Yes! And it is truly awesome and wonderful!! The result is long-lasting love and happiness!

Disaster.
Mad, blind love... not a good thing

The lawsuit is still pending! All kidding aside, I was hit and hit hard and couldn't be happier after all these years.

Yes, I have!
The result: 31 years and counting
2 kids...grown and married
Thank you Cupid

I was totally smitten, only luck and the grace of God kept me from being completely broken hearted, some of us get lucky in life. Thats what keeps the myth of wedded bliss alive?

I've loved obviously. I have children..but madly and blindly..No. Not sure I believe in all that. I think some people just get lucky, simple as that, and my hats off to them.

A broken heart.

NO

The first time a friend for life..
The last time a 19 year relationship...marriage.......and an eye opener..I am not blind any more..I can see things clearly and still we are here..I think after the initial "blindness" wears off you see the other person for what they really are......human with faults.....and then we decide if they are faults and flaws that we can live with..I can see through the fault to the man I blindly loved.......I suppose he decided to love me flaws and all...Neither of us are blind anymore.........therefore I think you get to the deeper love.....the believing the other person is perfect is gone....Was it easy....Hell No..

Falling Madly and Blindly in love sounds very delicious, but Idid not experience that heavenly trip as marriages in my country are arranged, so loves comes here afterward. But, by nature I am a very romantic person (inspite of my monkish leanings), and I read a lot of romantic Persian poetry and my native language master poets. But love of Kupid kind it not the only love that matters. I think the love for you parents and family is of more substance and love of humanity is of the most noble kind.

Not yet -- still waiting. I think the last time he tried I must have moved at the last minute.

Yup, married the old geezer and been married for nearly 23 years.

Married the geezer and we've been together for over 25 years and I still love him to death. Please pass me the bow, I might have to use it at some stage this week!

I suppose he hit me in the butt my first 2 marriages but he nailed me dead center the last time and we got married. I think I'll let the arrow remain embedded just where it is.

Up to now I hadnt thought of it as cupid, but yes, I think that little mischief maker was out the night I met my sweetheart.. I have been completely and utterly smitten for the first time in my life. These feelings allowed me to get to know the man much better and now it is (drum roll please!) true love.

Yep he got me big time!

The last time that happened to me I slowly bled to death over 6 years.

Yep, and its still stuck to me after 33 years

Yep, and it was painful.

Yes, and it has definately been a rocky road.

No, I have not been hit by one of Cupid's arrows. However, I have been on the receiving end of another being struck with this mad and blinding love (or so the man claimed!). I certainly was the "victim" but it wasn't what I would call love! ~sigh~
I can't say that I've ever been completely in love at all levels with any man.

I'm always madly and blindly in love every time until I become disillusioned. The result? Lots of divorces.

Cupid is a juvenile delinquent who belongs in jail!

Been hit twice and the only good thing that happened was my 4 beautiful dughters. Wouldn't mind being hit again if the right person came along.

I've been hit three times....this last time has been very good and very bad.

I've thought alot about it. I can't say for sure any more if Ihave Sometimes I can believe that I have been then for some reason I feel like I have wanted it so bad that I let myself believe that I have when in reality I'm just wishing and dreaming. The heart aches and the mind dreams but is it really true...sigh

RESULT.....4 AWESOME KIDS.....AND AFTER YEARS OF TRAINING...A GREAT HUBBY!!!
