Falling hard for SB, my story

Well, a while back I was seeing this young lady of 26 y.o. and we had a relationship for about 6 months. Falling for her was unplanned, and was something that happened over a period of time, I would say after 2 months. From the start there was physical attraction, and it was one of those cases where the chemistry was instant and we ended up agreeing to have an arrangement and in bed within hours of meeting. She was a very social and open person by nature so we started talking about all kinds of things right away. She would talk about her family, school, work situations, and I would respond with some of my own experiences and crazy stories.
It was through these conversations that I got to know her and her thought process: how she related to her brother whom she loved. How she felt she owed so much to her parents and was afraid to disappoint them. How she liked her work, for now, but was on the look out for something more career oriented in the medical field. She had a good mind, and I think she felt that at her present job she didn't get a full use of the brain power so she was having seconds thoughts. She would also grow a bit defensive when others would ask her 'so you want to do this for the rest of your life?' or similar patronizing questions. And she had that adorable look when she would get angry and the sharp nails would come out.

And because she opened up to me, through the several months that I knew her I got to get closer to her, and that grew into something I had not planned for. Like those situations where you feel that things are going great and everyone is having a great time. But yet getting out of control and taking their own course in the same time. In her case, the possibility I could be seeing other people in the same time may have bothered her. And in my case, I couldn't wait until we met again, and not just for sexual reasons. I just liked her company and sitting next to her, she looked so elegant and in control of herself, like a real lady should always be, at least in my mind.

To the point where all this time later I still remember her fondly. Was it love? Don't know. At least it was very strong 'like'. And if I wasn't married it would have been something beyond 'sugar'. It could have been beyond sugar anyway, but....
