I met the love of my
life on the Internet. We never meet in a chat room,
on a message board, at a public site or through the
personals. Meeting someone on the Internet or anywhere
else, for that matter, didn’t even occur to me.
Starting a relationship was the last thing on my mind.
It all started when a girlfriend asked me to go to Ocala,Florida
for the weekend. I enjoy singing, and especially karaoke,
and wanted to do that while we were there. But, how
to go?
I browsed the AOL member directory and find someone
who lived in Ocala and ask them. I found several profiles
of Ocala residents, including Anthony’s. I sent
him an e-mail asking where to go for karaoke in Austin.
His reply was "If you have family, friends, health
and music, what more do you need?" It really touched
my heart and I told him so.
On March 11th we were talking by IM after I returned
from an evening of karaoke with some friends. I was
telling about the evening, how much I missed, and that
it just wasn’t the same anymore without him there
with me. Tony asked me if I ever wanted to get married.
I told him that I that I might. The next thing I knew,
he sent me an e-mail at 3:22 a.m. and asked "Will
you marry me?" I responded, "Yes, but you
will have to ask me again in person."
On April 8, 2005, I moved to Florida to be with the
love of my life.
This experience has taught me many things: love can
come when you least expect it, love comes in unexpected
ways and if love between two people is meant to be,
it will happen. They will find each other in one or
the other way.
I very much cherish my wedding
ceremony at Ocala.
