bride napping = prince charming on white horse
women loves a man who can sweep her off her feet and he carries her into bedroom....

 :2funny:  wait...that was old men's tales...

My parents had the old classic...see the photo...fall in love with photo.

But we have a history in our family...it's the women who catches the men.

That's in a way a problem for heroes...they tend to be not selective, nor are they ever worried about choosing...in a way they have too many to choose from and then contemplate too much, too late at times.

My mom caught my dad.  Similar love story with most of my uncles and aunties...

Most are typical love story about singing, music, and ball toss...
I ain't got any singing nor music talents...all I had was ball toss...and they always say you need to find someone with ball toss skills you like...well it's never happened to me...

I am a hero so no singing nor music talents is gonna help when the zombie apocalypse comes...I'm pretty sure ball tossing skills will be more useful...just saying.  O0

So he fell in love with a picture without ever seeing her. Wow.

My mother was from a rich family thatproduced opium to sell to the Chinese. My father was an orphan. Only had a mother. He traveled to the country side where my mother lived. Saw my mother and fell in love. However, my mother didn't really like my father. Not only that but my grandparents didn't want my mother to date my father because he was from a poor family. So, my mother avoided my father. My father came many times to tried to talk to my mother but she refuses to acknowledge him. He then came to visit some of the village girls yet his heart and eyes was set on my mother. He could never come close to her house because grandma was always outside with a stick and yelled at my dad. So far away.. he couldn't only stared. She finally gave in after her sister passed away and she didn't want to live the same town because it was too painful for her with all the memories. She agreed to marry my father. Years later he told my mother that "You know... all those times that I came to your hometown.. and when I passed by your house, I always look to see if you are outside so I can catch a glimpse of you"... "No matter who I was talking... I was always missing you". TRUE LOVE... I hope that my marriage will last as long as my parents.

So she decided to just leave town with him and that’s the only reason, no love from the beginning.

My parents met in Paris, France.

You must be the few young members in here since your parents met after Laos or were they always living in France?

The story is too long to tell.. but eventually my mom gave in and started dating my dad for 6 months before she decided to marry him. He was there for her during the difficult passing of her best friend (sister).

I'm going to make a fake story now about how I met your mother and with dementia or old timer disease, I am going to stick to that story.

I met your mother on PH...   :2funny:

They were born in Laos but moved to France. My dad for university and my mom for work.

I'm not that young.  :D

My uncle moved to France for education as well.
