    your story gives hope to people like me who is in need of a guide right now. i lost my heart to a man i met online. and i don't know how to take it back. He was wonderful but became cold and distant after awhile. he told me he was just very busy and i try to understand but he is hardly ever on. he never communicates aside from IM and it breaks my heart to let go of this special feeling that i have for him. I love him like i have never done so in my entire life even though i had been in long-term real relationships in the past. he is very special to me, he helped me get over a 6-yr fiance who cheated on me. he was better than him in every way and now i don't know if i can ever forget him. i'm so sad but your story has made me feel alot better. thank you for sharing.. wish you all the best..

    I'm so sorry about your son :(((((. That makes me so sad. We have been together for 9 years. I am also his first wife! We never argue either. Once in a very blue moon. Handful of them too. HA! But you would be shocked to hear how we met!!!!

    :)

    I'll save that for an email

    :))))))

    Thank you. My husband has been through it all with me as well. He ONLY HAS my kids. He loves them and the grand babies to the end of the earth. My husband is a recovering alcoholic, so going through all that with my son, hurt and ANGERED him. It also made him feel absolutely helpless. But we are strong, still hopelessly in love.

    thats soo beautiful...I met my partner at university...he was Gods gift to me and mean that lterally..3 months before I met him I prayed earnestly to God for him to find me someone to love me unconditionally...didnt care what he looked like, didt care if he was poor ( he had to have a good work ethic though) and he had to be kind to my kids.....I didnt think anymore of it.......then on the first night of my second year health promotion tutorial there he was...he loved me instantly..I thought he was a bit of a sloblolol........we started hanging out together after class and the rest is history...Ive given him such a hard time over the years...........but he is my rock and without him I would be up the creek without a paddle......he loves my youngest daughter like his own..he is a drug and alcohol counsellor...

    Sorry to hear about your boy........I hate drugs I really do..my two older kids got mixed up in it........meth....

    Its F@#@ing adults that were supplying it to them......our laws seem to be on the side of the drug dealers let me tell you.

    cheers

    REALLY?

    I had been divorced 5 years and used to take kids in that had been thrown out by their parents. One of my "kids" told me to get on this online dating service. I thought it couldn't hurt. I was on 4 months and he showed up on my profile. he had this thing that said he was a "taxman" then it said "if you want to meet NICE GUY, EMAIL."

    I thought that was funny. so I wrote him this smart A** remark.

    we started emailing. being totally honest. He would encourage me online to do things about jobs, and writing. He'd suddenly wish me luck on interveiws. It was weird, because I just KNEW he was being genuine.

    I write and he encouraged that. we did this for about 2 months total I guess and then we went to phone calls.



    the things we talked about, were family, faith, politics. All the hard stuff. We realized online we even had the same sense of humor, go figure.

    When we finally met in "real" life. It was tense for the first few moments, and then he put his hand on my back.

    You know right above your waist.

    It felt like it was ALWAYS supposed to be there.

    We had a great time. there was very little ice to break because we had actually covered all the things in email before we actually met. The strangest thing is that we neither one had posted a pic of each other, so we neither knew what the other one looked like EXCEPT on the inside.

    The most spectacular thing thing happened that night.

    As normal, I had arranged to meet him in a public place. We met in the parking lot of a fast food restraunt, right next to a MAJOR highway. when our first date was over and he came up to kiss me good night. I SWEAR...EVERYTHING, every sound went away.

    It was only him and I there in that kiss. No trucks barreling down the highway, no cars pulling through the drive through window, just him and I, and our lips.

    He proposed 3 weeks later and we got married 4 months after that.

    We have fought external battles after external battles. My diminishing health. The caregiving and eventualy loss of an elderly realtive for the entirety of our marraige. SEVERE mony issues. The loss of my eldset son to drugs and alcohol. Every major issue you can think of we had it happen to us other than loosing each other, and we NEVER FIGHT. We have had maybe a handful of disagreements.

    I am an abuse survivor. He treats me as if I have a glass rear end. He told me one time, that he never understood why his dad never dated or remarried after his mom died, until he met me. He swears I am his Life...Just as he is mine.

    You know how you always dream of being with someone both here and in Heaven...I know REALLY KNOW we will be. We were always supposed to be togther. I am his first wife, He says its because he had to wait for me. I was 40 when we got married he was 48. I NEVER thought the love stories were true, let alone on the internet, but it can and did happen to us.
