What was your 'selling point'?

I like to think that most relationships has a 'selling point': a point where you realise, "Wow. I'm in love with him/her." What was your selling point and when was it?

Mine was a few days after our first real conversation, when he told me he was left handed. It seems stupid, now that I think about it. We related on so many levels, but being left-handed took it a large step further. Lefty problems...(speaking of which, any other lefties here)?

Me me me! @ lefty xD

Well, I think the "selling point" for me was the fact that I never even realized I was getting romantically involved with her up until one day when I paused and thought about it. I was like, "are we...?! DAYUM!" lol And it hit me like that because the whole thing felt so easy and stress-free, which was a first, lol. She just feels like home to me, and I haven't even met her for real yet. xD

We tried not to be anything more than friends. Neither of us thought a LDR would be something we would even think of being in. After about 6 months of speaking everyday we started to realize we had to meet in person. We did, the moment our eyes met, that was it.

EDIT:
Oddly enough, I am also left handed. Don't you know, lefties use the right side of our brain.

I'm a lefty ^^

I guess my/our selling point was when we both constantly told ourselves and each other we didn't want a relationship, we weren't interested, and then we just continued coming back. Then the first meeting kinda sealed the deal.

WHAT. Lefties unite!! Why have I not talked to y'all earlier. I am SO making an LFAD group, not even kidding...

Hollandia, that is SUCH a cute story!

There were several moments, but I think many of the biggest have been the way he interacts with my cats. He's so incredibly paternal, from buckling them in to the car to being willing to drive four hours roundtrip for me to being willing to wait in the emergency room with me for hours to being willing to come over at 1am when we thought one of them got out. I think it was how they started to look at him, too, how they started to greet him with raised tails, mewls, and purrs. And then beyond all that, it was the way he looked at me on our second or third date and said, "you're the most amazing person... You're going to get me stuck on you, dammit!" But me and my cats got stuck on him too.

My selling point was just being able to maintain a relationship at all. I've been suffering through a lot of health issues and the fact I was able to respond to his long messages with the same length messages (4+ paragraphs) back made me realize just how much I liked him even though I didn't realize it at first. I had no energy to bother with writing or even browsing the internet but after I met him online, I could not stop communicating with him.

His touch. When i went one the first date with him i was VERY ambivalent (in fact i almost canceled on him). It was ok talking to him, and he was nice and all that. But what i really, really liked was that from literarily the second he touched me, i was able to relax. All of a sudden my resistance just melted into nothing. Still, he can just touch my face and it is the most wonderful thing in the world.

And for some reason i am really charmed by his love for cats!

Ok, that might actually work in Sweden.

My SO and I were friends before anything. I knew something was there though but I was still trying to figure out my sexuality so it was very confusing! hehe But one morning, I was sitting at my desk at work and I was just so excited to talk to her. Almost giddy! At that moment I knew I had feelings for her.

I think it was when my then boyfriend told me to tell him I am taken, because he's obviously flirting with me and making me laugh, much more than him.
I'm very oblivious :P

[lyonsgirl]

He forgave me.

[talim]

When I realized I am talking to him every day not only because he needs help with his issues, but because I really want to be around him as much as possible.

BTW, my SO is also left-handed

[LittleBox]

Lefty here too :o I'm ambidextrous but I favour my left hand.

We clicked creatively, I was drawn to his imagination (he's an aspiring writer). His dimples did it for me :P I thought I saw a hint of dimple in one of his pictures and when I asked him he had no idea. He has such ridiculously deep dimples *melts*.

I forgot to mention that her smile was to die for and it made me all sorts of mushy on the inside. hehe It still does to this day.
