I may not be one of the more prolific posters on this forum, but anyone who recognizes my name may know that I've written at length about my experience with eHarmony and the success I've had with it. I've been with the same wonderful woman I met through this website for over two and a half years now, have been engaged to her since the end of March, and our wedding is about five months away now.

Well, it looks like this next year is going to be very busy for our family, because last night my brother just popped the question to his girlfriend last night as well! They met on eHarmony a little over a year ago, and it was quickly apparent that they were meant for each other. I've met a few of the women my brother dated over the years, but I could tell this one was different. The most amazing thing about her was how she and her son quickly became a part of our family, even if it wasn't official. I can't say that about any other person he's dated. Obviously, we're all very happy for both of them, and I think my parents owe the folks at eHarmony a big letter of thanks for setting up their two boys.

Anyway, I just wanted to share the happy news with everyone and offer a little bit more encouragement for those of you still looking for that one person.

(Oh, and for those of you wondering, I can tell you that my brother was not matched with his fiancée until about ten months after he signed up. So, hang in there if you're frustrated.)

Dear JFo,

It has always been so wonderful to read your posts about your successful eHarmony experience, and we really appreciate you taking the time to join various discussions to encourage members to stay positive and be patient with the process.

But it is especially wonderful to hear that your brother has also found the Love of his Life on eHarmony!

As you may already be aware, we have a special section on our Success Stories page for multiple successes in a family! These stories have always been written by our members, but, who knows, maybe your parents can be the ones to tell how eHarmomy has brought Love and Joy to their two sons and your family as a whole?

All the best as you prepare for your Spring '10 wedding. Please let us know how your plans are progressing. Also, if your brother and/or his fiancee would like to share more about their story here on eHarmony Advcie, please let them know we'd love to hear from them.

All the best.

Update: The big day for my brother and his fiancée is July 2! With our own wedding set to take place on April 10, it's going to be a busy spring and summer. Thankfully, it's for all the right reasons.

Hi JFo,

Congrats to your brother and his eHarmony fiancee setting a July wedding date!

Yes, it will certainly be exciting with both of you planning your wedding within months of each other, but what another wonderful experience for the two of you to share!

Thanks to taking the time to share this great news with us. Any more details you would like to share about the wedding plans, I for one would love to hear!

All the best,

-Renee
