After many failed dates along our adult lifetime we both felt like giving up. Feeling like we were never meant to meet "The one". Much thanks to both of our moms giving us a nudge to try online dating. We did, but, both hesitantly thinking "Oh this isn't going to work but we shall see". After thousands of questions we both set forth on our new dating venture. He along with I both had yet again failed dating attempts. I had actually quit the site for a few days due to feeling frustrated. Then one day I decided to get back on there. I am glad that I did. Mainly because when I did get back on the site...I came across John's profile and for me it was love at first site. So I sent him a smile and nervously waited for him to respond back. It wasn't long before I received a response back with a smile and a "Hey! How are you doing?" Yes, I did the girlish squeal and was very excited to start talking to this guy. So with many emails and texts back and forth we FINALLY met for our first date a few weeks later at a coffee shop. And the rest is history. We found over our relationship that we travel well together and with that we have been on numerous road trips, have traveled out of the country together and have flown to other destinations as well. What we have really bonded over in our relationship is our love for food. Yes, this diabetic still loves to eat....but with caution. Hahah! Luckily we eat pretty healthy so it's not an issue. We cook together a lot and when we are cooking dinner together is when we talk about our day the good and bad of it. It is our favorite part of the day. When we aren't traveling or cooking we love to go on hikes. Always nice to get out in nature and see all the beauty around us. While we have enjoyed this individual time together building the foundations of our relationship we are excited to build the next chapter of our lives. We are particularly excited about starting a family together. It's a blessing to have found your soulmate!
