How They Met

09/09/2018

Four years ago in Parma, Idaho... Tired of the influence of hustle culture, Melissa sold everything to spend a year in Alaska, hoping to find rest, clarity, and a man. After 10 months of growth and prayer, but with no prospects on the horizon, she felt it was time to try something crazy: She joined eHarmony. Baring her soul in a profile among thousands, she prayed for the right man to take notice. Two weeks later, after thumbing through hundreds of recommended candidates, she began searching the "What if?" pile. Enter Kyle-- a handsome, masculine, fun-loving Cross-fit junkie with a happy, kind smile and genuine heart. Perfect. And he lived in Oklahoma...maybe not so perfect. But she was an adventurer, so Melissa took a chance and sent him a smiley face. Later that night, she received not one, but THREE ecstatic responses, with lots of emojis and exclamation marks. In Kyle's words, he couldn't wait to “get to know such an amazing girl!!" Melissa was absolutely stunned, being accustomed to the usual wait time of 2-3 days for a surface level response. After some excited conversations, she knew she had to ask about Kyle's spiritual beliefs - the make it or break it question. To her shock, he told her everything that SHE believed in depth. He really was perfect for her. Ever a thoughtful daughter, she immediately called her parents at 3am to let them know. She was going to marry Kyle Craig. Six days from the first smiley face, Kyle booked a flight to Alaska (an extremely attractive move on his part). Over the next six weeks, he continued to steal her heart from afar. Melissa found herself crying often, overwhelmed with his gentle, steadfast love and pursuit. She felt the incredible love of God to bring such a man into her life. On October 26th Kyle flew 3,950 miles for their first date, and to steal Melissa's first kiss - a difficult undertaking. One day Melissa will get Kyle to write a book on how to make a woman fall in love through texting.
