I had just bought my first computer in
February of 2000.
My boss at work had told me about Yahoo
chatrooms so being curious, I decided to check them out.
Deb & Bobby during their first meeting
I wasn't looking for anything but friendship
and just wanted to have fun. After about 2 months of chatting and making
a lot of friends, I get the IM one night that would change my life
forever.
His name is Bobby and he lives in Texas. I
at the time was living in New York. He was just so different than anyone
I had ever chatted with but I didn't think much of it at the time. We
chatted for about 2-3 hours that first night, just the usual stuff but
he was making me laugh, he was just so much fun.
I didn't even think to add him to my
friend's list that night. Well, the next day, I decided to get a
different screen name just to mess around in. I used my new name for
about a month or so, just talking to new people and having a good time.
One day I decided to go into my first name just to check my mail, since
I hadn't been in it for over a month.
Bobby IM'ED me and asked if I remembered
him and wanted to know where I had been all this time.
I was so surprised to hear from him and he had remembered everything I
had told him about me. He said he had added me to his friend's list that
one night of chatting as he thought I was such a sweety. So there was
how it all started, after that, we chatted everyday it seemed like for
hours, except when he or I was working. I knew there was quite a
distance between us so I really didn't expect what was to come. After
about 4 months of chatting online, I was getting feelings for this guy
and I could just tell in my heart he was feeling the same.
We had so much fun chatting, laughing, we
were so much alike. I was definitely in love with him. The funny thing
is I never showed him a pic of me all this time. I had described myself
to him but anyone can say anything online for that matter. He didn't
seem to care about my looks. I loved that about him. It was who I am
inside that mattered to him. We were best friends and both held onto the
dream of meeting someday. Well,about March 2001, I decided to move to
Kansas from NY as my sister and her husband had moved there. Found me a
job and got my own place in Aug.2001.
On Aug.29th of 2001,my online love of
over a year and half was coming to meet me for the first time. He drove
from Texas to Kansas in about 10 hours. My dream had come true,
something I never thought was possible. He was everything I expected and
more as he told me the same. We hit it off rite from the start. We took
one look at each other and knew we were already deeply in love. The
meeting was so perfect & right, it was like we had known each other
forever.
Bobby continued to come and see me every
month until Aug.2002, then we decided it was time for me to move to
Texas to be with him. I couldn't be happier right now. We are also
planning a May wedding for this year. I love him so much. I thank God
each and every day for bringing us together and having all my dreams
come true. :)
