Being a widower with 5 young children I had all but gave up on finding love ever again. I tried match, eharmony, family members setting me up. It was frustrating on many levels. I finally decided that it probably wasn't going to happen. I was playing on singlesnet and met someone who actually lived within 30 miles of my house. A couple of emails and we decided to IM. After one afternoon of IMing it was clear we had a lot in common. It got to where we could finish each other's sentences and post the exact same thing. After an exchange of phone numbers, I nervously called her after work. It was uncanny how easy it was to talk her. We agreed we should meet. We went to a sports bar and played ping pong.( How's that for a first date?) After meeting in person it was clear that we were meant to be together. She's truly a beautiful, intelligent and caring individual. Myself and my children are fortunate that she entered our lives. I absolutely love her.
