How Well Do You Really Know Them?

Have you met that special someone?

Your eyes meet across a crowded room and you just know he's the one.  You see the moonlight behind her; the way her hair flows when she walks and you know she's the one. You do everything you can to meet them.  You begin to date, plan your future together and....they just aren't who you thought they were.

You just knew he/she was the one.  You got along great, had similar interests, laughed at the same jokes. You move in together.  Life is a dream.  Then one day you get a collect call from the local jail.  He had a warrant for his arrest - pedophilia.  She meets your family for the first time - the whole family - and starts to freak out after the main course.  "You think I'm crazy!" she screams and runs out.  Everyone stares at you.

You have no idea what's going on. This is someone else, not the loving, caring person you've been spending your nights with. How did you miss the signs? Surely there were signs...

Love is blind, so the saying goes.  Sometimes it is. How many times have you heard of couples married years to find out their spouse was not the person they thought they were. Count yourself lucky you found out before the wedding!
