week five

My parents Meet at the Truckee Recreational park on the 4th of July, 30 years ago, at a barbque. It was not love at first sight. They were with a group a friends (not together) the two groups ran into one another and the guys asked the girls out on a date.(Never meet before that.) After they hung out for the rest of the day. For the most part they have common goals and common interest they are mostly family orriented.
When I was looking for a partner I was looking for; looks, personality, characteristics, how much we had in common, family life, how he was brought up, what he wanted out of life, what he wanted out of marriage, honesty, goals we had in common, and anything that would bring us closer in a relationship. I have shifted in what I wanted because when I was younger I was not looking for a partner for life. I was just looking for a partner for a short period of time. It was just someone to be with and to experiance things with. It helped me narrow down my expectations for my future husband. I found out what I liked and I did not like. What I wanted and what I did not want.
