I met the love of my life on eHarmony just a few months ago. I had dated a few of my matches but did not spark with any of them. Just as I was about to cancel my subscription, Greg's profile was sent to me. He lived local, had a nice profile, but only had one picture and it was so far away that you couldn't even see his face. I always thought I would "know my prince when I saw him" so since I couldn't even see Greg's face, I thought about passing. Something in my gut told me to reach out to him. After going through guided communication, we had our first "real" conversation over email. I knew right away that I wanted to know more. By our first phone call, I was hooked. I needed to meet him. Our first date was on a Friday night and our second and third dates were that same weekend. By Monday morning, I knew that I had met the love of my life. It took a few weeks to confirm that they were not just "butterflies" but we are now three months in and I could not imagine being without him. He is truly my knight in shining armor. Thank you eHarmony for reintroducing me to love.
I'm a e Harmony success story too... After being widowed 6 years ago, suddenly, at the age of 27 - he was 26, and had been together for 12 years, married for 6 of those years. I had almost given up on finding the right someone. But, all of that changed in Feb. of 2007, when I signed up for e Harmony and met my fiance, Vincent. We decided to meet in person at a local resturant in Austin. And we dated for 3 weeks, before I met his kids. The day we had been dating 2 months and 1 week, I found out I was 4 weeks pregnant. I told him over dinner that night. We've been together. We now have a beautiful 4 week, and 2 day old baby girl. And on December 23rd Vincent proposed to me, and on Christmas Eve, he proposed to me, and I accepted. So, now... I am looking at planning a wedding in 2008. I am very happy, and very much in love, with my better half... I am proof, that life does go on...
“There is nothing more attractive than self-awareness, personal responsibility, and a sense of wonder about the world. Wrapped in a nice package would be nice, too, but then I'm a guy and we somehow think that's really important.”
“I'm a tiny, snarky nerd who tires to be not so nerdy by expanding her horizons. I'm not by any stretch of the imagination a girly-girl but I appreciate the finer qualities like cute shoes and sparkly lip-gloss. Currently I am looking to learn how to properly Salsa without looking like a complete rhythm-less clod. ”
