- Timing is everything. And you have got to be at the right place in your own growth cycle to actually recognize all the great qualities a potential partner brings to the table.
A lasting relationship is no joke. It takes commitment, it takes respect, it takes understanding of who a person actually is (not who you want them to be), and it takes a common goal. A mature relationship requires maturity from both parties.
Seeing as it's wedding season and a lot of young people might be feeling anxious that they haven't found "The One", I thought I'd share my How I Met Michael Story. I'm not saying that everybody isn't ready for marriage at 23, but I certainly was not. I'm glad I let myself simmer for a while before I took the plunge.

Thank you Aunty Carla 😆 35 years young single lady here, entering into the height of my career and this was everything I needed to hear ♥️
Good for you ❤️❤️❤️
I had to look at your profile pic because I thought this was my comment. 35 single and thriving.
Met my other half when I was 45 and we married the next year ..... But we knew from the moment we met that it was special ..... It was just like two pieces of a perfect fitting jigsaw. And it turned out that we were in the same small business all the time ..... But the next had to happen at the right time.
Narrator: Linda was right. 😂
How many times did she gloat after that? 😂
Must hear Linda’s version. How frustrated was she during those 15 years???
Yes!! Let's hear from Linda! Loll
lol yes
My husband and I met when we were both 18. He was a friend of my then boyfriend. By the following year, we were a couple and were married when we were both 21. We have been through great times and some really terrible times but I can’t imagine my life without him. We have both grown and changed in ways I never would have believed possible but, through it all, our love has never waivered. Love, respect, support, companionship and a whole lot of humor has made this possible. We will be married 52 years this summer and I am definitely looking forward to our next 50!
Awww good for you both!! Congrats on 52 years 💕💕
Congratulations! 1972 was a good year. It will be my 52nd as well. 😊
Shout out to Linda! She knew before you did! Good friends change the quality of our lives in so many ways
Absolutely 🙌❤️
Why you need to travel the world with your bff in your twenties #vintage #travel #lifelessons
Troy was the Best Man at my sister's wedding when I was 17. A couple of years later, we dated for a few months but weren't interested in continuing.
Seven years after that, he moved back to town and we fell in love, got engaged in two weeks, married seven months later, and it's been six years of happiness.
The parties involved were correct the whole time, but the timing was off. We just weren't cooked yet!
Aw! Good for you both! 🩷🩷
After 2 brief marriages in my 20’s, I was prepared to be single for the rest of my life. By my early 40’s I knew I didn’t want to date casually anymore. When I met my husband, he was not someone who I would ever had envisioned becoming my spouse. We were friends for about 6 years and circumstances in our respective lives at the time caused us to start spending a lot of time together. I grew to see that he was exactly what I wanted in a partner and that he was someone who complimented my life. Marriage isn’t always easy, it takes lots of patience, time, and effort. Our 22nd anniversary is coming up soon and I look forward to growing old together ❤
Awww this is so sweet. Happy anniversary ❤️ thank you for sharing this sweet message xoxo
Great story. I met my husband at work when he was 17 and I was 20. Some guys in his department had sent him a valentine card and told it was from me…then asked me two days later to go along with it if he asked if I’d sent it! Long story short, I did and we’ve been together 34 years and have three gorgeous kids. Best bloke ever!
Dudes playing cupid! 😁Sounds like an 80s movie. Love it!
I didn't marry who I thought was the love of my life. We just knew we would be together. The man I did marry, I would never have chosen, now Apr 2, will be 35 years later, and going strong, I can't imagine ever being with someone else. It was God's timing. ❤ Thanks for sharing.
Aww happy 35❤️ timing is everything
Perhaps Linda and Richie should have side match-making business.❤😄
😂😂😂😂 they should, given their persistence
lol they should!
You’re so right. You have to build a foundation. I was friends first with my husband. We worked together and only at his good bye party did we both realized that we were crazy in love. 24 years and two wonderful sons he had a brain aneurysm and left me.
Live every single moment because a soulmate is a once in a lifetime thing.
My husband is Michael, and we got married when I was 34! The person I was in my 20s was not *marriage material*. I'm so glad I waited.
is no one gonna talk about the glamorous thumbnail? 💯👏🏾
Great story! Reminds me of When Harry Met Sally. I'm sure not the first time you've heard that.
Beautiful story. My husband and I met online but I refused to see him face to face (he had bad picture) but he was nice so we became email buddies. Two years in, he convinced me to meet him and I was thrilled ...it was a bad picture of a gorgeous guy! I'd already fallen for his mind, his aspirations, his morality, and finally his cutey patooty face! I'm also less superficial now. Lol. it's been 21 years
Haha this was such a sweet story! And hey, attraction is important too. So happy you found your person! 😊💚
The best marriages are based on friendship. It's the friendshio that will carry you through the rough times.
I really appreciate this advice. I’ll be 30 soon and I’ve yet to even have a relationship because I haven’t found someone who is willing to take the time to get to know me. It’s been incredibly disheartening watching all of my other friends find their person and I become a perpetual 3rd wheel, because even their spouse’s friends are all taken. (It’s even harder now that I’ve fully recognized I’m on the asexual spectrum, and a lot of the dating scene is *very* sexual.) But I’m starting by trying to look for more friends and expand my social circle, and maybe I’ll eventually find my person that way. Reminders like this help me realize I’m still young and love can happen for me even if I didn’t meet “the one” in high school or college. Thank you for giving me a little bit of hope. ❤
We need more pictures! The ones in the thumbnail are STUNNING!
That is an incredible story. Thank you for sharing it with us
And thank you for watching 🩷❤️❤️
Wow.. Carla, what great advice, and what a fantastic story!!
Linda and her husband must be amazing friends!! You are so lucky to have great people in your life.
I met my husband when I was a preteen. Started dating in my mid teens, married early 20's. Still married and in love...I even like him...40+ years later
Interrail is still a thing in Europe and so are friends who KNOW! Happy that you all found happiness - I married in a whirlwind at the age of 37, and I’m hoping for the next forever too. No one should ever stress over being “married” instead, always focus on yourself and it will fall as it may… there are worse things than being alone such as being alone in an unhappy relationship. Many wishes to you and Michael, Carla 💋
I’m 35 and still single 😅 maybe this is my year ❤
Great love story!🥰
❤️❤️❤️
At 75, still want what I did at 23. Easier to find now. Boys just take longer to catch up. Another thing to consider 🙄
Great point!🙌❤️
Relationships are sooo hard nowadays, I am pessimistic..Glad it worked for the 4 of you💜
I'm 50 and single, I'm alright, I mean OK 🤣😀😂maybe I will never find my match 🤣but as the french said " l'espoir fait vivre "🤣.
aime ta vie 💜
SAME! I’m 50 and single. I’ve been single for 14 years, mainly because I want to concentrate on raising my daughter. Now, it’s been so long, I don’t even know if I know how to date 😳 I used to be a partier, and wasn’t afraid to date or fall in love. Eeeeks, I can’t even imagine going on a date now
Thank you for reminding me not to be anxious at 29 with my love life, Carla! ❤
Everyone has their own timing!❤️❤️
I love this story ❤ My hubby and I got married, got divorced and got then married again 6 yrs later. I love him so much I married him twice. 😊
Awww! Timing is key! Xx
What a blessed love story. Your story made the romantic in me smile. Thank you for sharing. ❤🙏🏽💯
I'm so glad ❤️ and thank you for watching XOXO
Still with the man of my dreams for 42 years and counting ❤
Awww congrats to you both ❤️❤️
Thanks so much Carla! You know, this really warmed my heart.❤️
It's one of the most beautiful and amazing love story I've heard I'm like Linda I've met my man the 25 of march in 1999 and it still working...big birthday is near !!! I Love your awsome story 😘❤🙏🏼
This is a movie in the works. Who do you want to play you? I enjoyed your brief but well told story of how you ended up with the man who was there all along. Bravo!!😊
This is such a beautiful story. I met my husband at church at the age of 18,and he fell in love with me. By 19, he was just too precious for me to let go, and we got married when I finished college at 24. He's still my boyfriend&husband
Awww love that ❤️
Great advice!👏🏽🥰
Such a cute story! 😊
23 y/o here. This gives me hope! I'm anticipating more school and a career and don't know how a partner will fit in to it. All my friends are dating... anc the person who I thought was going to be my partner is across the continent probably with someone else. My biggest worry now is if I wait too long, I might no longer be able to start a family... I know that's over decade away but do you have any advice about just letting go and letting life do its thing 😅
I've been scrolling the comments on this vid. I think that's a great place to start for you! (If you haven't read through them already). So many stories covering a plethora of timings and scenarios ending with fulfilled people.
Ok. So no Rico Suave 🚫 and to save time, take second (or 3rd) look at that awkward date w/ the nice “boring” guy. ✔️
Pretty much 😅💕
it's uncanny looking at those wedding pictures, because I don´t see Carla, I see Ivy! 💘
She’s my twin!!
Happiness doesn't come to everyone alas. I thought I found the love of my life but after 20 years he cheated on me, took the pets and left me disabled and to die alone eventually. Some people just get screwed and treated like shit. I won't trust like that again. It's been 8 years and I still cry myself to sleep at night.
Thought I'd end up a military wife because I was always dating vets (i live nowhere near a base of any kind but yet my dating life was like that🤷♀️) met a guy who worked for the salvation army and that's who i married🤣🤣technically a soldier.. of God LOL
Love everything about this
So what do you say to a 50 year old who hasn’t found her match yet?
Trust your timing ❤️ do what you enjoy and it will happen when you are not expecting it XOXO sending love and light 🩷🩷
There is wisdom on that words! 😊 And time 😅
Yes🙌❤️💕
Ah yes, the posterior is very important.
😂🩷🩷
It's neat how fate works, yeah? My husband and I met at 17 when I literally slammed into him in a school stairwell. At that time we were in other (flawed) relationships and we started dating a month before graduation. We have now been together for 21 years.
We need a curly hair routine please!!!!!
From washed, wet to dry with products included por favorrrrrrr!!!!
Thank you❤
❤
Beautiful story, thanks for sharing. ❤
And thank you for joining!💋
@@CarlaRockmore1 You're very welcome, love your channel . ♥️
Awww, Happy Anniversary! 🥰 This resonates so much... I got married at 42, after having dated my now husband, for nearly 12 years. We knew we had something special in each other, but we both had a lot of growing up to do, before we felt comfortable committing to each other, legally & forever- so those early years of our relationship were spent in a lot of growth & change for us, both. I'm really glad we waited- I feel like we have a good, strong foundation of love & mutual respect, at this point. 💜
We went to the same college, met briefly, and then he sent me a message on Facebook but we weren't friends. We also lived in the same town but had never bumpes into each other. The message didn't come through for four years, and we've now been together for nearly two with a wonderful little girl. ❤
Omg, that was so great - & that ending is THE ending! Ty for posting- you are a brave and caring & sincere gal.☺️ ~coming from a “mature” woman, still “working on it”.
Till us more and tell us what you learned but go deeper .
I jumped into a marriage in my 20’s with the wrong one. I recently at 40 just married my best friend from my teens. The foundation is so key!!! You nailed it! I love coming here for fashion help but this video is by far my favorite!
Met my husband when we were 35. Married at 36, kids at 38 and 40.
Perfect!
My husband was a family friend. We knew each other well before we went out. 30 years later .... it works.
Stop it!!! My 20 yo daughter broke up with her first boyfriend (only dated 3 months 😂😂) and this summer she is headed to Europe for a month. She’s going to 6 countries, ending in London. The main thing that keeps running through my mind is, “Don’t fall in love with a European man and not come home!” 😂 See!! You’re proof it could happen!
I met my husband when I was 19 and he was 28. Actually, I was engaged to someone at the time that I knew deep down I’d never marry. But, that’s another story.
My husband and I were becoming best friends. He was dating other women and I was complaining about my fiancée.
It took 2 years before we were both single. He thought I was too young to be in a committed relationship, plus he didn’t want kids. Although I told him I also didn’t want kids, he didn’t believe me.
We dated and then lived together for several years.
I thought he wasn’t interested in being married because he had some traumatic past relationships.
Then on my 28th birthday he asked me to marry him.
I was blown away shocked.
We’ve now known each other for 44 years. Married for 34 years.
We took the long way around fully committing to each other.
We’ve both never regretted a day together.
He’s the love of my life.❤
I was lucky enough at 22 to have matured to a pretty good degree and met a young man who was also well rounded and grown … 35 years & 3 kids later …
Aww❤️❤️
I am 62, i was married for a twinkling in my early twenties and i have no children. Ive had two other great loves, one for ten years and one for six. All of them were famous or well known for a particular skill. All of them were the wrong wrong wrong choice. I also look back at all this and cringe because im an idiot when im in love total spaz. I have kitties, i cook experiments for my neighbors and i volunteer for fun stuff and im an unemployed womens fitness coach. I love my closet and my shoes, great hobbies but you guys, it didnt happen for me, didnt happen so there you go. Im too wierd for love type things💖👠
Your love story is straight out of When Harry Met Sally, as is mine and my husbands …
“Nine extra floors” 😉💗
A really good friend is rare these days. What a great friend Linda is.🥲
I'm lucky 🩷 we are still great friends!!
I LOVE this video. You are absolutely so right. Love does find you at the right time
35 born and raised in London single and my career is taking off. I DO want to be a mother but wife first but building with right man.
How nice was it to hear your love story, relationships are hard, l would know l had an arrange marriage but it’s so nice to hear you found the right one ❤❤
I didnt find my soul mate till i was 46. Before this i was married 20 years and he treated me like garbage but i stayed because i wanted my children to have a home. Wait till you find the one and you will know when they are because you will want to be with them and adore them.
Wow, is all I can say. Congratulations 🎉 I love a good story, especially a good love story. 😍
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed ❤️❤️

You lived in The Netherlands all those years? Je spreekt dus Nederlands? 😊😊
I need a Linda😂

What a lovely story. I thought you were going to say that on the first blind date you fell madly in love. I got that wrong didn’t I 😅
lol yep
What a beautiful story. Thanks for sharing Carla.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
❤️
Thanks for sharing! I love how we met stories❤❤❤
Me too!!🩷🩷
That's a fantastic story.❤
Carla, could you tell us how you get such pretty, defined curls? Thank you!
Lately I’m loving Kerastase nutritive shampoo and conditioner, and then once a month, I do the mask… And then I add a mandarin orange spice amount of Kevin Murphy bodybuilder volumizing mousse to finish it off. Let it dry naturally till 80% and then blow dry with my Dyson diffuser (upside down) and crunch out the crispies lol.
@@CarlaRockmore1 Brilliant! Thank you!!! 😘😘😘
Yes there still is a interrail Ticket in Europe. My Kids do it. I also did it back in the days. We could have been on the same train. I also fell in love on the Trip. But thank god I didn't marry him 😅
Carla, it's just fun to watch you and hear your story. You always brighten my day. Thank you!
Lol married at 23 years old going on 13 years.
Good for you!!
