I found my soul-mate through online dating. It was aclose friend that had introduced me to online dating. I was quite successful,you know like any other woman in Canada in her early 30s. I had asuccessful career, a decent home filled with decent furnishing. But never hadmuch luck with relationships. I've dated a few guys, but it just never worksout. Friends often compare me to Sarah Jessica Parker from Sex and the City,and the constant failure in relationships has made me pretty desperate. I wasso sick of dates ending in failure.
I was on the verge of breakdown, when I bumped into afriend in a cocktail party. We were once very close during university as weshared the same dorm room. But afterwards we lost touch. It was great to seeher after such a long time. But I must confess when she introduced me to herboyfriend, I was a bit jealous. He was quite a handsome man! Lucky girl, when Icomplemented her, she asked me about my date. I responded with ?Well, I amsingle for a while,? but that's all I could say. When she repeated thequestion, I smiled and tried to avoid the subject. She called me the very nextday and asked me to meet for a cup of coffee. Even though I had second thoughtsof about not going to meet my friend, I gave in for old time's sake.
Any ideas what the first thing she asked me was? Iwouldn't have shared my problems with anyone else, but she was a good friend,and I trusted her, so I told her of my failure in relationships. Afterlistening patiently, she casually suggested that I try online dating. Evenbefore I could protest, she insisted that online dating is much different thannormal dating. She explained how she had been having the same trouble, but thatshe heard from a trustworthy friend about a reliable online dating site, so shegave it a shot, and that's how she met her current boyfriend. I decided to tryit out later on that night.
I created my profilein a couple of popular online dating sites. I met and dated quite a fewinteresting guys through these online dating sites before I met my husbandPaul. We dated for about 6months and then got married last Christmas. Today Ican't ask anything more in life for I have found my best friend and soul-matein Paul. Thank you online dating; you've brought sunshine into my life!
