I love the internet; I always have loved it. I always thought it was the greatest thing that you could instant message someone who was across the country or world. One of the reasons why I'm such a big fan of the internet is because of the unconventional way I was able to meet my husband. No, it wasn't eHarmony.com or match.com, but a Christian singles site where hopefully you could meet someone interesting. It's kind of funny because I honestly was not looking for a boyfriend when I went on there. It seemed whenever I did start dating someone, it just never worked out and I was pretty tired of trying. I was there to meet new people, not really for dating purposes, but to find some young people my age that lived close to me. I lived in Merritt Island, FL and let's just say there are more than enough retired older people there. I wanted to meet people that I could hang out with and have a good time but who also had the same beliefs as I did. I figured if I was able to meet a guy on here and he turned out cool enough to hang out with, I would be able to get introduced to his group of friends (guys and girls) and I would be able to finally have some fun.

It didn't take long to see who was near my area, and there were only a few people. It was quite disappointing, but for some reason or another, my attention was drawn to one particular guy. Yep, you guessed it.....it was Jeremy. I'm pretty sure I emailed him first, but I could be wrong, and we started to email back and forth to each other. He sent me his picture and it wasn't a close up so I couldn't really tell what he looked like. He told me after we were married that when he saw my picture he thought to himself that there was no way that was a recent picture of me because he thought I was too pretty to go on the internet to meet someone. Aww, he's too kind and sweet!!

Anyway, to make a long story short, after conversing back and forth through emails, we decided to meet face to face. I wasn't really too nervous because I figured if we didn't hit it off, then oh well. I wasn't going to sweat it. Of course, I thought to myself that he may be a total freak so I brought my mace with me and was ready to spray him if he tried anything. I let my aunt know that I was going to do this and we were meeting in a public area so I thought it was pretty safe.

When I saw him walking towards me, I was delighted that he was tall and handsome. He had the most beautiful green/blue eyes I had ever seen and I think I was in love from the start. We talked for hours on the beach and we decided to make an official date on Monday.

And the rest is history!!! :)
