'Thank God for services like yours. I have found the man of my dreams and it wouldn't have happened without your help. My sister convinced me to join saying "you never know what might happen". She of course had success on your site as well, finding her husband.

Nathan caught my interest right away and I was a bit hesitant at first thinking, I'm sure there is something wrong with him. But I sent him a smile and he responded right away. From then on it was almost constant communication. He lived in Virginia and I in Texas.

We met for the first time at my friend's house in D.C. We had a wonderful weekend together and knew we had to take it further. I went to visit him the following month in VA. He asked me to marry him a month later on Christmas. I, of course said yes, and in Jan. him and his son packed up and moved to Tx.

We tentatively planned a wedding for May 31st of this year. We knew we wanted to spend our lives together and we knew we had both found what we had been looking for. Having both been married before we knew the type of person we wanted and basically wanted to make sure our kids got along and were okay with it.

Everything was great and we decided we didn't want to wait any longer. We married on Feb. 3, 2006. It has almost been 3 months since we tied the knot and when we brag about how happy we are people tell us 'oh, you're still in the honeymoon stage, it will wear off'. But I disagree. He is a wonderful man and treats me like queen. I have never been so happy.

His son finally has what he's always wanted, siblings and a family. My 3
kids have a wonderful step dad who loves them and is great with them. We truly believe that God lead us to each other, and we are so thankful for that. Much thanks to you guys and the work you are doing.
