the best in your marriage as well!

@@purplelove3666😂 why is it a waste of time when you're not married? What's the difference to being in a long time marriage compared with a long time non married relationship? I'll tell you: you actually still like each other when you're still together and not just because you're feeling obligated by a made up religious nonsense ceremony

I had just gotten out of a long term relationship and WAS NOT looking for love, I was single for the first time in many years, I had a good job owned my car and paid very little rent...one night a friend of mine asked if I wanted to go to a club I said sure, that where I meet my husband and the rest is history. We have been married for over 25 years and have two adult sons that make us very proud! My husbands got a job in Germany and I want to learn some basic German.

I'm in a German/American relationship and when you mentioned that flirting and being nice are two different things, I immediately remembered having that same conversation with my boyfriend. There are cultural differences that come up here and there and sometimes we have misunderstandings. It's good to talk about it and remember that it might just be a different point of view instead of a real disagreement. Good Luck to you both. It seems like you are going to have a wonderful future!
