We met through a private dating club in Independence, Ohio named Great Expectations. I chose him based on his personal profile, handsome photo and captivating video. We were attracted to each other because of our shared love for our family and desire to continue traveling. During our first hour long phone call, we quickly learned how much we both loved travel. We shared personal stories and our conversation proceeded with ease and left us both wanting more. For the next few weeks we spoke on a daily basis and those conversations lasted for hours. Our first date, arranged by Thomas, consisted of attending a pop-up museum and dinner, ending with a night cap at the wine bar at Crocker Park – Westlake, OH. That first date lasted far-later than either of us expected; which spelled SUCCESS!
