Our LOVE...Our story...


Aj and I met on one of a dating site. It's a friendship and dating site that brings people together from all over the world. I had viewed her profile first and was on the process of sending her a message when she looked to see that I had visited her profile and didn't leave a message which I actually did and so she also sent me a message.I think our messages went out at the same time. She thought I visited her profile and just left. We laugh about this now thinking how silly we were and also when we read our old messages. As most of the couples, we also started out as friends, getting to know each other well. We were both somewhat shy and cautious asking questions about each other trying to get to know each other more. As our friendship grew, we both felt that we wanted more. We started looking for each other online and waiting for each other to get off to work just to chat (not minding the time difference). We both liked each other instantly, our fondness and love grew the more we chatted. After about 3 months of hinting with each other that we were interested with each one another, I finally made that nervous move to ask her for more than friendship.I remember at that time we talked on the phone my mouth was so dry and I was so nervous. But we both had feelings for each other and wanted to explore the possibilities. We decided that we would be a couple, we knew that we were falling in love with each other and decided that we would take the risk and would explore our love together. We both changed our profiles and didn't really chat there anymore, we chatted through yahoo messenger (day in-day out), emails and phone conversations (bloody phone bills).
At that time she was still working in China but her work contract was almost done and would be going home to the Philippines (August). We decided that we would wait until she got back home before we would meet each other in person. For both of us that was the longest few months of our life. I went to the Philippines to visit Aj last October 29,2007 for about 9 days leaving on November 6, 2007. We can say that it was the best day of our life, finally seeing each other at the airport for the first time, being able to hug and touch her. I remembered feeling a deep joy in my heart, that feeling is love. Aj though it was surreal, like almost unbelievable but it's really happening! for real! :) We spent time with her family(mom and dad), with some relatives and also with her college friends but we also got to spend some quality time with each other, getting to know each other well. We went to Puerto Galera and stayed there for a few days. It was the best time of our life!
Now we are talking, chatting, using emails, webcams, anything and everything just to be together. We just can't stand to be apart from each other. So we always try to make time for each other. We plan on getting married and have talked about this a lot in detail we can't wait to get married and start our life together....
