Gosh...where do I start? *lol*
Last July, I started a new job & was excited about the new possiblities of having a good social life. My previous job worked me like a dog & even though I attempted dating, it was nearly impossible with my job. I had been on a few Dating Sites but the men were just not my type. Quality over Quantity! Well, I was ready to give up with the online thing when I received an "icebreaker" on my Yahoo Personals Ad. Now, I had strict rules when it came to online dating. If you don't have a pic, then I don't look at your profile. I know it sounds harsh, but I had been burned badly with this one & I wasn't taking any chances. Sure enough, the icebreaker didn't have a picture. I checked the box to deleted it but something told me to look at it. What did I have to lose? So, I opened it & thought I'd look at this profile. I was amazed with what I had found. His words were as if I had wrote them. His sense of humor poured out in his words & he literally had me laughing out loud when I read it. Also, hidden in his profile he had a couple pictures & he was incredibly handsome! So, I decided to send him an icebreaker back. Nearly instantly, I received an email. We shot emails back & forth through out the next day. Later that night, we decided to talk on the phone. I found that he went to College right across the street from where I lived, he grew up & lived only blocks away & we frequented the same places. I couldn't believe that I hadn't seen him before! We decided to meet at a local coffee shop on Sunday afternoon & I was completely hooked. We ended up going out to dinner the next night & again a couple nights later. After that, we couldn't get enough of each other. A month later, we were talking about how great things are going & he looked me in the eye with tears welling up and told me that he thought he was falling in love with me. I had been feeling the same but was afraid that I had mistaken lust for love.
It was love after all & I could never ask for anything better. Next Monday we will celebrate our first year together since that was the date of our first meeting. Also, we just moved in together last week & have plans to get engaged after he graduates from school next Spring. Big Plans for this relationship!
