    In 2004, my husband was studying Electrical Engineering and I was in the last year of the Nutrition course. He and his friends were planning a barbecue with some friends of mine and set up a meeting at our academic center. We met each other in this day, at the university.
    He has taken my fone number, we had about 3 dates and, after 13 days, we became boyfriend and girlfriend. I don’t believe it was a fist love view, but we have learned to love each other very quickly.
    In 2007, he graduated in Electrical Engineering and moved to Brasília to do a Master. We continued dating even with a long distance between us. It was hard because we can’t afford to see each other frequently. On average we met each other 4 times a year.
    In 2009, he finished his master and we decided that we stand enough time separated. I let my job, my family and my friends to live this love story.
    We still don’t have a wedding, but we are planning to do a party in November 2011.
    We are together for 6 year. I think that the secret of a good relationship is ever respecting each other. The respect must be even before love. To respect the other’s freedom, opinions, and feelings can make you a good partner to anyone. (Andressa)

    I knew my ex-husband in my house, he was my brother’s friend. We became friend too, and after few months we became boyfriend and girlfriend. After 4 years, he gave me a flower with a beautiful ring inside, and we became fiancée, and after a year, in 1982, we got marriage. We went to Blumenau to honeymoon. Our wedding was in Dom Bosco Church, and the party was in Iate Club de Brasília. My dress was very beautiful.

    In 1988 I fallen in love and we went to live together after same month. In 1990, we decided to marry, but we didn't make a party. We got married only in registry office. My marriage was good, but it's finished. In the last years I had felt that the love had turned friendship. Then, we decided to divorced because we would like that the respect didn't finish. I had been got married during eleven years. I felt very much the end of my marriage, but, nowadays I am happy.(Dalva)

    Some years ago my sister was visiting her ex-mother-in-law because her other son (my sister’s ex-brother-in-law) was with some problems. Even with the end of the relationship my sister still keeping a good contact with that family. But who could imagine that she will know her future husband in the ex’s houses.
    He was the administrator of the building where her ex lived and was also a friend of the family. They stay talking a long time, changed e-mails and phone numbers and a few days later they had a date and started a dating.
    Everything happened so fast, my sister graduated in the same month and three or four months ago they decided to get married. My mother and I almost became crazy because we organized the marriage practically alone. But in the day the party was wonderful and now I have the best nephew of the world. (Lara)

    I met my husband the first time in January of 2003. I was at a party with my best girl friend when he approached, then we started talking. We stayed together all the night and the end of the party he invited me to come out on Sunday evening. On Sunday we have gone a Coffee House and we stayed for there many hours. The next week we were talking a lot to phone. Then, we started to go out together on the weekends. We started dating and dated for two years. We were so right about our love that in 2005 we married. Our honeymoon was in Ouro Preto. We live very, very happy together. We love and respect each other very much. This year we did five years of marriage and we had another honeymoon. Our Love is beautiful, do not you think?(Elisângela)

    In 2002 I met my wife for first time in the gym. Soon we became friends and frequently we left in the weekend together. Over time I realized I was fallen in love. In 2004 I invited her to have dinner and she accepted. When we were talking I asked her to date with me but she said she was not sure. One week later I had gave up when she called to me. She wanted to leave and talk to me and I told her I accepted. Then she said she wanted to do a “test drive” with me. Three years ago we got engaged and we have got married since 2009. Well, next step? We want to have a beautiful baby like her.

    Marriage


    I met my wife ten years ago, in a dancing course of Gafieira and Forró. We´ve danced togheter during some classes and we’ve started dating. We got married three years after that.
    I always thought that married life could be boring and limited but, while the time is gone, I’ve changed my opinion.
    Now, after seven years of marriage, I realize that my thoughts was completely silly. Like a husband, I must to share some things but I win others. Nowadays, I have a routine that alows me a health life and I feel peace and tranquility. One of the aspects that makes me feel good is that when I ‘ve compared my single life with my married life, so, I prefer the married life than the single life because when I was single, I lived alone in a flat and I doesn’t know many people in the town.
    Me and my wife make plans, do many tasks together and have a lot of fun with our friends when we go out together.
    There are life after wedding! Oh, Yes!
    I feel completed and I wouldn’t change my life for a single life. There is a time for each experience in our lives and now I’m enjoying the married life. I hope it’ll be forever.

    I met my wife when we were studying. We lived in a hostel for students. We get married five years later. In 1993, under a tree mango, on the backyard of the house of my future father-in-law. It was midday and the sun was hot. I still was not bald. The wedding was simple and fun. Between dating and marriage has spending more than 20 years. In this period already happened many slaps an kisses. Finally, we have two teenagers and i love my family.

    I've been married for one year. I met my husband (his name is Rafael) many years ago, when we were a child, at school. But, I've moved from that school and never see him anymore. Many years after, we meet us in a friend's party and our love story began on that moment. We engaged for 4 years, but we broke up our relationship and stayed alone for six month. I suffered a lot, because I loved him so much...
    After the storm, we resolved all our problems, and last year we get married. We really need to pass all these problems to be stronger. Nowadays we are very very happy!! (Gisela Cabral)

    I met my wife in May, 2001, 24, at a good restaurant in Brasília. Actually, we’ve had some friends in common, so my colleague Maria introduced her to me when we were chatting in the University.
    Then we dated for 2 (two) years in Brasília, going to the cinema, eating at good restaurants, walking in the park, travelling to others cities, dancing at parties etc.
    In December, 2003, 20, we got married in a beautiful church with a private party for friends and relatives. So, we have been married and very happy for 6 (six) years and a half.
    Now, my wife is pregnant and we will have a baby soon.
