I was 32 when I finally got into the only real relationship of my life. Before that, I had a few on again off again attempts, nothing lasting more than a few months at a time, nothing truly connected the way I knew it should be.
2. Hod did you meet your partner?
I met her in my dreams when I was about 19. I dreamed about her for years, slowly seeing her more clearly, until I knew exactly what she looked like, smelled like, her vibe, her presence, her manner.
3. At wich point did you start to feel something (for example, did you start relationship with feelings or that came later?)?
Meanwhile, I had a friend who lived about an hour out of town. When I would call for him, his sister would often answer the phone, and I just loved talking to her. She was so sweet, and just hearing her voice would brighten my day. I actually used to innocently call when I knew he wasn't there just to hear her say hello, and chat with her for a few minutes. She brought light to my life. Somehow, she had an amazing way of touching my soul.
4. Did you "know" (meaning: it felt good according to your Ni) that your (in that time future) partner is someone worth trying?
After many years of innocently talking to her on the phone for a few minutes here or there, I finally met her, and saw her for the first time. I knew without a shadow of a doubt because everything about her was as I had been dreaming for over a decade. From that instant, we spent every moment together (I even got a job where she worked so we could be together at work). We both just knew. She came home with me that night and moved in with me (without asking, not that I would have said no), and we got to spend the most wonderful happiest years of our lives together. We only ever had
three 'fights' and they consisted of us getting upset with each other for about 10-30 minutes, not talking, and then saying (at the same time) "This is stupid. Nothing is worth risking our relationship. I'm sorry, and I love you." We were constantly in physical contact with each other if possible. We always held hands when walking, always spooned when we slept, had trouble going a few hours without at least hugging each other. We were that couple that other couples couldn't believe still acted like newlyweds after all the years we'd been together. It was as close to perfect as I could imagine, and losing her was the most painful thing that has ever happened to me.
Edit: I got some rep comments about this, so I wanted to make this clear. She's not dead. Her sister in law hated me and told her some very convincing lies. She wouldn't believe me, left me, and stopped talking to me. Worse still, she got into drugs, alienated herself from her family, ruined her life, and is apparently homeless now. I have no idea where she is. When I say lost, I mean it literally.
