I noticed Chuck (pk321), just before Thanksgiving-2008. He had been checking out my (runtster’s) profile, so I responded by saying, “Hey, I see you peekin’! Thus, our journey began. It was shortly after that encounter, that I answered his chat invitation. He sent me his phone number and right in the middle of our chat, I made a surprise phone call to him. We realized we had much in common.

Communication through e-mails, continued for the next couple of weeks and I asked him if he would like to join me at a restaurant, at a convenient half-way point. It was an easy 20 minutes for both of us. Making a long story short, we were caught in a huge traffic jam due to icy weather. In spite of the traffic and cold, we still had a great time on our cells, talking and laughing, even honking and waving, as we momentarily passed side by side. It was our very first glimpses of each other as we both quickly glanced.

We eventually met at our destination, which also became the restaurant that Chuck asked me to marry him on Valentine’s Day, 2009! It was awesome! We were married May 16, 2009. It was one of the most joyous days of my life! We have been married for 6 months, and I must say, he is the most caring, giving, patient and just the most wonderful husband a woman could ever have.

God answered our prayers. Thank you Christian Mingle for being the vessel that God used to join us together – it was so much fun and still is! Thank you for letting us share our story.
