Forever My Girl

I always love to hear how couples have met.  I think it is interesting how some couples have an unexpected situation that brings them together while others have known each other their entire lives and then one day something changed and they realized they could be more than friends.  This likely explains why romantic movies are always a hit with me and why I am looking forward to going to see Forever My Girl.

Forever My Girl tells the story of music super-star Liam Page (Alex Roe) who left his bride, Josie (Jessica Rothe), at the altar choosing fame and fortune instead. However, Liam never got over Josie, his one true love, nor did he ever forget his Southern roots in the small community where he was born and raised. When he unexpectedly returns to his hometown for the funeral of his high school best friend, Liam is suddenly faced with the consequences of all that he left behind.  Forever My Girl is an uplifting romantic film about second chances.  It releases in theaters on January 19.

Since we are talking about how people meet, I have to share that next week my husband and I will celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary.   When you factor in the time we dated we are looking at close to 20 years together which is why when I tell you we met online you might wonder.  Sure online dating is popular today but 20 years ago when we exchanged our first email I was pretty sure that I would never actually meet him since he was most likely going to murder me since that's what "internet people" (as my Mother called him) do.   

After months of email exchanges there was no avoiding that one day we would meet.  Which is why armed with a friend I agreed to meet him in a very pubic place (a local movie theater).   My plan was simple, go see a movie and leave since I had a friend with me.  I had no plans on ever seeing him again after this one night.   That of course changed when I walked in and saw him standing there,  I remember telling my friend that I was in big trouble because if I walked in that theater and introduced myself I would end up marrying him.   She of course looked at me like I was crazy but watched as I walked in and literately faced my fate.

Which as you can see here worked out just the way it was meant to, since we just had a date night to celebrate our anniversary.
