We seem like a very unlikely couple, with wildly different and incompatible personalities. Each of us has some significant emotional and psychological issues with which the other is very poorly-equipped to cope. I think that if anyone were to have known both of us very well before we met each other, such a person would have to conclude that there is no way that the two of us should be together. It seems like there ought to be many men out there that would make a better husband for her than I possibly could, and many women who would make a better wife for me than she possibly could.

But somehow, it works, and in the time we've been married, I've known of other people who I would have expected to be much more stable than either of us, who have been married and divorced, and remarried. For all the challenges that we have, for all the apparent incompatibilities that we have, we must be doing something right.

Is that the same as being smitten? ;)

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH I don't know if I'd connect THOSE dots. I mean, I am in love, but smitten...just sounds bad. You'll never hear me say that I'm "whipped", and I imagine that smitten is just a slight downgrade of that.
