| Cobiaman and Yellowgold   
Paul and Dawn a success story
It's been a long three years
At what point do you know you are a success story? like most here I could not understand how two profiles find each other and next thing you hear in the forums is they are madly in love and are prepared to run off into the sunset and start a new life together, packing their bags and heading out! Geez that was strange and even laughable, because they haven't even met yet. Well some actually did that and True Love followed them into the sunset,some thought so but didn't quite make the roster of success. Then those who did make it really have stories to tell
I was at a point when I was ready to give up and move on, like several times before but I came back just by chance I missed her somewhere in the crowd. Then all of a sudden a voice comes from way out in Michigan saying "Hey Cobiaman I think were are a perfect match what do you think". Well my immediate reaction was oh geez a long distance relationship, ya right! a four sentence profile, well she's cute and would probably make a great friend or PC pen pal. I'll answer her email with a question. Okay what makes you think we are the perfect match! Well guess what she answer back with about ten bulleted sentences. I'm thinking Wow that wasn't in her profile so I started with the questions of my own, like what about this and what about that and after about 100 plus emails a few IM's a few phone calls I'm thinking wow what's happening, then I started signing my mail with a quick non committal "Luv ya!" and she came back with her own "Love Ya Too How can This be happening we haven't even met yet.
So I went on a quest to find the perfect you tube video/song that said exactly what I felt and I immediately found a song. The song that struck me was "I Loved you before I met You" and I found it set to the animated movie clips from Aladdin which I have included below.
It was an Ah Ha! moment when I realized that this gal was the exact image and perfectly fit all the dreams and fantasies and the personality I had in visions growing from my childhood through my teens and into my adult world. I had been settling for less than the woman that the Lord had tucked away in His heart for me. The one I had loved but not yet met.
So listen to the words and pay particular attention to the expressions on Aladdin's face as they describe how I feel. The Love of my life and my success story her on DH... it might sound a little crazy but I knew I loved her before I met her. I have been wasting all of my life. Intuition, no, but some things you just don't question. In her eyes I find the missing pieces. In her eyes I saw my future in an instant because I loved her before I met her...

| Paul,
What a beautiful way to express your love. I am so happy for you. You deserve the best and by the sound of your post and the feelings you have expressed you have found the best 'one' for you. I know that feeling of loving someone before you know who they are. I've had that wonderful happiness in my life. It is such a gift from God.
I wish you both that happiness and God's blessing on the special love you have for each other and in your new careers too!
Thank you both for showing all of us here, there is someone out there who is 'the one' and we should never settle for less than that.

| Harley Rider, thanks for the coments and yes I will expect you will find your special guy. Best to be very specific about all the things you have held dear in your visions of who he is from your childhood to your teen years and young adult life. Don't settle for less. The numbers will roll and many will look and after a few "I give up moments" out of no where comes your prince. Best to you
 
Warm Regards,
Paul

| We have set the date . We plan to be married on New Years Eve in a Beach Side Service at Sunset.
This is Dawn getting off the plane in Tampa for our first meeting and all that we had imagined was just multiplied by 10X. I handed her a rose and her smile melted my heart.
And her is a fishing trip that netted each of us three Mangrove Snappers for supper.
we both smile alot for photo shoots and just looking into each others eye knowing this is real, this is the way it is supposed to be.
We both love fishing out on the river known as the Chassahowitzka, her in Florida.
She baits her own hook. Live shrimp today....
Yup I'm a happy camper..

| I can't begin to tell you how happy Angel has made me, ever since I met her, we havn't been apart, and now that we've been married 2 days, I feel like the luckiest guy in the world. To have a partner as careing, and loving as Angel is truely a Godsent gift. I will cherish our love and marriage till the day I die.
