    I found an add for a Christian, Dating, and Friendship (CDF) service and picked his add, We started writing letters and talking on the phone every day on April 25, 2002. He lived in New York and me in South Carolina. He had just started at a Walmart there and couldn't transfer here for 6 months. He came here to South Carolina on September 16, 2002, and we got married April 5, 2003. We have been together ever since and still in love just as much as the day we met through letters. We have 2 kids: Anna Grace, who is 6, and Jacob, who is 4.

    We were friends first for 2 years, both in different relationships. Then after us both getting out of our relationships and being single for a year..... he told me that he has been in love with me since the first time we met. He was jealous of the last guy and if he have never told me, he would have regretted it the rest of his life. Now, married for 7 years with 3 children :) And happier then ever!

    We met in 7th grade back in 1998. We dated for like a month and we were each other's first kiss. We remained friends and then he ended up staying back and then dropped out in 2001. Fast forward to 2008 - he finds me on Myspace and we starting talking again. We were both in relationships at that time and would just talk to each other every now and then. I broke up with my ex and started talking to him one night online and come to find out that he had also just ended his relationship a few weeks before. We went to the movies as friends and from there we started talking every night and then a month later we became an official couple. Then on May 20, 2011, he proposed :)

    We found each other on PerfectMatch.com. He requested an introduction, and I loved his profile. we have been together since. After our first date a friend asked if I liked him, and if I thought i would hear from again, and I realized that my heart would shatter if I did not hear from him. We have been married for 9 years, toghether for almost 12. Best years of my life.

    I met my fiance at a part time job. Haha.
    I was finishing my senior year of high school, and he had finished his second year of college. My Uncle was my boss, and funny enough he had told the guys that worked there not to get any ideas. xD
    It took a while before I began to talk to him, because he was shy. He also thought that I was a lesbian at the time for various reasons that we need not get into lol.

    I talked to him one time after shift ended and after that, we started to joke around at work and stuff. His best friend asked me out, though. He said that my fiance didn't have any interest, so I said yes. We dated for maybe a week, before I found out that my now fiance actually really did have feelings.

    We moved in together 3 months later. That was nearly 3 years ago, and we're getting married on April 28th. :)

    Sounds like a Kdrama haha.

    In the gulf war.
    She was an Iraqi refugee and I moved her to a safe holding zone.
    I held her hand all night as she was scared becuase my because the allies had commenced bombing again.
    I helped her to move through the holding zones and evantually managed to get her and her family to a relocation site
    Neither of us could speak a word to each other but we just knew if you know what I mean.
    So I went back to find her and like I said we knew.
    She came to England and we are now married and I've learnt some Iraqi and she has learned much more English
    We will be together forever

    Wow, this is one of the most romantic things I've ever read! :heart:

    Facebook. He followed me for a year and I just ignored him for the most part. He sent me a message asking me to dinner, very casually... I blew it off. But then I started to pay more attention, we chatted. We talked on the phone. He came to my house and basically didn't leave. We were together for 9 months before getting married at dusk in an urban park just a month ago. He said I was the most beautiful, that he wanted me like no one else, and still tells me this nearly every day... it's a nice thing to hear :-) I feel pretty lucky.

    Ugh, I love that! :D

    We dated when we were 15/16 for a brief week. Fell out of touch by the end of high school and I moved away to college. Was "re-introduced" to him by a co-worker a few months after I moved back to my hometown and we've been together ever since.
