I am just curious how you guys met your SO? I've shared my story numerous times and I thought I'd go ahead and share it with you guys. So was it meant-to-be? Was it fate? Are you still searching? Maybe my story will help keep you all positive on finding "the one" because I feel mine was fate. This is how my husband and I met. I used to be one who wasn't all that big into internet relationships, but...
I was living at home with my parents and the only real escape I had from school and them was the internet. At this point in time, I really enjoyed going into Yahoo chatrooms and just meeting people, talking and having fun after school on the computer.
So anyway, I met this person by the name of Guitargod and mine was FlyGirl. We got to talking and we both downloaded Yahoo Messenger. We talked every single day. We became fast friends and I would spill my guts to him about things that bothered me, etc...well, we talked and stayed close, online friends for 2 years until the day my parents kicked me out and I was sent back to Indiana to live with my grandma.
I lost touch with Guitargod and didn't get a chance to tell him I was leaving or anything. So, I'm living in Indiana, got a job, and meet this girl I work with by the name of Courtney. We get to be really good friends and she offers me to come out and meet "The guys" (all of her friends) one night so I could get to know more people around the area. I agreed, but can be pretty shy around a lot of people.
So, she tells me that "the guys" are hanging out at her cousin's house. We drive out there after work and I walked in and met all these people I didn't know. Me, being my shy self, sat down in a chair in the corner while everybody was talking because I didn't really know what to do or say at all. Her cousin came over to me and he started talking to me, asking me if I was alright and stuff like that.
After awhile I loosened up and was able to talk to her cousin. He got me something to drink and we just sat and talked. We both mentioned that we had this internet friend we were growing feelings for and I thought that was kinda cool, so I asked him who she was and he said "FlyGirl" I was just like *my jaw hangs open* So I asked him what his screen name was and he told "Guitargod" I was like...HOLY SHIT!! Guitargod is the same guy that I had talked to for 2 years and got really close to online and I couldn't believe it! We were each other's Yahoo buddies for 2 years and we never knew it until that point in time. The chemisty between on us online and then in person just intensified. To this day, my husband "Guitargod" and I have been together for 7 years and this July 10th we will be married for 5. I have never been happier or more in love than I have with this man and to this day that is why I suppose I'm so grateful for the internet!
