My "Catfish" experience
My "Catfish" experience
I had been dating locally but never really seemed to connect with anyone in the way that I had hoped. After my marriage of 7 years ended in divorce, I have been very cautious not to let any early infatuations cloud my judgment while searching for my soul-mate. In my experience the phrase "love at first site" means exactly what it says and not many couples can sustain that initial surge of attraction. My idea of a life partnership is more suitable to the phrase "love at last site." This phrase takes on a beautiful meaning of it's own and represents a love that grows stronger with each and every day.
It all started when I commented on a friends facebook page and one of his friends, an Australian mom with 2 awesome kids, commented on my comment. We immediately became friends and chatted regularly. Around 6 months later she came to the states to visit some relatives and I was able to meet her in person. Little did I know at the time that she would become my soul-mate some 2 1/2 years later but that is what eventually happened. Through constant communication, trust, and support we got to know each other very well and fell deeply in love.
