Oh absolutely...let me count the ways:
Ex: greedy and cheap...BF: most generous person I've met,

Ex: couldn't keep a job BF: been at his job almost 30 yrs.,

Ex: closed off emotionally, wouldn't talk to me BF: we talk about everything for hours and he really wants my input on decisions,

Ex: skinny runner, BF: very large, muscular, huge broad shoulders (that 30 yr job involves lots of heavy lifting so he's in great shape)

Ex: Shows indifference to the children most of the time, BF: really listens and cares and he plays with them all the time.

Ex: no sense of humor, BF: really funny-my kids even tell me I'm funnier now that I hang out with him

Ex: shallow and legalistic in his faith-very judgmental, BF: truly a Godly man who makes mistakes but loves people enough to see past their mistakes and share God's love with them.

Okay, that's enough...I'll stop there but there are at least a dozen more reasons. And it's so funny because I did not seek out this relationship, it developed from a friendship that had been there for a long time. But he really is all I ever dreamed of dropped in my lap

Now I sound like a love-sick teenager, I know!!!
