How fast is too fast to fall in love??

I was just wondering how fast is too fast to fall head over heels for someone? Like should you be dating like over a year before you fall in love? And is there a such thing as love at first sight?

I was just wondering because I have always been a person that gets emotionally attached to guys too fast. I have always found it difficult to follow a certain protocol as to when something should be done. Oh, I shouldn't cook for a man until he deserves me to do it. Or even how soon is appropriate to have sex for the first time. I usually just go with my flow. Sure I've been hurt numerous times along the way, but I always figured that I wasn't the one with the problem. And eventually God would send someone my way who appreciated me going out of my way. I like to cook, clean, take care of my man, take care of myself, etc...And in the past men have all taken it for granted.

I do believe that this time around I have found a good one. He is very mature and has his shit in order. No kids, a great job that isn't in danger of disappearing due to current layoffs in the economy, and he had never been married...oh yea has his own house. That is a little too good to be sure, I'm sure everyone is thinking. Shit my mom and I was thinking the exact same thing. I haven't found any major problems. He does have a trust issue we're working on due to his ex, but so far so good.

I feel like I have been living in fast forward for so long, and now I get to slow down. Who knows maybe you guys will see me with a big belly in about 1yr. Only God knows

Strange Encounter


So, I recently stopped associating with this guy. We went on 2 dates nothing major, I was feeling him, but something that he did in his past really weighed on my mind. We first started talking in early spring, but I disappeared. I moved back home and hit him back to see how he had been. Why he got married. He knew the girl for only a few months and now he was on a date with me, obviously things weren't going well. The rationale behind it was that they wanted to live together and she wouldn't unless they were married, so he figured what the hell. That I could believe it. I was in denial for a hot minute. I thought he was play with me. I had to tell him that he wasnt very funny and he needed to stop immediately..HA HA u need to stop. So, I saw him about 2 more times. All a while I couldn't get past the fact he married. He got divorce, or I guess that would be an annulment from his newlywed wife.

I stopped talking to him like I started out with. I couldn't get past his view of marriage. Obviously, he didn't regard it as being too important. SO, what I really am trying to get to is that he send me a text talking about, "when I (me) said that we met for a reason, what was that?"

I simply feel like God brings people into our live for various reasons. I feel that we should learn something from every person that comes into our lives, rather they are around for 1 season or many seasons. And it's up to each of us to decipher what the moral of the story is of each encounter
