So, I was writing about my realtionship in another post in the Private Forum and I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread about our Significant Others and tell how we met and all! And for people who don't have one right now, tell us what your dream date would be like!!
My FH and I met online 4 years ago. It was a really rough time for me because my Father had just passed away, I was getting ready to move away from the home I had lived in for 13 years, my mom and I were ALWAYS fighting, and school was horrible. I was going through a severe depression and I planned on comitting suicide that night. I was going to take 3 bottles of my mothers pills...I dont even know what kind they were but I figured if I took enough of them, it would do the trick. So before I did it, I signed online around 8 pmto send an email to everyone telling them what I was doing. All of a sudden, and Instant message popped out, and it was my friend from NY who I had met at camp the summer before! She started going on and on about this cute guy who she had recently befriended and wanted me to talk to him for her and see if he liked her. I decided to do it since one last good deed couldnt hurt, little did I know I wouldn't be going anywhere that night!
I started talking to him and he seemed like a really cool guy. We exchanged pics and stuff but finally I asked him if he liked my friend...he said he only liked her as a friend, but he was VERY interested in getting to know me better. I had only planned on talking to him for a few minutes more...but minutes turned in to hours and hours turned in to 6 am. And pretty soon I forgot all about my plan to kill myself..I was smiling and laughing for the first time in God knows how long
So we talked for a few months as friends and then when we knew we couldnt deny how we felt about each other, we decided to try a Long Distance Relationship. We talked on the phone every single day and before I knew it, we were saying "I love you" to each other. I always used to feel uncomfortable when guys I hadn't been dating fora while said they loved me...but with him it just felt right.
Eventually we met in person a few times and thats when we really fell in love. We shared out first kiss on my front porch at 3 am on May 30, 2003 (is it sad thatI remember the exact date and time? lol) and later on, he moved to my town just so we could be together...4 years later, were engaged and planning an April 2008 wedding!!! He doesn't beilieve it, but he saved my life on that night that we met...and for that I will always love him.So thats our story!! Whats everyone elses?!?! hehe!Edited by: tootpla
