OK. Around July of 2005, I was having problems with the liberal loonie I was dating. We had chatted a bit on a few “fun” threads here on FR, mostly and I freepmailed her about some problems I was having. We chatted a bit and I even flirted with/hit on her a bit at that point, but denied it. ;-)
A few months later, on another thread she and I ran into each other again, and I made it known that I was now single. After some prodding, I got her phone number and called her one night, we talked for 2 hours a night for a couple months until I flew out to DC and we met. She was my tour guide as well, we had a great time, and knew we were meant for each other. Within a few months we had met each others’ families, she’d come out to Ohio, where I was living at the time, and I’d go to DC, going back and forth about every couple weeks from then until I moved to MD.
The rest is history! I proposed to her in November of 2006, and moved to Maryland in April 2007 to be with her. She could’ve moved out to Ohio and considered it, but economically it made more sense for me to move. Besides, I’d never left the city I was born in, so I figured...why not!
Two weeks from now, we’ll be on our honeymoon!
Hopefully, that was a good Monday-Morning-Pre-Coffee summary!
Wow...that makes my mushy-romantic ol’ self think there’s hope *happy sigh* Congrats!
