That man.....

stolen from girlsoul


His name: Corey
His age: 27 last month. I tease him constantly by calling him an old old man.
How many years between you: 1 and a month.
How long have you been together: Almost two years now. Exactly 17 months, 7 days. This is the longest either of us have ever been with someone…and we plan on keeping it that way.
Eye colour: lightish brown. At least compared to mine which are so dark they can look black sometimes. He has unequivocally brown eyes. Soft eyes…almost puppy eyes sometimes.  
Hair colour: brownish black. 
Hair style: longish. I’m convincing him to let it grow so now it’s just a soft lovely curly afro. The perfect length to run my fingers through or to *ehem* hold on to.
Normal Outfit: For work he wears his chef clothes – the funny looking pants, the clogs, the coat and the hat. He is so cute in hats. Outside of work – Gentleman Thug. Jeans, sweaters, tee-shirts. Very urban but very stylish.
How did you meet: at a bus stop. I was reading, he came over to talk to me and we had such a wonderful conversation…my bus came first and I gave him my number (without him asking for it). That is the first time I have willingly given a man my number – esp. someone who just walked up to me on the street.  I think I smiled for the rest of the day. He took THREE days to call me – but once he did it was on from there.
How serious is it: Very serious. like – very very serious. So serious I can’t even put it into words. 
Do you love him: I love him. I love him so much it hurts and scares me sometimes because I know I am so weak when it comes to him. I love him more than I have loved anyone…he has and is my heart.
Does he love you: Yes…we are one of those pairs who love each other so much it’s scary. We fight and fuss and go through all that – but in the end we HAVE to solve our problems because it would break us if we let go.
Do your parents like him: I don’t know. My mom hasn’t really met him. They have talked on the phone a few times…but I have a general idea that she thinks he is cool. She didn’t raise a fuss when I told her we were getting married. Well…not too much of a fuss.
Do you trust him: I do…and I don’t. I trust him not to hurt me on purpose…but I don’t trust him to avoid an accident that might hurt me. That doesn’t really make sense, but yes. I think I might not trust him more because of fear issues I have than because of anything he has done.
Enough to drive your car(assuming you have one): Yeah. It took me a while (I mean we ARE talking about BabyGurl here) but I will let him drive it now.
Would you share a toothbrush with him: Yeah. I figure any yuckies he has, I have by now.
Does he let you wear his pants: Yup. Only sweat pants though as my butt is too big to get into any of his jeans. Though I have to admit I tend to not give him much of a choice.
Do you have a shirt of his to sleep in that smells like him: Actually no…I only wear clothes to bed when it is really cold anyhow – and he almost never does so there is no shirt of his I would want to steal to sleep in. And besides, my boobs are big enough that they would be a tight fit. *sigh*  And besides, if I really want to smell him and he isn't there, I steal his pillow.
Do you like the way he smells: I love the way he smells even when he is funky. It smells like Corey. How could I not love it??
Can you picture having kids with him: Yup. I think he will make a good daddy. We have agreed on two kids, with an option on a third. :)
What do you like the most about him: His intelligence. His willingness to let me do…esp. when he doesn’t understand what the hell I’m doing or why. His laughter. His passion for so much. His smile. His dedication.
What bothers you the most about him: His temper. His coldness. his rock headed stubbornness. His willingness to just let things flow. I think I dislike most of this stuff because it is just so opposite to me.
Does he have a temper: Yah…and by him having a temper it’s breathing life back into mine… which is a good and a bad thing. But it’s a flash temper…it flares up burns quick and then is gone.
What is the best present he's ever given you: Either the first dozen roses he gave me or my engagement ring. Not sure…
Does he have a cute nickname for you: *smiles* mostly Baby. That is the one he uses the most, but occasionally he will come up with something else.
Do you have a nickname for him: Baby, my love, my heart, LOML (light of my life). I usually only call him Baby, and I use the rest when I am talking about him. 
Are you happy to be with him: absolutely. even when I wonder if I am crazy to be with him...I'm happy about it. Even when I'm mad at him. Even when I just - grrrr - want to wring his neck...I can't imagine not being with him.
Do you think you could do better: no. Simply that. Nothing could be more than this. I don’t think I could handle it.
