It was the best thing I have ever read...

Mainly because I could relate to it. I'm in Australia and I've been chatting to a man over in America for about 8 months now, and we've been talking on the phone for about 4 months, for hours and hours on end.. several times a day!

We just fell in love and neither of us know how it happened, but we did and I've never felt anything to be more right in my life. I love him.

We had discussed all the time about the possibility of meeting next year during their summer and then in about October last year we realised we couldn't wait that long because we loved each other so much...

We're meeting in person in a short time....2 weeks from now I'll finally get to be with him! He paid for half my airfare and everything.

I'm a little nervous about the flying part, but not about meeting him. I just know that he is the one for me. I just wanted to tell you that, I might even post the entire story when I come back after meeting him. I just loved your story though because I could really relate to it...and I just know everything is going to be okay.

And I especially liked reading about the first time you got to talk on the phone with him...and how you loved his accent and didn't really listen to WHAT he was saying as much as HOW he was saying it. I laughed at that because I do the same thing! And get caught every time!

So yeah, the plan is for me to spend the holidays with him and then fly back to Australia, which I'm dreading because I know I'll want to stay. But I've got to sort my job out first and then go back over in May...most likely to stay.

Everyone is pretty good about the whole thing, my family and friends etc. Though at first I know it was hard for mainly my friends to understand how I could love someone I had never met. But they have realised how serious I am about this and they are being really supportive.

Though one friend wasn't really at all and I was so upset and disappointed with her for it. I could understand her point of view and where she was coming from, but what hurt the most was that she couldn't listen to or understand mine.

Everyone is as excited as me...and they are all definitely more nervous than me! I'm not the least bit worried about meeting him because I already know him and we're going to have a fantastic time together! Just scared of the planes!

I know that I'm not crazy though, because I believe so strongly that this is meant to be. And I am so lucky and thankful to have met him because nothing has ever felt so right to me before in my life.

He's a wonderful man. He makes me feel so happy and so good about myself. I just can't wait to be with him.

Thank you for your site... it assured me somehow that we weren't crazy and that everything is going to work out fine.
