The greatest love of all lies deep within
For you two it is the beginning

| POF Success Stories
Posted: 2/16/2005 12:00:38 PM | Hi everybody at POF !
Here's a success story for you:
I've met someone, dionstarfire specifically, here on POF, this summer. We exchanged emails for a while, and finally spoke on the phone on Father's day. That first telephone conversation ended up going on until after 3 AM.
I wanted to meet him as soon as possible, but he was hesitant. I just didn't want to invest a lot of energy and emotion into something that might not be going anywhere. I have a tendency to sort of invent the perfect boyfriend in my mind and then project that on the individual, missing the real person entirely. I wanted to meet the real person before I had a chance to invent a romantic fiction.
Acouple of days after the phone call, we met at a Second Cup on Bank (downtown Ottawa) during his lunch break, so that it would be public, and we had a fixed amount of time. (I figured if I'm meeting someone for the first time: 1) he could be a nasty person looking for a victim, so I wanted it to be public: nothing to be frightened of and 2) he might be a bad match. If we're meeting for dinner and a movie, I'm stuck with this person for the entire evening. If I have a limited amount of time, and it turns out that I like this person, I can make a real date, to meet up another time.) It was about the same distance from my office as from his.
When we met he was over-tired, over-worked, over caffeinated, and basically stressed out, but otherwise cute. :)
We spent every spare minute we had together from then on, moved in together August 27th, and he proposed Christmas. We're getting married August 13th, at my Dad's farm.
He’s the one person in my life who hasn’t tried to change my hair, my weight, my job, my political choices, etc. *Everyone* I know wants me to be something different than what/who I am. On the other hand, he’s been supportive of the changes I have made (new job, etc.) I feel like I can finally breathe.
I’ve left my profile up, hoping that it stimulates some ideas about what you might want to include in your own profile. If you have a really short profile with minimal information in it, what will stimulate someone to start thinking about you?
Hope this encourages you to keep trying ! | |

Posted: 2/16/2005 1:25:01 PM | How do people succeed in life? Do they succeed with earthly possessions? Do they succeed with careers? Do they succeed with religion? The answer is yes we do. Anything that we dream of doing and accomplish is a success story. Well, this is my success story.
I was introduced to this site by a good freind of mine with much skepticism. I felt like there was no way that anyone could meet someone online that you could be so compatible with or that you would want to even get to know more than a freind. I mean what if I met someone far away that I really enjoyed talking with and was interested in? I couldn't have a long distance relationship. Come on that was just stupid! So why bother with this? Needless to say I got bored one day and this is where it begines.
I posted an introduction without a pic. CROSSFADE was the first welcome followed by this beautiful lady. All she wrote was "welcome to this highly addictive place". I veiwed her profile and thought maybe I would say Hi and thank her for the welcome even though her profile clearly stated "just looking for freinds". What did I have to lose? I wasn't looking for love over the internet. I was just looking for freinds myself.
So she responded by a nice reply by saying "ya can't have too many freinds"...... I agreed. This is how I started to know this wonderful lady. It got to be everytime I was on I would see her and e-mail her to say "hi what's up?" She would quickly reply back. I couldn't wait to receive the next e-mail from her.
We e-mailed eachother alot! I was even brave enough to give her my phone number. In total amazement she gave me hers. It sat there for a few days. Well anyhow a few days later... why I did this I still have no clue. I just picked the phone up and called her without any thought of why or what I was going to say. I found myself hearing the most beautiful voice I have ever heard in my life. I also found myself wondering what the **** did I just do? It was about a 30 second conversation that I have no clue to what I said and to this day haven't a clue. All I picked up was that she wanted to talk to me and to call her in a few because she was doing dishes. So I did and we talked!
We talked everyday for hours and got to know eachother very well. To the point that we needed to see eachother face to face. Well she got on that big jet airplane and came to see me. I discovered that I was wrong about not being able to fall in love with someone online. I had already fallen in love with her but the first time I looked into her eyes it occured to me that I was about to fall in love with this lady for the second time. You really have to get to know the person for who they are on the inside and not for who they are on the outside but when I saw her I was amazed by how beautiful she really was. This was no picture infront of me this time. This was sheer beauty and I got to fall in love with her all over again and I did.
I was not looking for a success story but I was blessed with one. I want to thank Jimi for helping!
Shannon, I love you and I will dance with you forever!

Posted: 2/17/2005 9:16:55 AM | Well.....Where the hell do I start. lol.
When I first put my profile up here in November 2004 I was looking for someone to be with but after I met a few people off this site in person I changed my mind. They were a bunch of jerks and liars. So I changed my profile to looking for friends because I was in a new town and didn't really have any friends.
One day while posting in other people's introductions I came across Italian Touch so I said hello. The next day he emailed me and said thanks. So I looked at his profile and found him to be interesting and thought he would be a good friend. So we continued to email back and forth for a while and realized that we had way too much in common. So we exchanged phone numbers. I never expected him to call me but he did and like he said, the first conversation was very short and neither one of us could tell you what was said. All I know is that he called me back and we haven't been able to get enough of each other since then. Or conversations average about 5-6 hours a day. I had totally fallen in love with someone that I have never met before. He was like no one else that I have ever known. I knew there was something special about him and that we had a real connection.
February 11, 2005 - I flew out to Michigan to see him and I was totally unprepared for just how much in love we are with each other. I didn't get nervous but felt so comfortable around him. Being with him felt like nothing I have ever experienced before. I felt like we had been together for years. In just a few days we became major factors in each others lives. His friends even went so far as to say that we looked like we had been together for years. And his parents love me too.
February 16, 2005 - I had to go back home. That was the saddest day of my life. I could have easily given up everything I had just to stay there with him but unfortunately I have some pets that I can't live without so I really had to go home. The pets were the only thing keeping me from staying with Stephen. I did a lot of crying and had to force myself to get on that plane.
Now I'm at home making plans and arrangements to get a moving truck and VISA to move to Michigan. Yup, I'm moving in with Stephen over the next few months. I'm leaving my family, friends and health care to be with the one person that I cannot live without.
Stephen, I love you and I will be with you again soon. | |
